Ashland, Oregon, October 13, 2005 — Ashland-based company, Kinesis (
www.kinesisinc.com) was recently honored with first place in the 2005 American Design Awards. The accolade was awarded in the corporate category for the rebranding of Henry Calvin Fabrics (
www.henrycalvin.com), a Medford-based international company. Kinesis is a marketing and graphic design firm that is a leader in providing compelling and effective branding solutions.
"We're truly honored by the awards," said Wendy Maynard, Kinesis Principal. "Our team has such a passion for design and for our clients' success. Henry Calvin's identity was designed completely in-house, spearheaded by our skilled senior designer, Sabrah Maple. This award is particularly meaningful because it comes from our peers — the competition judges are other designers. It affirms what Kinesis is doing for our clients is of national caliber."
Honoring only a small percentage of the many entries, the American Design Awards competition judges creative work from designers both nationally and internationally. Past recipients of the American Design Award have included design for companies such as Nike, Whirlpool, Pabst Brewing Company, Bacardi, Hershey Foods, and Honda.

Founded more than 50 years ago, Henry Calvin Fabrics offers top-of-the-line fabrics such as silks, damasks, linens, and chenilles. Kinesis created a new brand for Henry Calvin to match the elegance and sophistication of its gorgeous products. Rendered in warm colors, the company's new stationery and website were developed to resemble a beautiful tapestry, tying in with Henry Calvin's core products.
