The type on this works very effectively. The Grey and red contrasts really well together and the way type is layed out works nicely together.

Coffee Island Business Cards

Ive been working on some business card ideas for the coffe island. This is what i have come up with so far.

Bon Vivant

After meeting up with my cousin i got my first live project from her. The brief was to design a logo for a French insipred Cocktail bar and tapas Joint.

This was information from the client to choose from one of the names below:

tableau [n. ta-BLOW or TA-blow] A tableau is a striking or artistic grouping of people or things in a picture or a dramatic scene. A presentation of a scene by a group of people who pose appropriately and remain silent and motionless is also called a tableau. In this case it is an abbreviation of the French tableau vivant (living picture).
Tableau traces back to the Latin tabula (a board or plank, hence a slab for writing on) but it entered English via the French. It has been in use in English since the late 17th century. Photographer Sandy Skoglund uses a tableau technique: http://www.kcad.edu/Gallery.finals/exhibitions/skoglund/skoglund.html.


bon vivant [n. BAWN vee-VAHN] A bon vivant is a person who is devoted to the finer things in life, especially good food and drink. Example: "She enjoyed visiting her uncle the bon vivant, who always provided fine wine and plenty of rich foods." Bon vivant is a French phrase combining bon (good or favorable) and vivant (living, healthy, animated). Vivant is the present participle of the French verb vivre (to live). Near synonyms include epicure and gourmand.

This was my logo concepts i sent:

Coffee Island

Over the summer i was asked by a friend to design a logo for a new coffee shop he bought in Salford. His coffee shop is located right outside Salford train station so he wanted something which was going to catch peoples atention as they ran to catch the train to their next meeting! Below a few photo's of his coffee shop.





Here are my concept ideas and final chosen logo by my client at the bottom.

Meeting with a freelance designer

Over the summer i also got the chance to meet up with my cousin, a freelance graphic designer in Leicester. She has recently set up her own company, five five design and it was really good having a chat with her! She showed me samples of her work and gave me some really good advice on how to tackle job situations after uni. She also said she was happy to pass me down any live briefs she got so i could have a crack at it to see what i can come up with which i think is a really good opportunity for me. Below are business cards and her flyer which she gave me too!
