  • Hong Kong Design Institute – Logo competition

    The Hong Kong Design Institute held an international competition to design their new logo. Every individual could enter up to 3 different proposals that reflected the values and interests the Design institute seeks to promote.
    The following are the 3 proposals that I submitted to the competition.

    HDKI - Logo 1

    This logo is both an abstraction of the letters H and K and of a human figure that symbolizes how the people are central to the design practice in general and how the students are the institute’s biggest asset. (more…)

    I designed this logo as an upgrade on  TweenSense’s previous logo (an orange cube), by giving it a sketchy look that can be associated to hand made sketches of 3D solids which is typical in the architectural design world. It is combined with a font used typically in basic print material such as blueprints. (more…)
