Why the Piano?

Because it’s mine. Because I play it every day. And ... Because creativity—whether in music, design, or branding—is about rhythm, intuition, and expression. My concert grand isn’t just an instrument; it’s a mindset—a reminder that the best ideas flow from passion, precision, and the art of play. It helps me sidestep the ordinary, break from sameness, and compose something truly original—whether in melody or in brand identity.

Creativity has always been my driving force—transforming visions, values, and ideas into compelling brands. With experience as a creative director, marketing consultant, book publisher, record producer, and musician, I bring a unique blend of strategy and artistry to every project. Always in pursuit of ‘different,’ I refine the process of uncovering the storylines that shape distinctive brands. And while my B.Comm. and B.Music add credibility, a conversation says even more.

Oh yes – and Vancouver? Born, raised and still my home, where creativity and business come to life.

“I had the pleasure of working with Colin and Dob Creative to revitalize my real estate brand, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome. Having long admired HIS unique, 'outside the box' approach to branding, collaborating with Colin was a transformative experience. His easygoing style, creativity, and innovative ideas turned the ordinary into something special.”

“From the moment I set foot in Colin’s amazing studio, I sensed that a novel approach to my branding concerns was about to happen. We explored a number of issues and approaches and through the process I became totally comfortable with my final brand choice. Understanding, thorough and always communicative, Colin brought a whole new meaning to what ‘creative’ should be.”
