The largest group of credit unions in Atlantic Canada required regional promotion of patronage programs, including creative development, copy, and materials.

Since 2000, ACORN has been the key organization in Atlantic Canada for information on organic agriculture, eating organics, and connecting all the parts together.
ACORN asked Parapluie to build an education kit which would act as a focal point and teaching tool for an increasing number of community seed libraries across the region.
They needed an efficient way to share valuable knowledge with the interested public.
The large-format display and related materials are well-organized and tastefully extend the ACORN brand identity by using organic typography, colours, and imagery.

The sometimes arcane field of print production is often misunderstood, and is too often left in the hands of individuals who are not experts in the field. This leads to unwanted expenses due to added time and corrections during the printing process. Since reprints are very expensive, we recommend that you use our print production service — in which every print piece has crisp imagery, accurate colours, and is handled by an ink expert. We maintain a craftsperson's commitment to accurate and knowledgeable reproduction of materials in print.
