Ferry Street Coffee Company | Logo Design | Retail Branding
This fledgling coffee roaster and cafe were actually opening in an older section of the community and wanted to visualize a nostalgic feel without appearing as stodgy or low energy. I accomplished the two jobs by means of creating a company logo design that incorporates a man on a high wheel bicycle (aka The Penny Farthing), it is old-fashioned, high energy, and is a classic business image.
Mid-Valley Pathology | Logo Design
Pathology is the science which examines the causes and outcomes of diseases, especially the branch of healthcare which works with the laboratory examination of samplings of human body tissue for diagnostic or forensic intents.
The Mid-Valley Pathology custom logo design I came up with is really the only instance I recall in which I was in a position to integrate a bacteria-laden microscope slide within a logo design.
Normally I attempt not to be extremely literal with a design and to a degree, this specific design approaches the company it serves fairly literally, however it does it in a way that integrates the slide as part of the name so it doesn’t serve so much as an explanation of what Mid-Valley Pathology does so much as acts as an enhancer to the name that makes it more captivating, more attention grabbing and more memorable.
Cool Springz | Logo Design | Retail Branding
The Cool Springz Trampoline Park was a really cool project to work on, probably because a trampoline park is all about fun. It’s additionally a project that is way out of the norm of the types of projects that come my way, I’ve done dozens of logo designs for physicians, dentists, and legal professionals but Cool Springz is without question the only trampoline park which I have ever gotten the privilege to work on.
Given that the name of the company features the word springz in its name the obvious choice would have been to integrate a couple of springs into the design but Cool Springz is a fun destination to go and spring does not actually reflect an atmosphere of fun does it. My thought process on this logo design project went from springs (boring) to what jumps around, kangaroos … but kangaroos are cute and this place is cool, eventually I landed on a green tree frog and a dimensional treatment of the name itself to provide the logo a more dynamic high energy mood.
In the end, Cool Springz ended up loving my design and named the frog Jax and featured him in to everything they utilized for marketing and advertising. I also believe this is the only time that a logo I came up with was turned into a mascot when they had a staff member costume fabricated to look exactly like my frog design.
Travel Don’t Wander | Logo Design | Website Design
Travel Don’t Wander was a logo job I took on for a travel photographer, which is a fairly specialized field of photography and I believe it is a niche profession because travel photographers tend not to shoot locations or things but instead communicate emotional experiences by means of the photos they capture. The idea behind this logo composition was to make use of negative space to convey more than what was visible upon first glance, which I think is representative of almost all professional photographers in that they often convey entire stories using their photography.
It’s said that a picture is worth a 1000 words but I think that some photographs convey a great deal more than that because their photos often have an emotional fullness that can’t be conveyed with just words. I attempted to do something very similar to this logo by employing the positive space in the design to voice one thing and then at the same time using the negative space to expand upon what was communicated through the first impression. I think, in hindsight, that my objective was to both brand this photographer with a memorable Bellflower logo design but also to reveal the depth to her art and in the way that she perceives the world through the lens of her camera.
Coastal Wireless | Logo Design The bulk of logo design jobs that I take on I really relish and the Coastal Wireless project was one that I certainly felt good about, however the client didn’t quite share my excitement for it. I felt really good about the idea of using the seagull silhouette as a stroke in the letter A but my customer, even though he liked the concept, really did not care for my choice of birds. This man truly loathed seagulls, which he referred to as the “rats of the sky”, thankfully the rest of his family did not share his scorn for this specific kind of sea bird. When I turn a concept over to a client I encourage them to share it with colleagues and family as well as with other people that they don’t even know so as to get unbiased opinions on the merit of a concept. Fortunately, he discussed it with his family and they really liked the design and were able to reason with him and get him to sign off on it, but not before he worked me over to insert every other seabird he could think of … ultimately I was able to talk him out of his alternative of a pelican and he proceeded with the original design. Custom logo designs are a strange animal in the design world because the people that have a tendency to hire a professional to design their logo design recognize how essential a logo design is for their organization so they are much more vested in the result. Every logo project possesses it’s share of obstacles, but the largest obstacle is identifying that sweet spot in a design that functions really well at the task it’s required to do in branding a company and also providing the customer the image they see for themselves.
Red Panda Publishers | Logo Design
The book spine is a slender parcel of real estate to work with, nevertheless it really is the most necessary part of a published book considering that it is usually the initial thing a person sees in the book store. Concerning a publishing company, it’s the optimal opportunity that they will likely ever have to advertise their brand and get their logo design in front of the people that shop for actual books.
This three color design is vibrant, picturesque and eye-catching and it gives plenty of space for the title and the author’s name.
Air LA | Logo Design
Airlines arrive and go yet it seems like that in many occurrences one of the aspects people often tend to recall the most are their logos. The Air LA logo design was done for a modest startup commuter/shuttle airline company located in LA and while I’m not sure it actually “took off” their custom logo didn’t slow them. The bookend A’s in their brand lent itself well to imparting a spirit of air travel and it was surely a winner.
Vintage Case | Logo Design
Vintage case focused in brand new cases for music instruments, which looked to be vintage cases. For this custom logo concept I strove to come up with a logo that possessed a fluid vintage feel to it and could easily be utilized for anything from a web site to a label on brand new cases that looked like they were from another era.
Kujak Orthodontics | Logo Design | Sign Design
Dental care logo designs can easily be one of the most challenging and difficult logo design jobs because it seems that every single dentist features a smile, a tooth, a smiling tooth, or a toothy smile in their design. Dentistry business logos are one of the very most cliche ridden professions when it comes to small business marketing, if dining establishments approached their advertising in the very same way dental professionals do every one of their company logos would definitely be a picture trying to explain something they served, McDonalds would probably have a picture of a potato and a cow.
I recognize the thinking behind adding a likeness of something mouth associated to a dentist’s company logo nevertheless it has to be done subtly or it will just look like every other clipart dental professionals logo that litter the branding landscape of the dentistry industry.
I really love doing dentist logo designs because it challenges me to come up with a design that implies dentistry or a specific area of dentistry like orthodontics without resorting to the clichéd solution that so many dentists settle on.
Kujak Orthodontics delivered such an opportunity and ultimately I created a concept that doesn’t have a solitary smile or a tooth in it, but even though they aren’t obvious, they are still suggested in the design. When I turned this particular concept over to the client the only smile that was apparent was really the smile on Dr. Kujak’s face.
William McNally | Logo Design | Branding
The William McNally Family Foundation contacted ImageCo to help them come up with a logo that would be illustrative of the love that William McNally had for the families in his city. Many logos with the name “family” in them tend to contain pictures of a happy family, a cliche heavy strategy to any logo design is to be very literal pertaining to what the name says or the industry it represents. I’ve discovered that the best concepts are the ones that are downplayed and never hit the viewer on the head with what the business or institution wants to convey.
The McNally Foundation’s name offered a unique opportunity to do a custom logo design which conveyed that they were about families without being openly corny about it. The aim of a logo is to be remembered and recognized and if the designer attempts to use the logo to summarize specifically how people should think or feel they don’t understand the purpose of a logo. If you have to ponder a logo design to understand what it means, it has fallen short, a logo needs to be immediately understood and a logo design that illustrates itself won’t have the opportunity to be comprehended.
Wild Orchid Studio | Logo Design Project
Wild Orchid Studios required a logo design that conveyed a spirit of tranquility and elegance for their new hair salon. I created a concept which didn’t go the obvious course of creating just a stylized orchid but rather crafted a business logo which suggested a flower in the pattern of a swirl featured into the letter O in the name and by placing attention on the logo design along with the silhouette of a hummingbird floating above the image itself. The obvious path in designing a business logo is usually the wrong route and in this case, the design ended up not being about the flower but alternately laid the attention on the feeling that they wanted to forecast to their customers.
Dazzo Arabians | Logo Design
ImageCo developed a unique logo concept tailored to embody the unique physical traits of the Arabian type of equines. By having a distinctive head form and very high tail carriage, the Arabian is one of the very most immediately recognizable horse lineages in the whole world.

Smart Kernels | Logo Design
A kernel is the principal component of an operating system (OS). Typically, the kernel is responsible for memory administration, process and task management, and hard drive managing. The kernel attaches the system hardware to the application software. In other words a kernel is {essentially|quite literally a bridge that serves as a bridge in between the software and computer hardware.
The logo design I came up with for Smart Kernels was based on an actual bridge that is situated a couple of miles from the offices of Smart kernels. It’s a logo design that doesn’t attempt to identify anything to anyone regarding what business they are in or how it relates to their specific location. However, it represented something to the business owner of the business and in quite a few cases the meaning supporting a logo design is just as important as how it brands the organization it stands for.
