Cohen Hamilton Steger (CHS): Holiday Card Design

Project

View Client

Cohen Hamilton Steger & Co. Inc. takes pride in their expertise and playful spirit. Since 2010, we’ve partnered with this dynamic accounting firm to reimagine holiday greetings, crafting a series of one-of-a-kind digital cards that prove even financial professionals can have fun. Each year came a new creative direction—playful or poetic—building a tradition that clients and partners eagerly anticipate.

"Over the years, we’ve had the opportunity to stretch our creativity and develop unique ways to involve the principals in some fun and festive way."

2024: Warm, Elegant E-Card

In 2024, we embraced simplicity for Cohen Hamilton Steger & Co. Inc.’s holiday greeting. Departing from the animations and videos of recent years, the firm’s clients received a vibrant e-card featuring colour portraits of the team. A heartfelt message—“Happy Holidays and a Joyous New Year”—accompanied the imagery, creating a warm, personal connection that celebrated the people behind the brand.

2023: A Serene Winter Skating Scene

Embracing a more sophisticated vision, the 2023 holiday card sheds portraits in favour of elegance and tranquillity. We designed an aerial view of an ice-covered pond, bordered by snow-laden trees, where a graceful figure skater pirouettes and glides across shimmering ice. The animation captures the season’s serene beauty, culminating in the gentle message, "Peace and Happy Holidays," inscribed on the frozen surface. This card balanced visual artistry with heartfelt sentiment, inviting recipients to pause and appreciate the stillness of winter.

2022: Artistic Garland Animation

2022’s card celebrates both collaboration and creativity. We transformed an original staff member’s hand-drawn garland into a vibrant animated scene, customizing it with the firm’s brand colours and twinkling lights. Gentle snowfall and sequential messages built anticipation, while animated doves carried positive words—"JOY," "HOPE," "LIGHT," and "PEACE"—through the winter air. This sophisticated animation highlighted the value of artistic contribution and technical expertise, creating a magical holiday narrative.

Creativity and Connection Through the Years

By blending playful innovation with evolving sophistication, each card demonstrates how Cohen Hamilton Steger & Co. Inc. keeps tradition fresh and memorable while strengthening connections during the holidays.
