Wolf Rock Coffee Roasters is an environmentally-motivated micro-roastery. They profit-share with a wolf-conservation program.
The company owner requested a wolf to be part of the logo. Because of the bond to nature and the name origin, I combined the wolf with a mountain to develop a meaningful and memorable logo that will soon decorate beautiful coffee packagings.
The cooperation with the customer was close and constructive, for which I was very grateful.")

Data management for a company is really a journey in how to manage their digital assets involving multiple applications, teams, and organizations within that company. It can really be hard to navigate that, which was one of the reasons behind the naming pathFinder.
It was also the reason to build the logo around the concept of navigation. The icon shows an abstract sextant symbolizing competent and goal-oriented navigation. In addition, it also consists of an upward arrow, which adds an additional compass/navigation meaning.
The simple and remarkable design transports the core concept of pathFinder perfectly. It was a great collaboration with the client, who liked the concept at first glance.")

WiseWalker stands for well thought-out travel / outdoor products that set themselves apart from ordinary no-name products with special materials, smart/unique features, attractive packaging and beautiful designs.
Smartly combining a mountain motif with the initial letter W, this simple and strong logo fits perfectly with WiseWalker's claim to make the smartest and most beautiful products. I can't wait to get my hands on the first of them - with my logo on it. :-)")

I designed a stylized polar bear as a synonym for guaranteed coldness. In order to underline the technical aspect, I created an angular shape, which is also a reminiscent of the structure of ice cubes.")

The colored grapes forms the initial letter \"V\" while the crowned grapevine conveys highest quality.")

Whippet wanted a sophistic logo with the name giving dog to appear somehow. The logo should communicate both class and flair, to appeal to potential business-partnering companies.
I created a modern future oriented design for them. Clean and memorable. By taking a closer look, one can see that the whippet dog comes with the initial letter W in the negative space. The customer immediately loved the logo. And I myself could not be happier with the result.")

Visitors can use filter criteria to search for watches they are interested in, and then learn more about a single model - be it the dimensions of the case, the history of the model or the watchmaker, etc.
With minimalistic elements, I created a design that shows a clock face with an indication to watch bands on the top and bottom. The central element of the dial is formed by a round S, creating a strong link between the figurative mark and the company name.
With its simple, elegant and high-quality imagery, the logo perfectly embodies the ideals of the Simbri brand. And it looks gorgeous on the header of the Simbri website. :-)")

My logo design is based on the symbolism of a torch, which has a strong meaning in sports. It stands for the achievement of goals, for the pursuit of perfection. Not least because of the Olympic Games this meaning is known to everyone.
Beyond sport, the symbol also works perfectly for the charity aspect as it is associated with enlightenment and hope. Thus the Statue of Liberty, actually \"Liberty Enlightening the World\", lifts her torch. A torch held up symbolizes life, truth and the regenerative power of the flame.
I could tell much more about what is going on in this logo. But I’m limited to 1k characters. I guess you notice the presence of the initial letter A in the symbol?")

CEO Estefano has already generated over 50 million video views and 36k new customers for his own companies. Since I had designed the logo for his previous company, Estefano asked me to also develop the VidLinked logo. The logo should convey: high quality, expensive, serious, excellent and reliable.
Each letter of the logo embodies strength and reliability with its clear contours. With its outwardly raised edges, the V as initial letter becomes the visual equivalent of victory: successful, victorious, excellent. The foundation of the V is reminiscent of a minimalistically abstracted diamond, thus underlining the attributes “high-quality” and “expensive\".
The special V works as great within the wordmark as detached as a standalone symbol which will prove to be very beneficial for use in social media.")

The requirements for the logo were that it should have an icon based on the letter X, which should work both in color and in gray so that it does not clash with the different colors of the universities. At the same time, the icon should be strong enough to work separately from the lettering.
Simple, powerful, and straight to the point. With its strong angles, the logo fits well with the sporting ambition and will to win. The lower arch subliminally reminds of a hill (pedestal, elevation, reaching of goals). Supported by the upper arc and the angles on the left and right, the logo appears focused and targeted. A logo that captures the spirit of sports and combines it with the professionalism of a career platform.")
