Graphic Design is where all my visual skills in illustration, photography & hand-drawn typography often come together to create finished pieces of visual communication. This section also features the pure iconographic design skills of logo & identity design that I have done.
Client: Suman Sridhar Year: 2011 When singer Suman Sridhar found herself in Berlin needing a poster urgently, she put out a call on twitter which I answered. A few hours later, this emerged and the show, as the say, went on. Created in Inkscape. (Photograph by Tejal Shah)
Client: VLoveMovies.com (self) Year: 2011 A recurring feature on VLoveMovies.com where each Sunday a well-loved (or reviled) song from a movie is discussed. Below is a page featuring the workflow of how I arrived at the final logo, since I can do that for projects for myself.

A prominence was placed on movie stills, the […]
Client: Wanderlust Year: 2007 Brand visualisations for a lifestyle & travel site. The project itself didn’t work out, but I quite liked this phase of work I did for it. Created in inkscape.
