Josh Clayton and Todd Metheny recently contracted Design 7 Studio to develop their logo and branding for their new endeavor, Passerby.  The company’s main focus is connecting investors with independent film projects that is based on a crowd-funding model. The logo was inspired by the literal definition of the name, but in the context of the individual pausing mid-stride because of what they are passing by warrants notice and peaks their interest. The logo stresses an certain.. || Continue Reading →

Good logo design can be easily found.  Great logo design is a bit harder to find. Insanely brilliant logo design is a diamond in the rough. Every now and than, I come across a logo that not only catches my eye for its simplicity, which is very crucial for a successful logo solution, but that has such a strong concept and its solution is stunning. Take Nebraska-based graphic designer Sean Heisler for example.  It was his logo design for Killed Productions that first caught my.. || Continue Reading →

Design 7 Studio was recently hired by Erich Orris based out of Rapid City, South Dakota with an interesting project:  To design the logo for a new establishment called “The Cigar Bar”.  The client described the vision for the bar… A customer walks into a somewhat dark and slightly smoky environment, rich chocolate leather sofas are set up all around down a narrow long room.  Animal furs are on the floor and over couches with African masks staring down at you.. || Continue Reading →

Design 7 Studio was recently contracted to design a logo for Eternal Foundations, a Christian-based resource that focuses on home-schooling and small group study materials.  Client and author Susan Gaddis wanted a logo that helped convey longevity, and being deeply grounded in faith. The vision for the logo had such clarity from the beginning, that after just an open conversation and a clear picture of what it needed to be, the logo below was crafted on the first round and only.. || Continue Reading →

What do you get when you take the marvels of science and technology and combine them with the art of great ice cream?  You get the ability to make your own custom flavor of ice cream only a few minutes after you order it. Using the power of the instant freezing properties of liquid nitrogen, owners of Utah’s Fusion Freeze Creamery offer clients the ability not only choose their mix-ins, but the color of their ice cream, and a fusion of flavors that have endless possibilities. .. || Continue Reading →

Recently, acupuncturist Therese Powers appointed Design 7 Studio the task of creating a visual brand for her new San Luis Obispo clinic, SLO Acupuncture and Intergrated Medicine, that she was going to be opening.  Desiring a clean, professional logo, the task was to apply the concept of acupuncture and herbal integrated medicine but with Western clinical approaches.  The client was very partial to logos that had a mono-thickness and contemporary look. The concept for the resulting.. || Continue Reading →

KETCH is an upscale clothing boutique located in the heart of Seattle’s Maritime Ballard district.  Fusing N.Y. and L.A. styles with a vintage-nautical sensibility, the store needed a brand created that would ooze polish, style, and character. That it is where Seattle-based design firm Turnstyle came in.  The design-ninjas up at the top left corner of the nation put their heads together and, in my opinion, hit it out of the park.  From the flourish of Caslon type-foundry.. || Continue Reading →

Occasionally in my field (graphic design) I stumble across something where I go: “man… why didn’t I think of that!”.  Whether it is a creative concept, a headline, a graphic treatment, or a business name. I recently stumbled upon Los Angeles-based branding and web design firm Command-O (CMMD-O) and instantly loved the name (for which I love the thought of implied stealth and strength) and it has such a great use of abbreviation. But what I loved even more.. || Continue Reading →

Time to give a shout out to another graphic designer out there. In this case, my kudos go to Austin, TX-based designer, Karl Hebert. I first stumbled upon his work when I came across the business cards for Pattern Productions, an Austin-based television production company.  He created this while being on staff with Spoonbend. What was nice about this logo and identity project was that the client had zero pre-conceived ideas for their logo.  They just liked the name “Pattern”. .. || Continue Reading →
