Branding

I love all forms of creative media but there is something about logo design that I have a particular knack for. Determing the personality and heart of a design system from which everything else grows and then watching it take place has always been very cool to me.

We came up with the idea of a Phoenix rising from the ashes as inspired by Octavia Butler, and the name, logo and all grew from there.
