This Purse Building Mural is not a typical project that I usually get to work on. But it was such a fun and unique project to be a part of. This project gave me another opportunity to work with Lindsey Edison of Lindsey Edison Branding & Design.
The Purse Building is a historic building in downtown Dallas owned, managed and being renovated by Wildcat Management.
One of my favorite things about this project was that it was all women. Tanya Ragan owns Wildcat Management. She hired Lindsey to design and stage the showroom. Then Lindsey brought me in on the project to help with graphic design.
Additionally women are involved because this building is also the first building in Dallas that was owned by a woman and the focus of the mural in the showroom was Jane Jacobs. Jane Jacobs was an activist with a focus on urban preservation. She was such an important figure in New York City that she has a cameo in seasons 1 and 2 of the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
A Closer Look at The Purse Building Mural
How cool is that custom neon sign that sits just above Jane’s head?
In addition to working on the Purse Building Mural I also worked on the canvases for the display wall outside the showroom. As well as several other signs and items for the walls.
Be sure to head to the Purse Building Instagram account see more pictures of the building as it is now and how it was before Wildcat Management began the restoration to bring her back to her glory! I can’t wait to see who will occupy this historic building in downtown Dallas. What a cool place to get to work!
