For The Boca Raton Beach Club, Forge explored how materials, forms and finishes could create a design language that feels uniquely connected to this coastal city in sunny South Florida. From rippling panels to fine bronze edging, subtle references to the ocean and horizon are woven throughout the signage program.

Designed to complement rather than compete, each detail adds to the character of the resort, bringing together luxury, landscape and architecture in a cohesive experience.

Guiding visitors through a seaside oasis 🌊

The Boca Raton Beach Club is an iconic beachfront resort and destination with a legacy of coastal comfort in every guest journey.

Forge created an integrated wayfinding and signage program that supports effortless navigation while feeling right at home within the property’s historic architecture and seamless indoor–outdoor living experience.

We’re excited to share a closer look at the wayfinding design narrative within this serene beachfront setting.

A new look for the future of legal careers 👀

Working closely with the Precedent Magazine team, we recently had the pleasure of designing and developing a new job board and careers platform for The Precedent A-List. The refreshed website modernizes a trusted source for lawyers in Canada, making it easier to navigate, easier to manage and future-facing.

Built on a strong technical foundation, the streamlined experience establishes competitive positioning while staying true to the brand’s character and professional audience The Precedent A-List is known for.

Behind every great digital project at Forge, is a truly extraordinary person, and today we’re wishing a Happy Birthday to our favourite (and only) Digital Director, Heather Jarvis! Because today marks her own personal New Year, it’s the perfect time to celebrate her unique personality: from her love of internet exploration, pottery and trinkets, to her devotion to “my gal Hazel” (her cat) and the relaxation arts.

Indoorsy by nature, when she isn’t immersed in the digital realm, you can find her travelling to see unusual attractions, attending elaborate costume parties, or just living her best life to the soundtrack of one Celine Marie Claudette Dion.

And no birthday celebration would be complete without her favourite culinary delights: an ice-cold fountain Coke, and any food that can be served via fountain (cheese and gravy being particular favourites). Heather brings unmatched creativity, humour and a wonderfully unique spark to our team every single day, and we are all the more troubled/delighted for it.

Who’s watching the game? 🇦🇷🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

We designed this continuous line-art mural for First Gulf to celebrate the excitement of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Aiming to capture the fluid energy of the players, we paired a minimalist style with colourful flourishes to bring the spirit of the game to life across their lobby screens. 🎨⚽️

Forge was selected to develop the Wayfinding and Placemaking masterplan for West Lincoln Memorial Hospital in Grimsby, Ontario.

Inspired by the region’s natural landscape and local community, we created themed zones, illustrations and landmarks that foster a sense of comfort, familiarity and belonging.

Historic imagery and community-focused features were thoughtfully integrated to celebrate local stories and create meaningful moments. More than visual elements, these icons became intuitive guides, helping visitors navigate the hospital while overcoming language and cognitive barriers.

We’re proud to have helped shape an environment that supports those who provide and receive care each day. Check out the full case study — link in bio.

From a pilot project with just a few classrooms to a multi-city showcase celebrating nearly 1,000 students, we loved helping Career Education Council’s (CEC) Develop the Future program grow over the years.

We transformed venues across Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal into fully branded, immersive environments. By building a comprehensive framework of physical and digital assets, we also equipped CEC to run these showcases independently moving forward.

Swipe to see the custom environmental graphics, wayfinding, certificates and photo booth props designed to celebrate these next-generation developers after six months of coding with Apple’s Swift curriculum. Explore the full case study–link in bio.

We’re excited to share the second chapter of our seasonal watercolour series for First Gulf. 🌸

As the seasons shift, our digital display wall at the Globe and Mail Centre welcomes a tranquil, atmospheric landscape. Following the aesthetic of our previous autumn mural, this piece brings a sense of renewal to the lobby through soft cherry blossoms and misty mountain vistas. Shimmering ripples catch the light across the 12 panels, creating a fluid, reflective movement that unifies the entire display.

This artwork will run until the last day of spring, with Summer and Winter watercolours still to come.

In keeping with our unofficial tradition of moving offices every few years, it was that time again in 2026. Staying in the same building, Forge shifted our home a few units down at 171 East Liberty.

Our new office has an improved collaborative vibe, bigger windows in the studio and everyone’s favourite amenity—a sink! With this upgrade, we’re quietly hoping fewer team members will be taking forks home with them at the end of the day.

For those who have been with Forge for a while, these moves are a great opportunity to do a deep clean and prioritize what we really need. Hopefully, kilometres of Ethernet cables won’t become de rigueur again in 2027.

It was an all-hands-on-deck affair, with everyone pitching in to get the job done as painlessly as possible, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the new space.
