One of my favorite identity projects from last year.
Saylo is a messaging app concept designed around the idea of simple, meaningful communication. The logomark combines the letter S with a chat bubble and three message dots, creating a clean, memorable symbol that instantly connects with the brand's purpose.
The accompanying pattern extends the identity, adding a playful yet modern visual system that works across digital and brand applications.
Looking back, it's still one of those projects I'd happily build again.
What's the first thing you noticed in the mark: the "S" or the chat bubble? 💬
Saylo has a calm confidence to it, the kind of identity that trusts the product to carry the weight instead of shouting. The restraint reads as premium. Was the round wordmark a deliberate counter to how sharp most messaging-app logos try to look?

Option A — Full Logo vs. Option B — Compact Version
Two sides of the same brand. 🪙
I've been working on a concept brand identity for MeriTech, and here's a sneak peek at the logo system: the full version and the compact mark, side by side.
The full logo carries the complete brand presence, while the compact version is built to work in tighter spaces without losing the identity.
This is part of a bigger case study I'm putting together — covering the full brand direction, visual system, and the thinking behind every decision.
Stay tuned, the full project drops soon. 👀
