Project Overview: Bringing Cottage Country to Kawartha Dairy’s New Location
When Kawartha Dairy—a beloved Canadian family-owned company—decided to enhance its new Kawartha Lakes location, they aimed to capture the essence of cottage life that resonates with their brand heritage. Book An Artist connected Kawartha Dairy with artist Sacha, who brought to life an outdoor mural that echoes the company’s long-standing tradition of “Making Great Family Memories since 1937.” The mural showcases scenic landscapes, a lakeside dock, and the iconic Muskoka chair, all brought together under the Kawartha Dairy logo to create a nostalgic sense of home.
Client Brief and Project Coordinator
Brand Manager Alina Golden had a clear vision: to extend the design of Kawartha Dairy’s new location to reflect the beauty of Ontario’s cottage landscapes. Initially, Alina expressed excitement about the project’s potential and was committed to staying true to Kawartha Dairy’s theme of creating family memories by incorporating key elements, including a dock, a Muskoka chair, and lakeside views. The initial conversation centered on continuity and filling additional space with islands and lakes, leading to a beautiful mural that celebrates Kawartha Dairy’s 80-year legacy.
Execution: Sacha’s Artistic Journey
Artist Sacha crafted a mural that seamlessly extends Kawartha Dairy’s natural, rustic brand into the physical space of their new location. Through detailed communication and an understanding of the client’s heritage, Sacha incorporated a timeless lakeside view with warm, inviting colors that depict the nostalgia of cottage country. The result is a highly detailed mural that combines Kawartha Dairy’s logo with visual elements that resonate with customers, making them feel connected to the brand’s history and its Canadian roots.
Client Feedback: A Piece of Cottage Country in the City
Kawartha Dairy and Alina Golden were thrilled with the outcome. “Sacha was wonderful to work with—she brought our vision to life and was easy to communicate with,” shared Alina. She noted that the mural was exactly what they had hoped for and even exceeded expectations. It not only conveyed the message of cherished family moments but also brought the essence of Ontario’s cottage country into an urban setting, making it a favorite amongst locals and visitors alike.
Type of Art: Outdoor Mural Celebrating Heritage
This large-scale outdoor mural is more than just an artwork; it’s a celebration of Kawartha Dairy’s rich family tradition and community impact. The mural, painted on an exterior wall, stands as a bold testament to their heritage, creatively blending natural landscapes with brand elements. Sacha’s attention to detail and her artistic finesse transformed the mural into a heartfelt tribute to Kawartha Dairy’s 80-year journey.
