Denise Saulnier Design

Denise Saulnier Design Denise Saulnier specializes in museum design, signage design and branding. Welcome to my page. I have been working as a designer since 1973.

It has a sample of some of my completed projects in the areas of exhibition design and interpretive writing, sign design and brand design. I was co-founder and principal at Communication Design Group (CDG Management, Inc.) from 1975 until 2012, when the firm ceased operations. Since then, I've worked under the name Denise Saulnier Design. My clients are community groups, regional tourism authoriti

As a graphic designer with over 40 years experience, I do brand design, print and signage design as well. I hope you enjoy seeing my work.

Une des p'tits Sémides...

DENISE SAULNIER fut née en 1952 à St. Benoni, fille de Henry et de Frances (LeBlanc) Saulnier. Elle a passé sa jeunesse en jouant avec ses cousins et cousines sur la butte des Sémides. À l’âge de 17 ans, Denise se rend à Halifax où elle entreprend ses études en graphisme au Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. Elle obtient son diplôme en 1973 avec un Bachelor of Design in Visual Communications. Denise est nommée membre et Fellow de la Society of Graphic Designers of Canada en 1985.

Pendant 35 ans, Denise était « Design Director » au sein d'une compagnie renommée dans le domaine du graphisme « Communication Design Group » et depuis six ans elle dirige sa propre entreprise : Denise Saulnier Design. Lors des vingt dernières années, Denise s’est surtout dévouée à des projets touristiques et communautaires importants destinés à enrichir l’expérience touristique et faisant la promotion du talent et de la beauté dans les communautés. Nombreux de ces projets visent la promotion de la culture acadienne en Nouvelle-Écosse, et surtout celle de sa communauté natale : le Rendez-vous de la Baie, le projet Les Sentiers du Petit-Bois et le nouveau phare à la Pointe, ainsi que le parc au Cap Sainte-Marie. Dans la région de Chéticamp, elle a œuvré dans la création du Centre de la Mi-carème et à la refonte des exhibitions au Centre des Trois-Pignons.

Étant une des P’tits Sémides, la musique coule dans son sang. Elle joue du piano, du violon, de la mandoline et de la guitare, étant autodidacte dans tous ces instruments. Denise participe à divers jam sessions à travers la province pendant lesquels elle joue de la musique traditionnelle, cadienne et irlandaise. On peut l’écouter « jammer » avec ses frères à chaque été et à Noël. Pour Denise, la musique, qui fait partie de sa vie quotidienne, est une composante intégrale de la culture.

Silver Donald Cameron's latest book Warrior Lawyers is all about the lawyers in the world who are fighting in the courts against corporations that despoil the environment. As an interpretive designer, I don't often design for print these days. Here's the cover design.

TBT... My very first design project, after graduating from design school in 1973, was this logo for Atlantic Illumination, a company (owned by Richard Bonner) that did stage, music and special events lighting. That was 43 years ago. They're still in business today, by the way.
