Re: Reference Letter
To whom it may concern:
Shanon Larimer has been a strong partner and steward of the ZOM Living brand for nearly a decade. In
2017, he provided creative guidance on a major overhaul of our company website, giving it a fresh new
level of sophistication. As we marked ZOM’s 40th anniversary year in 2018, Shanon and his team further
evolved our brand and designed and published a commemorative limited-edition coffee-table book
celebrating our accomplishments in commercial design. The publication included a series of custom
illustrations, commissioned art, and historical photographs offering a glimpse into our company’s story
and inspirations. This milestone work has elevated our brand and as a gift to our many partners and
vendors has enhanced our key business relationships.
Partnering with Larimer & Company has allowed us to super-charge our internal teams and work with
some of the most experienced strategists and designers to redefine luxury living. The excellence that
Shanon and his team continue to bring to ZOM raises the bar on everything from ideation and strategy
to design and development across our branded content.
Over the last decade, Shanon and his team have worked with us to strategically market luxury
multifamily and mixed-use development investment opportunities throughout the US for capital
funding. He works hand-in-hand with our in-house teams to conceptualize and design venture
opportunity and construction financing collaterals that have been instrumental in securing financings on
ZOM’s multi-million dollar development projects, including a Class-A high-rise at Miami Worldcenter,
America’s second-largest mixed-use urban development – the biggest building project in Florida and
Miami history, and also Solitair, a 50-story Class-A luxury multifamily high-rise adjacent to Brickell City
Centre. He also provides creative inspiration in the production of our annual news magazine, ZOM
Living, which uniquely showcases ZOM’s most recent body of work.
It is with great pleasure that I confidently recommend Shanon and his company for branding and
identity development services. He and his team are able to digest complex content with precision and
deliver assets that are both rich in content and physically dynamic, without ever compromising quality.
Sincerely,
Samuel C. Stephens, III
Chief Investment Officer
