These are few of the projects on which I have been working in the last months. There is much more to show but I have been very busy lately with new projects and TheInkNest.
1. Logo and banner design for The Pancake Events. Lauren likes feminine floral and elegant designs.
2. Logo and website graphic design for Mon Petit Monde. Swiss shop with assortment of children furniture and nursery decor. The owner, Justyna is a work-at-home-mom who started a new business. It is always inspiring to work with such women and to exchange baby photos.
3. Banner design for Planeta Vino. I was craving vacation while designing this banner. I don’t want to say I was craving wine because that would sound a bit like alcoholism. But defininetly the feeling of sipping wine in Spain in a warm sunny afternoon.
It is a pleasure to write about the redesign of Harmony Tree Learning Center’s logo and website. The center offers tutoring programs to school age students. They were looking for some whimsical, welcoming graphics, artistic organic logo, easy navigation for the website and more professional, polished look all around.
For this project I asked my sister Iglika to join me in creating the designs. She has such a happy and cute style of illustrating children and was perfect for this job. With my art direction she created some beautiful images which I implemented in the logo and website.
The whole process was smooth and Grace (who supervised our work) gave us plenty of creative freedom. Visit the website for some eye candy and more information:

Design Garden (Sabina) has been amazing to work with. She designed our learning center’s website and was able to capture the feeling I wanted when people visited our site. She was very responsive during the process and her communication and follow ups were great! She really paid attention to what I wanted for the site & gave great advice to what would work and what might not. Her designs are creative and unique, truly unlike any other I’ve seen out there while I was in the process of choosing a website designer. I am so happy with this experience that I am already in the process of hiring her for another job! I highly recommend her to anyone out there looking for a talented graphic design artist!

Vanessa is a nutrition consultant based in UK. I designed her logo and website recently and I am pleased to write about the project here. When I think of good nutrition I imagine apples and carrots. Cakes are somewhere in the list of forbidden food. This is why Cake Nutrition is such a curious name for a nutrition consultancy business.
Vanessa was certain that she does not want a logo with carrots and apples. She likes turquoise, light blue, white, red and pink colors. She prefers retro style to modern. Also she is a perfectionist, something I discovered in the process of work. I understood that her brand is about good, delicious food and about information presented in a fun creative way, not about the dry facts. With this in mind we worked together through several concepts till we found the right design for her. I became again convinced that generally clients knows best what design will work for them. We designers should not push our ideas at all cost but should truly listen to what the client is saying.

I stumbled across Sabina whilst researching potential designers for my branding and website design, and I’m so glad I did. With her patience and creative flair, I think that she’s produced some brilliant work. I think that the final design is just perfect and so many people have complimented me on it. I’m hoping to work with Sabina again on future projects and would have no hesitation in recommending her services!

There is something wonderful about completing a website project. It is an enormous amount of work, hundreds of emails exchanged with the client, brainstorming, liters of coffee, disturbed night dreams and so on. And at the end the result of our effort is online and we are proud.
Betina is a jewellery artisan based in France. She is natively from Brazil which one can feel by looking at how interesting her jewelry is. With pictures of colorful precious stones set in gold or silver, pearls and diamonds, there was really no need for me to decorate much her website. We chose clean design with artistic pencil lines. I added some accents of watercolor flowers that resemble jewels for her Etsy banner. Also I painted some clouds on the slideshow pictures as the light reflections of the stones reminded me of sun rays.
I also designed the Bellallure Facebook page. Check it out for some interesting jots about jewelry and modern women. Betina is really worth following!

Sabina designed my brand package and website. I can’t say enough about the fabulous work she has done. She listened to my thoughts and surpassed my expectations with her wonderful ideas. Her attention to detail and design initiative are remarkable. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her. She is friendly, patient and talented. When you combine these highly valued elements with Sabina’s irreproachable expertise and creativity, you get an admirable result.

Here is what I have been up to in the last weeks.
1. A snapshot of a new website project. I will post more about it soon.
2. Logo design for a cupcake business in The Netherlands. The tree with cupcakes is hand drawn and it was much fun to work on it.
3. Logo for Butterfly from Ashes. Again the butterfly is hand drawn and I just love the color scheme of blue, black and red-pink. The whole Etsy branding set turned out beautiful.
4. Logo design for lil & pippi. The client makes awesome fabric cloud mobiles. This was also part of a branding set.
5. A banner design for UK customer Kari Bellamy. I like how we mixed urban with romantic elements.
