Speak Up London

A perfectly simple logo that uses a well recognised symbol and creates a new form with it.

APFH

A strong and simple design for a professional business card that's marked by its subtle approach to colour and design.

Hillcrest

A crisp and professional logo that makes a statement with its typeface. I particularly like the simple use of colour to create a distinct aesthetic.

V Logo

I love the geometric conceit of this particular logo, it helps to add depth and give it a certain style that really works. The texture and various shades of colour used add great depth to a simple concept.

Mark by James Viola

A simple gorgeous example of an abstract logo mark. I love the chosen colour palette and the beautiful use of fading to emphasise the curvature of the mark. I particularly enjoy the vaguely confusing logic of the knot-like logo.

Snappr

A bright and engaging site for a service that allows you to upload photos to TwitPic from your mobile. The simplicity and intuitive layout of the site is effective at getting clear information to visitors about the service.

Superbe

A bright and vibrant site for a new interactive design agency. I love the colourful geometric shapes that make up the background. The way the grid interacts with you as you scroll over items works well to intrigue the visitor to the site.

Kisko Labs

A straightforward but effective site for a web development company. The white text works well on the grey background, while the blue colour used throughout is great. I really like the graphic details and attention to layout.

Falcon

A minimal and beautifully coherent logo that reworks a letter concept. I really like the use of colour and curvature to create the 'F'. It's memorable and elegant, a wonderfully effective logo.

Ben Bate

A simple but stylish portfolio site for a designer. The use of a grid gallery works really well here, although some colour wouldn't go amiss. I particularly like the restrained use of text and intuitive layout.

Students Portal

A great web app for the American University Cairo's Student Portal. I love the use of bright and vibrant colours. The interface is supremely intuitive and makes great use of bold icons and shapes.

Discovery History

A simple but extremely effective logo for Discovery History. I like the symbolism of the peeling 'D', as if the surface is rolling back as we delve into the past. The colours work beautifully together and the textured background is great, although it won't work in every situation.

Daniel Büttner

A clean and stylish site for a web designer. The neutral colours and intuitive layout are effective at putting the visitor at ease. I particularly like the interesting navigation bar at the top of the site.

Sylvain Toulouse

A nice looking grid-based portfolio that changes color every time you refresh the page. The hover effects drop the color overlay and show the artwork in its true form. A nice effect that really brings focus to where the mouse is.
