I further holds a Diploma in Multimedia Design from Arena Multimedia College and able to efficiently work with various design softwares like illustrator, photoshop, indesign and coreldraw.

Places I have worked at: Here in are some of the designs and projects that I have worked on for previous clients and work places that include: Country Images Ltd, Goldlink Investments Ltd, Smart Concepts Ltd, Xpressive Design and Advertising Ltd and for Falcon Signs Ltd as the senior graphic designer.

“I’ve never had a problem with a dumb client. There is no such thing as a bad client.

Part of our job is to do good work and get the client to accept it.”

Come up with a creative logo for a new Indian restaurant. The indian elements and Indian flag colors makes the logo easy to associate with.

Logos

I have designed

Logo for a logistic company. The swatch makes a ‘q’ and also symbolises the speed, completeness and worldwide coverage of the company.

Vigna Goshti is Chinmaya Mission’s Science school. I used the chinmaya logo to create a microscope thus creating a unique and easily identifiable logo to the target audience.

Design a logo for a high end night club. The logo depicts style and class.

Other Logos “An image is not simply a trademark, a design, a slogan or an easily remembered picture. Itis a studiously craftedpersonality profile of an individual, institution,corporation, product or service.”
