MURAL ILLUSTRATION
Citi Field - New York, NY
The Horseshoe Bar in Citi Field needed to be rebranded from the previous tequila sponsor and I was given the opportunity to create a mural that spoke directly to Mets fans and New Yorkers. The project required a lot of back and forth between our agency, The Mets, and Híjole in order to ensure that every party was represented accurately in the final artwork. The size of the mural wall is 307” x 167”.

SPURS CREATIVE
AT&T Center - San Antonio, TX
The ask was to create a look and feel for the San Antonio Spurs 2023/24 season. It was a challenge to create a balance between brand elements from Híjole and the Spurs. The solution was to use a mix of imagery and high-energy illustrative elements inspired by collage. By using Hijole red we were able to create over-all unity.

HÍJOLE! SOCIAL MEDIA
The requirements of the client was to provide 10 instagram posts per month. The challenge was to juggle all of the sports partnerships, highlight important events, and most importantly, promote Híjole. In order to tackle the challenge we developed an Híjole Social Playbook that would bring unity and consistency to the overall feed. The playbook consisted of photography treatments, Illustrative elements, recipe templates, game day templates and simple animations.
