Wake me up before you logo, don’t leave me hanging on like a yo-yo. Wake me up before you logo, I don’t want to miss it when you hit that high. Wake me up before you logo, ’cause I’m not plannin’ on going solo. Wake me up before you logo, take me dancing tonight, I wanna hit that high, yeah, yeah, yeah, anyways, some first stage logo visuals for you to cast your peepers over.
I like hats, they keep my head warm, I like hats even more when they contain NFC technology. Top cat Rob Wingrove is an astute man and he makes wonderful ideas happen. He asked me to create a web page for his latest enterprise, Capify, and I think it turned out quite nice again. Great idea Rob.
In another life I used to paint. A realm of dragons, dwarves and pickled onion Monster Munch. Anyhoos, I got to re-visit that life, commissioned to create two ‘graffitti’ canvases for a couple of questionable characters in the north east. I enjoyed myself and here lies the results…
A small selection of logo visuals designed for Olivia de Maigret, an Osteopath. She eventually went for the first logo combined with the second logo’s typography. The idea stemmed from the client asking for the logo to contain Leonardo da Vinci’s Vitruvian Man. This isn’t something I would have been able to do for way too many reasons, so using three shapes to represent mind body and soul I recreated the Canon of Proportions. Coincidently the shapes in this composition also form an ‘O’ a ‘D’ and an ‘M’. Did I mention I love creating logos?
My chums over at 3mil really are a great agency/bunch. Personable, creative, and I always enjoy mucking in with them. In this instance I helped out with some pitch visuals and I was particularly happy with the end results. To top it off, they won the pitch. Double champion.
Again, a little design weakling that never made it to the final hurdle, but one of which I have a particular soft spot for. Little tinker.
Now that’s rarer than the World Cup 1986 Uraguay badge foiley Panini sticker (that wasn’t easy to say). Whilst working with the triple talented team at Wireworks I was fortuitous enough to work on a very rewarding project, a web design to document Hector Macleod’s charitable endeavour as he raises money for the amazing Great Ormond Street Hospital. It’s called Hector’s Hike, go pledge your support.
I was lucky enough to design a logo for the wonderful folks at De-commute, a company that measures your carbon footprint and helps you reduce it. A worthy cause I hear you say and I had a ball. Here’s a selection of logos that never made it, poor little souls.
My business cards arrived and I couldn’t be happier with them, which is surprising as I was working with the most difficult client of them all, myself. This did mean I had complete control over the print spec. 540g turquoise GF Smith Colorplan card with white foil pressed into the card for the main of the type, ooooh, dreamy. The guys over at Benwalls printing did a double amazing job and the standard of finish was immaculate.
