Cool Points
I got to see my logo projected on a large screen in a London venue.
Ideation
I started by asking the band a lot of questions about what they wanted from their logo. Together we created a mood board, which I then used to explore ideas through sketching.
Logo Design
We wanted the logo to be as bold and legible as possible, resulting in us keeping a simplistic approach and very clean aesthetic.

From t-shirts to promotional materials, I was involved in designing a large variety of content for the band that included the new logo. Below are various examples of this work.
