Logo Design Work


Designing a logo is always full of challenges. You got a Design Brief and you have to create the finished deliverable... its fun!


Below here is a latest logo design model done for a capital market based company who were just launching. Submitted logo's and their concept note:
Option 1- Logic: This a typo logo with graphical representation of a globe & a key. They success for opening global opportunities lies within the key, and in between them AN CAPITAL serves as a bridge. Choices made through the company will shape global destiny.

Option 2- Logic: This a typo logo with a graph representation of going upward, “AN” stays as prominent while the graph beside represents sense of achievement.
Option 3- Logic: N basically represents the fast track of the market. The upward arrow represents the up’s & down’s of business, but, ends up going upward. There is a fine balance between going up & down in the graph, which denotes stability, which can be achieved through the company.  
Option 4- Logic: This a graphic logo with typo representation of a upward graph & a key, “AN” lies within the graph and ends up going upward. While the key symbolizes open opportunities.
Option 5- Logic: This a typo logo with a graph representation of going upward, “AN” stays as prominent while the graph beside represents sense of upward achievement.
Option 6- Logic: This is a creative logo where 3 symbols are there. Human shape, arrows & swoosh. Human shape depicts that its “all about people”, arrow “going upward”, swoosh “under the special care” that “AN” offers. 
The job was done! They selected the 4th Option from top..a few touch up's  and finally ended up designing their stationery. It was fun!

Window Display Food

Window Decor & Display


This window is one of the trademark for the history of Food Bazaar - A part of Future Group Venture, designed by me and executed at floor level. It was a great pleasure to see the concept of food is taking a different turn all together.


Though Visual Merchandising has never been appreciated much in India, but, the feeling and the challenge to design such a window which is different and a bold step in Indian Food Retail.

Unique Easter Egg Decorating Ideas


Decor Ideas for your home do not have to break the bank. If you are looking for some cool, decorating ideas you have never considered, you've come to the right place. Accessorizing a room is probably one of my most favorite aspects of the design process.

IDEA GARAGE: #1:

You'll need:
Eggs 
Dry Twigs
Fabric Color
Brush
Scissors
Pencil
Red Ribbon 

(if you want to explore!)
a
What to do: Dye egg blue and let dry completely. Draw designs lightly with pencils what ever you want. First paint the large parts, Let dry. Then the small finishing parts, Let dry. Place the eggs in the nest and tie a not with red ribbon for finishing touch.a
Tips: You will need soft dry twigs for the nest. First start with the base structure, you can also put a coconut half round shell or any other round object to get the shape, Wrap the twig, then use black thread (if you think, its not going to last!) to tie the twigs together, spread a little water on the twigs, then give finishing touch with the scissors by cutting the unwanted twigs. Thats it!

Create Your Own Decor


Perhaps you have an idea for the perfect piece to complete the room but you can not find it. Create It! This doesn't mean designing and building a piece from scratch, although if you are able, go for it. This simply may be customizing a piece you find to make it "work" with your design style.
a
It could also be reinventing an item as decor; something I enjoy doing. I utilize a lot of natural accents for my decor which creates the organic feel I appreciate. Much of these items are free from nature and make beautiful displays.
The above decor item is made of wood slash: 3 pcs of wood slash (1 inch height, 3 different diameter of slices put up together, finishing with 3 small sticks) you can call it what you want, but may look attractive in your bathroom or showcase with glass candle in living room.
a
Restore, Reuse, Reinvent is easily achieved when it comes to decor ideas and decorating. We understand how decor can be reinvented as mentioned above with natural decor. What about reused or restored decor? Reused decor could be considered an antique, for instance, that has been reclaimed and given a "new life" in a modern home.
a
It could be an old wooden frames or tree leaves that is restored to like-new condition. Of course if you are like me, you prefer the weathered, rustic patina it may currently have, thus it is just reused as in many of my green decorating examples.
The Photo Frames are excellent idea for new concept decorations, simply use old photo frames and combination of different leaves, the main concept is composition of leaves and the background wall you are using to put them and having fun at the same time!

Create! What ever you can! - Roy - (If you liked it...pls post it)
