Truck Lettering

A good client of mine, asked me some time ago to design the lettering of a new truck they ordered. It was kind of strange to do such a design because it's not what I do on a daily basis, but I took the challenge and did some research before I started my design for them. This week I took some pictures of the end result: the final the lettering on the new truck.

Today, I got a big package from the postman with a HongKong Post label. Some time ago, Vivian Lei - Art Director for Art power - approached me with the question to contribute to a book of business cards they were about to publish.

Making a style guide

The previous months and weeks, I've been busy with some projects for both web and print. The print projects have my full attention at the moment and so I wanted to share some of the things I'm making for a client. Because I cannot share the name of the client, i have replaced the logo with my own, hope you don't mind. I'm going to show how I did the style guide for this project. A style guide can be a really helpful guide. For me, it is an anchor point to refer to when I'm busy designing for the same client. It helps me focus on the colors, the style, the elements that are important when building an identity for print and web. I designed this style guide with Adobe InDesign.

A webdesign brief document for every website

It's no luxury to make a document for every website that you design. A document with a design description. Before starting a webdesign project, a webdesigner collects lots of information. You get a lot of information in your mailbox (clients tend to send you everything by e-mail), you receive a logo, a brochure and text for the webdesign, that's about it. Over the years, I collected everything nicely in a folder with the name of the client. I still work this way but I add a design brief to every project now. The client receives also a copy of this document. It's important information, my clients use this document for marketing material that they afterwards (after the launch of their website) need to order.
