Uni Work: Logo design
20th of April, 2012 ∞ Art & Design
I think this one was probably the most annoying out of all my projects. In terms of work and research this one is on of the smaller projects but it still drove me nuts. Doing a logo for yourself is a nightmare! You’re always trying to add in a more “deep” meaning and “show who…
