A bright finishing nail symbolizes the attention to detail TJC is known for and is what closes our exclusive presentation system. The case is an elegant letterpress and die-cut box holding "gallery cards" featuring curated panels for the intended audience.
We've designed and used variations of this theme before, with the main goal of encouraging conversations and tailoring presentations to the audience. For TJC, we knew audiences ranged from homeowners planning remodels to architects assessing capabilities and finish quality. These kits can be quickly reconfigured for bathroom and kitchen projects or larger commercial construction jobs. Unlike a brochure, the entire system is too valuable to just flip through once and discard. Instead, gallery cards with notes and details inspire users to revisit and share with others. We originally created this system in 2008, and it has been continuously updated and remains in use today.

Details
Uniquely Built
A bright finishing nail is emblematic of the detail work TJC is known for, and it's what closes our special presentation system. The case is a beautiful letterpress/diecut box holding "gallery cards" featuring curated panels for the intended audience.
We adopted a minimalist approach for the website, featuring a randomized slideshow gallery of stunning projects with simple contact details. For years, we had extensive galleries loaded with details and notes, but clients ended up spending more time browsing the gallery cards after reaching out to TJC. So, it made more sense to focus the site on a series of striking images.
The test video above is for a concept website that illustrates the meticulous attention to process and detail in homebuilding.
TJC's ads have always focused on details and quality finish work. They value long-term relationships with carpenters and skilled crews, some of whom have been with the company for more than twenty years, and that is reflected in the types of projects featured in architectural trades and regional home and lifestyle magazines.
