Nice To Meet You!
Thank you for having us here as guests at the 4th Annual Westside Tourism Symposium.
We’re happy to have this opportunity to share what we do with you here, but more importantly, we’re here to listen and learn about your businesses and the places you call home in Westside. All of your stories will help us create branding that shows who you are to your communities and visitors.

INDIGENO TRAVEL
Vincent Design worked on the design and development of Indigeno Travel’s website to highlight the company’s abilities to present bold, socially responsible travel opportunities for Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians to come together in the spirit of Reconciliation.
SHAWANAGA ISLAND
Shawanaga First Nation is the steward of an Indigenous Protected and Conserved Area (IPCA), a role that acknowledges their history and rights and responsibilities as keepers of the Shawanaga Island. They needed a logo and website to help share their story and ongoing efforts to protect the land.
The design represents the creation story of Turtle Island, with the logo depicting clan animals significant to the Shawanaga First Nation. Meanwhile, the development of the website included practical tools for traveling to the island, booking a campsite and research updates.
FISHERIES AND OCEANS CANADA

Share your story
Please share your story with us. Our Vincent Design team members Shaun, Jewel and Claudine are here for the events at the Symposium, but please also feel free to stop by our mobile office camper at the foot of the hill, or pull us aside for a fireside chat or conversation around the dining room table or under the stars.
Meet our team
Shaun Vincent
Growing up included spending time with family in the Métis community of St. Laurent, located on the southeast shore of Lake Manitoba, where Métis people lived since the 1800s. Shaun is the latest generation to care for land there, and where he feels most at home. As an Elder once told him, “the land knows your feet here.”
He founded Vincent Design Inc. in 2007, after several years working in the design industry. It was in those early years of his career that he saw the need for representational design. It became the driving force for striking out on his own, building a branding and marketing firm with a focus on promoting Indigenous communities, organizations, and companies.
Over his career, Shaun has designed hundreds of logos, specializing in those that require a deep understanding and sensitivity to the people and stories they represent.
On the land, in all seasons
