Client Appreciation
To celebrate their sponsorship of the iconic Chicago Marathon, LaSalle Bank presented these beautifully packaged paperweights at a pre-race gala to 350 special clients.
The paperweight features the event theme colors, engraving and artist signature on the base, and custom packaging that beautifully protects the gift for traveling home in luggage.

Client Recognition
When Baird & Warner celebrated its 150th year in business, the City of Chicago marked the special occasion by naming a street in its honor.
LaSalle Bank asked Fireborne to design a plaque commemorating their client’s milestone accomplishment.
We designed a unique crystal and stone plaque that features the 150th commemorative logo and honorary street sign.
