Pixallure Design Receives Five First Place Awards from the American Public Transportation Association

[Mobile, AL—August 23, 2005] –Pixallure Design LLC, a Mobile-based design and brand development firm, today announced it received five first place awards for creative excellence in the American Public Transportation Association’s Annual AdWheel Awards Competition.

The winning entries included categories in 1) Advertisement-promotion; 2) Brochure; 3) Illustration; 4) Bus design and 5) Poster. According to Paula Dicks, Marketing Director for The WAVE Transit, “The re-branding
efforts of Pixallure has resulted in increase in ridership of 15 percent, stronger visibility and an overall change of perception of transit in our community. We are thrilled with this award and know it is the result of a lot of hard work.”

The re-branding efforts are part of a long-term strategy designed to educate the business community and others about what services are available, the hours, pricing and how to access the system. Our objective was to introduce the new name/ brand and make the system more inviting for business people. By brightly painting these buses in a water motif, and recapturing space on the sides of the bus for our own promotion (instead of advertising), our strategy was to energize the community about its progressive, forward-thinking transit system.
