This design is going to print on our bottle labels (formal bottle packaging design to come later). The whiskey is called \"Proud Cock\". We want the design to be detailed of the rooster and with ornate lettering. The label itself will be an off white, so the logo should be darker.
We want a bold, cool, and detailed design that's fun, but not cartoon-y.")

A delicate ode to fleeting friendships and feminine grace.
Drawn in a minimalist line-art style, this illustration captures the timeless elegance of a woman whose presence lingers like perfume in the air. Her beret, her scarf, and her softly closed eyes evoke the spirit of Parisian beauty — unspoken stories, untold thoughts, and the kind of poise that needs no explanation.
The handwritten script beneath reads:
“Les amis que nous avons rencontrés en route”
(The friends we met along the way) —
a gentle reflection on the chance encounters that shape our journeys more than the destinations themselves.
Subtle yet intentional, the only touch of color — red lips — becomes the heartbeat of the piece.
It’s not just an illustration.
It’s a moment. A memory. A memento.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/157/157479/attachment_157479194 "This logo redesign was created for the Deutsche Gesellschaft für HNO-Heilkunde, Kopf- und Hals-Chirurgie e.V., a leading German medical society in the field of otolaryngology and head & neck surgery.
The project involved modernizing the society’s historic seal, originally inspired by Michelangelo’s David. The classical figure was re-illustrated in a clean, high-contrast engraving style, optimized for both print and digital reproduction. Special attention was given to the line quality — bold contouring paired with subtle broken hatching in highlight areas — to retain the depth of a traditional engraving while ensuring vector clarity.
Two versions were developed:
• A refined green-toned version for modern use in digital and branding contexts
• A monochrome seal version for academic or official stamp applications
The result is a timeless visual identity that respects the society’s heritage while bringing it into a clean, functional, and contemporary context.")

Inspired by the phrase “dead on” a nod to perfect measurement and precision the mark blends craftsmanship, creativity, and Halloween spirit into a single emblem. The monochrome design ensures clarity at any scale, while the organic linework gives the brand a bold and authentic visual identity.")

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/157/157027/attachment_157027293 "A coastal emblem rooted in tradition and elegance.
This logo was created for a heritage inn by the sea — a place where ocean breeze meets timeless hospitality. The detailed engraving-style illustration of the lobster pays homage to Maine’s maritime heritage, a nod to the region’s iconic coastal cuisine and seafaring past.
The lobster is more than just a visual centerpiece — it represents local pride, craftsmanship, and a connection to the water that defines Newagen. Rendered in refined linework and a deep nautical blue, the identity carries the elegance of old-world seaside resorts, while remaining clean and contemporary for modern use.
Whether engraved on fine stationery, embroidered on linens, or painted on a weathered wooden sign, this logo brings to life the essence of quiet luxury by the shore.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/96/96353/attachment_96353922 "Where rustic charm meets high-intensity grit.
Designed in a frenzied rush — 10 minutes before the competition deadline — this logo became my first competition win and proof that creative instinct can work wonders when met with the right brief.
The concept blends farm aesthetics with functional fitness by transforming a stylized barn door into a barbell to convey both place and power. The clean, minimalist forms provide versatility for T-shirts, fitness bottles and digital media, while the structure hints at a forward-looking brand system that can translate to day camps, weekend intensives and full-on retreat experiences.
The brief was clear: “Strong but warm, feminine but not girly, rustic but high-class.”
I just listened… and drew")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/157/157406/attachment_157406349 "This logo captures the rugged spirit and handcrafted soul of Hill Country Hot Peppers. Inspired by the raw beauty of the Texas Hill Country, the design blends a longhorn skull—a nod to regional heritage and strength—with chili pepper horns, symbolizing the bold, fiery flavor at the heart of the brand.
The pepper stems and leaves at the horn base reflect the farm’s commitment to organic, sustainable practices—where everything starts in the soil. The engraved, vintage-style linework evokes craftsmanship, tradition, and the care that goes into every pepper, sauce, and jar.
This isn’t just a logo—it’s a story of land, legacy, and flavor. It visually distills the brand’s mission: to grow bold flavor from the ground up and deliver an authentic, handcrafted Texan experience in every bite.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/157/157151/attachment_157151342 "This logo was designed for Grand National Resort & Spa, a luxury retreat in Opelika, Alabama. The identity centers around a detailed hand-drawn illustration of the resort building, surrounded by native pines — evoking a sense of grandeur, tranquility, and Southern charm.
Inspired by traditional engraving techniques, the illustration style communicates elegance, heritage, and meticulous craftsmanship. Every architectural line and tree was rendered to celebrate the resort’s timeless architecture and natural setting.
The typography reinforces the premium tone while maintaining readability across various brand applications. The final mark is both stately and approachable — perfect for a destination that blends nature, relaxation, and refined hospitality.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/157/157408/attachment_157408732 "The Stillfire Provisions logo captures the bold, playful spirit of the Texas Hill Country. A cowboy riding a chili pepper like a rodeo bronc symbolizes the brand’s passion for big, handcrafted flavor rooted in tradition.
Rendered in a vintage engraving style, the logo reflects small-batch care and rugged authenticity. The dynamic pose and fiery pepper tell a story of heritage, heat, and a wild love for real food and flavor.
Born from Hill Country Hot Peppers, Stillfire Provisions builds on that legacy with an extra spark—celebrating bold, handcrafted heat that’s proudly Texan.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/157/157204/attachment_157204061 "This logo was created for Billowing Fur Farms, a micro-hydro powered homestead located in the lush landscapes of Pennsylvania. The brand is rooted in sustainability, strength, and tradition — with its most iconic feature being the two beloved Great Pyrenees guardian dogs: Bigbee and Pearl.
Designed in a hand-engraved vintage style, the illustration captures the quiet loyalty and protective grace of the farm’s true keepers. The typography was custom-tailored to reflect a classic and masculine tone, with a bold stance and soft curvature — echoing both the ruggedness of the land and the warmth of companionship.
Though this design was not ultimately selected, it stands as a showcase of thoughtful storytelling through illustration and the kind of branding that leaves a lasting imprint.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/112/112600/attachment_112600928 "A minimal brand identity for a modern charm.
“Canette” — French for little duck — is a name that floats as effortlessly as the logo itself.
This branding system was designed with a focus on delicacy, simplicity, and flexibility, creating a mark that feels both playful and refined.
The duck icon is rendered in smooth, uninterrupted strokes — a continuous line that mirrors the fluidity of water and the natural elegance of its subject. It’s soft, quiet, and instantly recognizable.
Paired with a clean geometric typeface, the logo feels modern yet gentle — perfect for packaging, embroidery, signage, or print. The extended identity includes circular submarks, ensuring strong versatility across platforms.
Whether on boutique products, labels, or digital platforms, Canette speaks with a voice that is calm, confident, and distinctly graceful.")
