Toon — Thu, 31 Jul 2014 10:36:27 +0000

I was approached to be the logo and graphic designer for a Paris based Wine Distributor who delivers French and Italian wines to European restaurants.

The company have been selling quality premium wines to passionate people for 12 years, they wanted us to create an unforgettable brand that would reach European customers with strong purchasing power. The name Emovino stands for Emo for emotion and mo for move, we tried to include in the mark the letter E but also the feeling of delivery and wine storage.

Emovino Wine Logo Design…

The logo needed to look unique, elegant and luxurious but also simple enough to work in any colour and as a monotone.

Here is the final logo design as well as the logo in use with the company business cards, presentation folders, wine bottles, delivery boxes and mobile trading application:

Le-Lobster Bistro, Liverpool – Logo Design

Toon — Thu, 31 Jul 2014 13:04:06 +0000

We recently completed a logo design for a new UK Bar and Bistro called Le-Lobster, it is the first of what will become part of a chain of up-market bars that will be built in many UK cities and towns.

The client wanted a more traditional logo than most new bars but still kept very minimal and classy, this was achieved by using a very simple and easily recognizable icon with a very light serif type to give it a timeless and up-market feel.

Self-Taught Graphic Designer

Toon — Fri, 08 Aug 2014 11:14:04 +0000

People often ask me if I went to University to become a Graphic Designer, when I say I didn’t, they say…

Oh, then you’re self-taught?

I never see myself as self-taught, ever. The industry has taught me, the high standards that other designers set teach me, people that have exhausted every design possibility before me shape my thinking and teach me to drive forward and improve.

Self-taught is an odd phrase and I know people only really mean not getting a degree but it still sounds quite odd. When I went into the industry as a teenager I knew very little, I had very basic skills and it was the people around me that shaped my skills as a designer and other designers in the industry that made we want to and have to improve my design skills.

This infographic from the Web Designer Depot explains the subject quite well:
