KMHD 25th Anniversary


The art of improvisation. Jazz and blues represent freedom. A powerful idea that anything is possible.
They are musical forms open to interpretation. Every artist has their own unique approach and vision and these are welcomed by KMHD. KMHD’s 25th anniversary campaign explores and expands on this concept, bringing the concepts of freedom and improvisation to life graphically.

These campaign materials were developed by Plazm with David Kennedy in a reprise of our work ten years ago on the station's 15th anniversary. Plazm's Thomas Bradley did all the doodles. Transport PDX donated time to make the great video spot above.
Founded in 1991 by Portland artists as a creative resource, today Plazm is an award-winning design firm led by creative director Joshua Berger. The annual Plazm magazine publishes challenging and innovative art, design, cultural, and literary works and is distributed worldwide.
