C2

The city of Torcy, France recently built a great complex dedicated to the promotion of Culture & Arts, highlighting local and national artists. I was contacted to work on its complete Brand Identity, including Naming, Logotype, visual identity, Print communication, exterior & interior signage, website design and clothing.

The main goal was to create a total new and innovative identity. Naming took a great part in that sense. I focused on trying to create a simple yet effective name for that building. C2 was chosen from a couple of hundred names for its international recognition, pronunciation and readibility. It stands simply for Cultural Center or the two initials 2xC -> C2.

As far as the logo is concerned, it followed in a logical way the naming process. A will to create a modern and contemporary logotype, yet efficient, minimal, powerful and durable. It was created so it could nicely fit and be readable at a great or tiny size on any document. The logotype guidelines show a slight dipping of the « C » and the « . » to create the optical illusion that all characters are aligned on the same baseline. Designer: Franck Juillot

Based in Denver, Colorado, Tenacious Landscaping is involved in projects ranging from town to country gardens, and uses both traditional and contemporary styles. Our design work for the Tenacious Landscaping brand coincided with a revised content and monetisation strategy. So we chose the wild beauty of the bighorn sheep, the State animal of Colorado for this vibrant company’s brand identity. Boasting horns that can weigh up to 14kg and an intrinsic part of Native American mythology, this animal captures the spirit of Colorado wildlife and reflects Tenacious Landscaping’s brand values of power and elegance.

Fictional logo for an Adidas-themed résumé. This is in no way affiliated with Adidas.

Earlier this year, Adidas Originals had an open Design Director position in their Portland HQ, and, being a lover of the brand, I decided to apply. To demonstrate not only my skills as a graphic designer, but also my knowledge and respect for the adidas brand and its legacy, I designed a self-promo booklet (a highly-conceptual adaptation of my current résumé) that is aesthetically inspired by adidas Originals marketing brochures. The booklet chronicles the accomplishments of a fictional alter-ego, Coach Ramirez — an adidas track suit wearing, afro'd, mustachioed designer — and is written as if he's actually the Design Director at adidas Originals. Sadly, I didn't get the job.
