Dennis Miller, our owner, was one of the first people involved with the idea of Blue Mountain Station, as it came into being through the Port of Columbia. As part of a team that led and supported the mission from concept to completion, Dennis helped shape the eco food park startup and put them on the right path.
Creating the logos and promotional materials used to drum up support and get the surrounding communities involved, Artmil produced business cards, flyers, and two different versions of their website as the project got off the ground and the first building was built. We’ve continued to support their mission over the years, and are proud to be associated with such a unique project.
Dayton, Washington — the location of Blue Mountain Station — is a small town that holds onto the charm from decades past and prides itself on the lovely residents that make it great.
When someone visits Dayton, the first thing they pass when entering town from the south is Blue Mountain Station, and we wanted to capitalize on the “what is that place?” curiosity of those visitors by creating a mobile-friendly website to help answer that question on the go.
We wanted to help create a certain ambiance and experience for those visiting Blue Mountain Station, and we gave input at nearly every stage of development. Designing logos and creating building signage was just a small part of Artmil’s role here.

The original concept revolved around the railroad heritage of Dayton and Columbia County, and the buildings were initially geared towards looking like a vintage train station. We rolled down the tracks with that concept and utilized old railroad logos and signage as inspiration for our early work. Our more recent contributions have been more modern takes, but with an eye looking towards the past, as well.
