The subject itself invited exploration, interaction and consideration.")

Out of that came a short list of key words. As it turns an image of a mosquito locked out by screen is important. I start sketching. Once I draw the mosquito and shield like screen we realized that we have something. This one I rendered in illustrator and presented to the client. The client thrilled with it except two things. The blue was not dark enough and shield shade was too thick. Of course I adjusted. It is beautiful, it is masculine and it became the symbol for JUD Mückengitter. It is a good logo because we got very clear upfront together what we want to achieve.")

It is not only uniquely expresses the core of the brand that is healing; but also it delivers the message very effectively. I have used simple interlocking lines (abstract mark) to signify healing process in a gentle manner. The icon is sleek and simple. It is precisely this simplicity which allows it to thrive in so many different contexts, to carry the brand on its own (with or without the accompanying word ‘Cardio Structures’).")

I have tried blurred \"Distorted Reality\" monogram. Logo with Modern & technology vibe.")

It is not just show and tell. Design should have a coherent thought behind it. A thought that reveals more subtle forms of conceptual meaning. I walk the client through each design direction I have made and we finally agreed on one that conveys this sense of authority and protection. the final design is strong and authoritative to signify law enforcement, security and reliability. The shield integrated into the text. \"FAST\" emphasized. And the logo signifies redaction in some way.")

I have started with my brainstorming associated the brand with growth, tree of life and cells. Those three words were the key to form the logo.")

It is not just show and tell. Design should have a coherent thought behind it. That was easy one cause the client knows what he exactly wants. So we both agreed on one that conveys this sense of authority and protection. The final design is strong and authoritative to convey security and reliability. The shield integrated into the text. \"Protection\" emphasized.")

I designed decorative part on top and bottom symmetrically with the main design
in between. This T-Shirt design is for writers. I think artistic rather than cool. I have a list of
how to write good. I have choose Edwardian font. It is a classic old style typeface
well suited for the academic and sophistication writers need. It is organic, it is what you see
in things made by human hands, writer's draft. I have centered everything in the middle still organic
design, symmetry in both sides. I have placed narrow gutter at the center to give the eye a focal point,
a place to rest. I love the result it was one of client favorites as well.")
