Brief de Design de Mascotte

Project Overview:

Southern Printing, a full-service print shop on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, is looking for a talented illustrator/designer to create a vintage-inspired mascot for use across our website, packaging, signage, and merchandise.

We’re seeking artwork that captures the spirit of 1950s retro-futurism and industrial Americana — blending the charm of old workshop illustrations with the warmth and professionalism of our modern brand. The design should feel handcrafted, authentic, and timeless — as if pulled straight from a mid-century print shop advertisement.

About Southern Printing:

Founded in 1972, Southern Printing has been a cornerstone of the Mississippi Gulf Coast — serving schools, small businesses, and organizations with screen printing, embroidery, signage, and promotional products. Our brand voice is friendly, professional, and community-minded, with the tagline:
“Quality, Always.”

We’re proud of our Southern heritage and craftsmanship, and we want our mascot and icons to reflect that honest, hardworking energy — approachable, genuine, and built to last.

Design Goals:

We want a design system that communicates:

Craftsmanship & Pride – Skilled, confident, and built on tradition

Southern Hospitality – Friendly, welcoming, and trustworthy

Retro Industrial Aesthetic – Ink textures, halftones, and warm vintage tones

Modern Professionalism – Clean, scalable artwork that fits digital and print
