Logo Concept – SWID
The SWID logo is built around a bold and minimal letter "S", representing the brand's name while creating a strong and recognizable visual identity.
The defining feature of the mark is the lightning bolt formed through negative space in the center of the icon. This hidden element symbolizes speed, power, energy, and performance—the qualities that define modern footwear designed for people always on the move.
The sharp geometric cuts enhance the feeling of motion, while the clean curves maintain balance and simplicity. This combination gives the logo a dynamic appearance without sacrificing versatility.
The bold wordmark complements the icon with a confident, athletic personality, making the identity suitable for everything from shoe boxes and hang tags to footwear labels, shopping bags, and digital branding.
Design Symbolism
S Monogram: Represents the brand name, SWID.

Geometric Construction: Reflects precision, innovation, and modern craftsmanship.
Bold Typography: Communicates strength, confidence, and durability.
Orange & White Palette: Orange expresses energy, enthusiasm, and movement, while white represents simplicity, quality, and clarity.
The result is a memorable and scalable identity that captures the spirit of a contemporary footwear brand built for performance and everyday style.

Woww that's super unique! Absolutely love that concept 🔥
MADE OF is a luxury material-typography campaign exploring what shapes a brand: its materials, craftsmanship, ideas and defining qualities. Five original visual references move from separated natural elements into MADE OF, FASHION, MAKEUP and finally GOALS—constructed from AMBITION, WORK, CREATIVITY, PASSION and TIME. I designed the concept as a flexible storytelling template that could be adapted to different industries and generated it as one continuous 30-second film using Seedance 2.5 in CapCut Video Studio.
