I’m currently working on a visual identity for a tattoo studio. I’ll show you a small part of this project.
It was important to convey femininity and character. The studio creates fine-line tattoos that look clean and reflect each client’s personal story. The mirror effect in the logo represents exactly this idea of reflecting stories through tattoos. The lines in the typography reference fine-line tattoo work, and their interconnection represents the close bond between the tattoo artist and the client. This reflects the core philosophy of the brand.
I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on the result. 😊
As a woman, I really appreciate how femininity is expressed here — not as decoration, but as character. Beautiful work.😍

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.
A New York-based founder of a large real estate consulting agency asked me to work on his rebrand.
He didn't want the look of a traditional agency. He wanted to convey the aesthetics and exclusivity of an ultra-luxury hotel.
His budget was $2,000 for "just a little logo touch-up".
But there is a misconception behind requests like this.
You don't get premium market positioning with just a simple logo tweak.
Visual authority is built on consistency.
If a brand looks "expensive" and reliable, it's because every single touchpoint, from the website to the business card, from the pitch deck to the agency's interior design, right down to the scent of the rooms, speaks the exact same language.
Taking an elegant logo and slapping it on an amateur website won't make you look like a luxury brand.
That’s why when I get these requests, I am brutally honest about the result they will get.
We can design a great logo, sure (and I love doing it). But an isolated logo will never justify the premium rates you ask of your clients.
To position yourself at the top, you need a complete and cohesive system.
