Opslan logo animationI stumbled upon this project and realized how much I still love the mark. It's a nod to the central piece of old floppy disks. Opslan was a side project my brother and I worked on together. Hopefully, it will see the light of day one day. ;-)

TR - Lettering sketchI find it helpful to put every idea on paper, even if I have doubts about the design while doing so. Completing the process often results in an interesting design. For now, it's parked, but I keep looking back at it. I'm curious to see if I will eventually present this to the client.

X - MonogramThis is an unused monogram for a project I was working on. Although I find the shape intriguing, the client and I decided that it is too complex for small sizes, which is how the logo will primarily be used. Despite this, I still believe it has something interesting in there worth exploring.

LogoArchiveI've been involved in building resources for designers since 2011, first with BP&O and later with LogoArchive. LogoArchive is the one I'm most proud of, and humbled to have so many support the project. In short, I wanted to build an archive of historical logos, the biggest online. I've been scanning and digitising these for years, and now have a platform to add these to. Working with logos has had a profound impact on the way I design client logos. I believe that a designer immersing themselves in timeless logos like these will improve. Small caveat. To build something of this scale and over a decade requires a huge effort and resources. It is funded by our generous subscribers, whom allow me to make this full time job. I publish a lot of free stuff on social for anyone that needs inspiration for free. #logos #branding #design

Radinol concept sketchI've always aspired to have my own radio show, and this was a fun, quick exploration of what that could look like visually. While I'm not sure if this is the final design, I liked it enough to share.
