A daycare with German language and culture as a major part of their curriculum. I was asked by my then German born Art Director to come up with a logo for them. The company I worked for had already designed the logo for the building they were going to be in and the day care really liked that particular logo. So all I did was create a “kid” version of that logo. The type used was hand drawn using a blunt pencil crayon on very rough paper using my opposite hand. They must really like that logo since they are still using it as is twenty-four years later!

When St Michael and All Angels, a local Anglican parish, decided  to create some forms so parish members could tithe thru electronic money transfers instead of weekly cheques, I was asked to rebuild the graphic digitally. The graphic had been photocopied many, many times throughout the decades and was badly chewed up. I designed them a new one. Since they are a church where tradition is very important, I didn’t deviate too much from what they already had (i.e. a drawing of their church). I just redrew the image using some aging techniques and used some distressed fonts to create the look of ancient timelessness.

This logo was created for some self promotional material. The logo was created by playing around with interlocking shapes to form the “s” and “d” letters. The end result was a pleasing balance of thick and thin shapes that looked original and contemporary. The 3D bevel effect was added in Photoshop.
