I've been exploring two logo reveal directions for Maque & Associates, both built around the same identity and tagline:
🌑 Concept 01 (Dark Mode)
A cinematic, premium reveal on a dark backdrop with chrome-like 3D reflections on the mark. Feels high-end, authoritative, and emotionally grounded, like a firm that carries weight.
☀️ Concept 02 (Light Mode)
A clean, airy reveal on a light background with flat, modern form. Feels approachable, fresh, and professional, like a firm that opens doors.

SUrely going for the darker version, it came out really well 🔥 Great balance of creativity and execution. I’m usually into projects like this, so I had to take a closer look at what you’re building.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts 😊
trust & prestige first, then approachability really stuck out in concept 2 to me!
Will go for the Dark mode

A custom icon set for my website. I used my logo as the centerpiece to tie the whole system together 🧠
Amazing work
Should brands be beautiful, or impossible to ignore?
When I designed the identity for Sandwich, an advertising agency, I quickly realized that a polished, predictable brand would be the wrong answer.
Inspired by the tight structure of a sandwich, I knew the identity had to feel bold, loud, and unapologetic. The logo and overall identity needed to grab attention.
That is what I find interesting about Neo Brutalism. It strips away the filters and lets the message hit harder with high contrast type and bold colors.
As it's hard to replicate with AI, do you think Neo Brutalism is a lasting design direction?
Neat!
RFNE. | Branding & Packaging Design - Bento Summary
The visual system reflects RFNE’s commitment to clinical precision, system optimization, and efficacy over marketing. A restrained palette of matte black and warm grey, elevated by oxblood red accents, reinforces authority and depth. High-contrast, architectural imagery, generous white space, and grid-based layouts further establish a language that is minimal, forensic, and intentional. The result is a brand that feels authoritative yet contemplative, like a daily ritual grounded in science, designed to maximize human potential with quiet confidence.
