Having visited several caves in Missouri and Oklahoma last Spring, this poster caught my attention. The monochromatic blue color scheme conveys the cool, dark and damp feeling of a living cave system. The large, lighter colored stalagmite against the smaller, darker colored silhouettes in the foreground and the less defined, darker stalactites in the background create a wonderful sense of space. The small figures at the base of the stalagmite gives one the sense of scale, bringing home the immensity and majesty one might encounter while visiting various cave systems.

FYI, if you're traveling through Missouri, check out the Meremec and the Onondaga Caverns. You will definitely experience what this poster is about!

Green Thumb

The designer of this logo is Von Glitschka of Glitschka Studios.
The Green Thumb was created to show structure, and recognition towards the environment. The designer used a great source of green colors to symbolize the leafs blooming from the thumb, overall it works really well.

Osaka Sushi Fish

The designer of this logo is Dan McElhattan of M3 Advertising Design. I like this design because he used a Japanese type writing style in the tail, which also gives the fish movement and a fresh look making you think of only the freshest sushi in town. I would eat at this place just because of the logo.

Wicked Combo



This design was created by Luke Baker. The logo's main designer is Luke Baker and it was created for Papa Murphy’s: Fishers, Indiana. It get’s to the point of being slightly evil but the food is sinfully good like a Yin-Yang.

SUNDOG

This design was created by Jamie Karlin, for the client Sundog. I chose this design because I thought it was a good choice of a design and it clearly show what the client wanted, and it is simple and to the point. I also like the relationship between the dog collar and the sun a very good way to combined the two.

This logo was designed by Alexander Lanevski for Ufa City Hooka e-shop. (Indstry- Hooka Entertainment Market). I think this logo is effective because not only does it incorporate the image of a hooka, it also includes the first letter of the company without actually using a letter. I also think it's clever how they put sunglasses on the hooka and turned it into a smiley face. (:
