Of Globes and Spiders

It has been a while since I have blogged. I have been very busy at work of which I am very thankful for during this time of economic challenge.

The first logo is an identity created for MissionKids, an initiative that helps parents teach their children about the vast social needs around the world. I love the energy in this identity. Especially the splat of the globe. It almost feels like it was flung against the wall and stuck. It reminds me of when my parents would cook pasta and throw the noodles against the refrigerator. If it stuck it meant it was done cooking.

The second, is a logo for PixelSilk, a new content management system that also incorporates search engine optimization. I think the spider’s legs are cool. They look like digital crawlers. Another option for the tagline I developed was “Bite Me”, but I decided “Feed Your SEO” was safer.
