Established in 1944, the Otto Bremer Trust provides investment opportunities across the four-state region, from their St Paul, MN base. 

A redesign of the OBT website in 2022 was completed in tandem with a refresh of the brand identity, to better align the organization with its increase in reach across Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana. 

The legacy of the organization’s founder, Otto Bremer, is paired with the natural beauty of these Northern states to create a vibrant, richly unique identity and web presence.

We have worked with o&o studio for several years and appreciate the full-service approach they bring to their work. They have always understood our brand in all its forms—from the graphic presentation to our physical environment. Most recently, Peter helped evolve our brand and redesigned our website, streamlining and simplifying its presentation to reflect the organization OBT is today.
