Introducing Maven: A New Brand for Sign Design and Implementation Excellence, Rooted in Legacy and Driven by Vision

Monigle, the Denver and New York-based branding agency, proudly announces the launch of Maven, a standalone brand for sign design and implementation specializing in large-scale signage conversions. Maven excels in serving industries such as healthcare, financial services, and more, setting new standards in delivering impactful, tailored facility signage solutions. 

Maven builds on Monigle’s 50-year legacy of expertise in environmental branding, sign design, and implementation consulting. As an independent brand, Maven is poised to set new standards in the signage industry, combining creative excellence, technical expertise, and seamless execution to deliver visibly better signage solutions. With a proven track record of collaborating with marquee clients like Bank of America, GE, Avis, PNC Bank, HCA, and more, this move represents a strategic evolution, sharpening Maven’s focus and expanding opportunities for innovation and growth.

“This launch reflects our commitment to the incredible talent within our environmental branding team,” said Gunnar Jacobs, Principal at Monigle. “Maven will have the freedom to innovate, build new partnerships, and deliver visibly better solutions. We’re excited to see Maven thrive as an independent brand and lead high-impact client projects.”

Maven is guided by CEO Ryan Kovalak, a veteran of the branding industry. Over the past five years, he has led the environmental and experiential design practice at Monigle. Prior to that, he spent more than a decade as a Partner at Lippincott, where he played a pivotal role in shaping their Experience Innovation practice group.

“The decision to launch Maven is about unlocking potential and preparing for the future,” said Kovalak. “With Maven, we can focus entirely on bringing brands to life through visionary sign design and seamless execution. This move enables us to deepen our investment in talent, technology, and the exceptional service our clients rely on. We’re excited to build on our legacy and help clients achieve their facility branding goals and forging stronger connections with their audiences.”
