The Chrislip on Main Identity Illustration

The Chrislip on Main is a newly restored historic home in the heart of Philippi, WV, offering guests a unique AirBnB experience that blends 19th-century charm with thoughtful modern renovations. The goal of this illustration project was to create a visual identity that captures the essence of the home—its architectural character, historical significance, and inviting elegance—while providing a signature graphic for use across digital listings, print materials, and signage.

Design Elements
Line Illustration:
A fine-line drawing of the home was created to showcase its original architecture and restored features. The style is clean and minimal, allowing the historic structure to shine while keeping the aesthetic lightweight and modern.

Typography:
The name “The Chrislip on Main” is centered beneath the illustration, set in a classic sans serif typeface to reflect modernity and simplicity. An elegant, flowing script font accompanies the main title to evoke the home’s historical roots and personal warmth, subtly suggesting both sophistication and approachability.

Color Palette (Optional):
If color is used, a neutral or heritage-inspired palette—such as soft charcoal, warm beige, or muted green—supports the natural elegance of the design without distracting from the illustration.

Final Result
The final artwork delivers a refined, welcoming brand mark for The Chrislip on Main that can be seamlessly applied across booking platforms, welcome signage, guest guides, and merchandise. It tells the story of the home visually—honoring its past, celebrating its rebirth, and inviting travelers into a unique and thoughtfully curated stay.
