When HDS North America hired us to create a new retail concept for the chain of ‘Explorus’ stores we were asked to create an identity that would include a visual system of graphics to showcase product categories and make it easier for customers to navigate the space.‘Logo Design Made Easy‘ designed a system of iconographic symbols that convey the store’s identity as a destination for exploration and discovery. Given Explorus’ projected multicultural customer base, visual content was to be neither linked nor limited to any one specific culture. Critical to our mandate was the development of a simple graphic vocabulary, which would be universally accessible regardless of education or background.
A number of icons symbolizing exploration and discovery including magnifying glass, compass, globe and solar eclipse were considered as potential elements for Explorus logo.
Five different logo concepts were presented and the solar eclipse was selected as a favourite concept. By replacing the letter “O” with an image of a solar eclipse we created a word-mark that symbolizes the character of the store, centered around themes of discovery and exploration.
After adjusting colours, the tagline “There’s a whole world out there, in here” was added. It neatly summarizes both the breadth and uniqueness of products that can be found in the store and works well in every application, from storefront signage to shopping bags.
Note: Explorus logo was selected and featured in the world’s most prestigeus logo design source, Graphis Press Corp. Zürich (Switzerland) in the ‘2002 Graphis Logos’ edition.
Visual identifyiers of store departments

Evergreen Financial Management Inc is a Management Consulting firm providing services in the area of business growth & development to the corporate & entrepreneurial sectors in Canada as well as in the areas of corporate finance, taxation, and management consultancy.
After finishing our research we went through a quick brainstorming session and started the sketching process.
Our client favoured the option in which the two slanted letters ‘E’ form an evergreen tree. A number of colours was explored before the design was finalized.
In order to emphasise the word ‘Green’ it was decided to split the logo into two primary colours, back and green.
Since 2005, Mediterranean Garden has been developing foods that are superior in quality, taste and nutrition. The company’s aim is to enrich people’s lives with great-tasting, convenient, and healthy foods every day. The philosophy is simple. Mediterranean Garden uses only natural ingredients and most flavorful recipes to satisfy a variety of tastes, appetites and eating occasions.
Our initial focus was centered around a logo-mark based on the letters MG.
As we were working on the typography without much success, we decided to shift our attention into a completely different direction.
We decided to start from scratch; sort of in the same way our client’s products are developed. We created a handful of custom illustrated ingredients used in our client’s pasta sauce.
All ingredients were combined into a ‘still-life’ like arrangement offering a perfect building block and a focal point of the future logo.
We provided three different variations of the logo to our client.
Below is the finalized logo that was later used on a variety of products.
Casa Dei Bambini is a Montessori school in the Toronto area for children between 18 months – 9 years old. The school’s objective is to offer an education that promotes wellness, embraces nature and recognizes the child’s natural desire to reach their immeasurable potential. All school programs are designed to inspire child’s curiosity, creativity and imagination in an environment that fosters independence, self confidence, respect and a life-long love for learning.
When ‘Logo Design Made Easy’ was approached to create an identity for ‘Casa Dei Bambini’s‘ first location, we decided to develop an identity that would visually address our client’s objectives to promote the child’s natural desire for knowledge.
1. An opened book graphic, symbolising an anccient source of knowledge was the starting point for our design. It offered a perfect basis for building the logo.
2. In our next step we removed the straight horizontal line (the cover of the book) and further refined the curved lines so when they later separated and moved away from each other, they would be visually able to transform into bird’s wings.
3. In doing so, a new layer of meaning was added. The visual mataphor for – ‘Sky is the limit’ – in the child’s natural desire to reach its potential was achieved.
4. A rising sun was the final touch in the design process of the icon. It symbolizes the beginning of the child’s education and it personifies its bright future.
5. After adding the full company’s name the logo was delivered to a client’s full satisfaction.
Once the logo design has been approved we explored and tested numerous colour options.
The identity was a great success and shortly after it was applied to all marketing materials including a stationery, kit folder, brochre, sales sheets and a website.
Engage is an advertising and marketing company. Their corporate goal is to be identified by three parameters:
1. Ability to build rellationships between their client‘s and their client‘s prospects through strategic advertising .
2. Ability to create interest and demand for client’s products and services
3. Ability to engage viewer‘s senses through creative and strategic practices
We decided to focus our attention entirely on those three objectives and deliver a logo that would immediately evoke desired associations. We chose to focus strictly on typography as a visual triger and provide ‘Engage’ with a convincing wordmark.
Through the process of design simplification we created a wordmark that addresses all three objectives. The attached ‘G’ letters illustrate ‘Engage’s’ sensitivity to typography and design. At the same time the connection of the two letters illustrates strong and lasting relationships and emphasises the meaning of the word ‘Engage’.
Morover, the logo is eye-catching, simple to reproduce in one or multiple colours and easy to apply in various sizes without loosing its clarity. The logo is immune to changing trends as it doesn’t follow any of them.

Since our company offers a full-featured corporate identity service that includes letterhead, business card and envelope, as well as website, brochures and other print materials, we provided Engage with a stationery design and a fully integrated website.

Greg Petkovich, the president of Atticus Interim Management was clear about how he wanted to communicate his new corporate image. ‘Our logo should look like a signature under a business contract. It should evoke a feeling of trust and be associated with successful cooperation’.
Having a very well defined set of instrucions we focused our sketching process on developing a signature-like logo through simplification of the three letters – AIM.
Fairly soon we discovered that one single stroke with two dots can look like a signature and the letters AIM at the same time.
Once the logo design has been approved we explored and tested numerous colour options. Below is the selected colour combination that works on both, white and black background.
