The main aim was to create a logo different from the classic 'text below icon' and try and make both elements work with one another.
I decided to use gradients in order to add some depth, as I thought that made the bird look alive and more dynamic.
I also customised the font in order to add to the memorability and uniqueness of the logo.")

I decided to create a character that would perfectly match the company name so I came up with the idea of a 'crazy scientist' with flares in his working glasses to show the creation process and inspiration and then I chose to use red on black to create the atmosphere of inspiration and concentration.")

At the time I was experimenting and learning illustration techniques and I wanted to come up with a clever and clean illustrative logo. I chose a colour palette that creates an atmosphere of mystery and outer space.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/63/63018/attachment_63018157 "A combination of a quiff, (also the logo of the institution in which the project is based) and a wolf. I aimed for the perfect flow of the transfer from one element to another in order for the concept to feel and look as a whole. I made the logo simple and clean as I figured that the owner would want it printed on a various range of media, including posters and clothing. The lack of unnecessary detail allows the company to use the logo in a smaller size and not loose from quality and clearness.")

The CH stated that the main goal of the company is to become the only source of providing all sorts of web applications.
I decided that a modern, techy yet clean and professional type would describe the company best and match their ideology.
I created a custom type consisting of a neutral base plus angular lines that created that techy, web feeling. Used different thickness of the lines to separate the word 'app' in order to make clear what the company offers.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/77/77164/attachment_77164813 "The CH asked for a Bauhaus style logo. I came up with a custom type inspired by Bauhaus typography that I found while doing my research. I arranged every element in such a way that it look natural and precise at the same time. The Bauhaus rule is to only keep what is needed, so I made it as simple as possible, yet as unique and fresh as possible at the same time.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/71/71750/attachment_71750271 "A classic, modernised vintage logo concept. I added a slight glowing effect in the shape of the dog in order to create a feeling of discipline and success, and also to add to the uniqueness of the logo.
My main goal was to keep it simple, yet with some depth and uniqueness.
The dog, its stance and everything altogether makes the logo highly memorable and recognisable.
The dog has a straight, healthy, one would say royal kind of stance, the kind of stance a well educated dog would have and clients would trust them their dogs for.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/67/67262/attachment_67262244 "The CH stated in the brief that they would like a recreation of their old logo, which was a circle with 4 horns. I decided to modernise it and create a custom font that would match the music they are playing and the industry they work in. After doing some research, and based on my music band logo experience, I went for a symmetric logo design, with a shape of a hanging man as requested by the CH. I chose a colour palette that would create an atmosphere of doom and horror, and, using Adobe Photoshop added a grungy texture that finished the look. In the end, the logo resembled the old symbol that they had plus their name symetrically incorporated in it.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/65/65486/attachment_65486028 "Slice 19 is a pizza place on at a golf course. Based on design examples provided in the brief I decided to go for a fun, perky looking logo.
At the time I was experimenting with illustration, and I went for a fun illustrative logo. My main aim though was to keep the concept clean and clear.
The number 19 used in the name is a simplified, outline version of the logo, which is a pizza golf flag and a golf ball that resembles number 9.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/71/71273/attachment_71273744 "I decided that since craftsmen are doing hand-made things and only work using their hands using various instruments, a hand icon would be appropriate for the logo. It's a mobile app connecting craftsmen and potential customers online and I went for a flat, minimal design to match the web and mobile actual trends. And, to add some uniqueness and memorability to the logo and make it stand out of the other flat designs, I've concentrated more on a custom font.
I also provided an app icon for them to use for their app.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/71/71838/attachment_71838066 "As it's a logo for a gaming industry, and based on the cartoon-ish logo examples the CH provided in the brief, I decided to go for a fun, clever logo that would be consisting of a joystick and streaming symbols, which I decided would be a play, pause and record buttons.
Using my grids technique, I was able to arrange all the elements in such a way that the logo looks natural, proportional and works well as a whole concept. It also helped me match the thickness of the font with the lines in the logo.
The small square corners add to the symbols of video streaming.
I chose to use red as it's an energetic and dynamic colour, which I though matches the industry and company's ideas.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/62/62714/attachment_62714032 "The CH asked for a logo that he could use on his Pats Army fan blog, that will look like the team's logo yet be different. After some research on the team and their logo, I created a colour palette that helped make the connection between my logo and the original. I also used the symbolic hat that fans wear on matches and a football on the background to make it obvious what the logo is for and what industry it is in. Using basic shapes I created the silhouette of a fan and the city skyline on the background of where the team originates. All in all a clean concept that matches the industry and the NFL spirit.")
Chi siamo
While still a teenager I used to design for the local underground hardcore music scene. I did all the work for free, me being a part of it myself and friends with most of the musicians. That was sort of a charity act from me into the further growing of the local underground music industry.
Now I'm 20, studying Graphic Design at Oxford Brookes, UK. I've been working as a freelancer for some good years now with hundreds of customers from all around the world.

"Awesome job! Not only Suchmaks came out with a lot of well thought ideas, but once the best draft was chosen, he has been able to refine it up to the point it was perfect.
Fast communication and ultra-quick turnaround. Highly recommended! Thanks!"
