We were inspired by the blue-collar neighborhood of St. Johns, the stripped down nature of two-stroke racing motorcycles, and Italian cafes when we created this brand.

We went all out knowing 2 Stroke needed depth with graphics for various applications, always keeping in mind their commitment to adding life to its neighborhood by way of classic style, comfortable gathering spaces, collaboration, and community.
“Having been lucky enough to collaborate with Factory North on a number of projects over the last five years, we've come to understand the value in creating a brand, rather than just starting a company. With each new endeavor, Tyler and Nicole have patiently walked us through the process of developing a unique brand identity and have called out opportunities to apply fresh perspectives and inspire emotional connectivity. While Portland is home to many great branding firms, copious with talented designers and forward thinkers, Factory North is universally regarded among the finest.”
