Dear Client
We need to talk — honestly, openly, and with respect.You’ve trusted us with your vision, and that means everything. But good design isn’t just about creating what’s asked — it’s about knowing when to pause, rethink, and realign. Sometimes that means saying no, stepping back, or choosing a different direction for the sake of something better.
We’ve learned that not every collaboration is meant to last forever — and that’s okay. Growth requires change. If our paths are shifting, it’s not out of neglect, but out of care for the integrity of the work we both believe in.
Please know: our respect for you doesn’t fade. The time, ideas, and energy we shared still matter deeply. You’ve helped shape how we create, how we listen, and how we design with purpose.
So this isn’t goodbye. It’s a quiet thank-you — and a promise to keep designing with the same honesty that built our work together in the first place.
With respect,

A logo is built to endure. It must move seamlessly across old media, new platforms, and whatever comes next. As simple as that.
Discipline vs. Talent in Design
Talent is a gift—we spend years trying to discover what we're naturally good at. And when we find it, it feels like magic. But talent has a flaw: it leans on motivation. And motivation is unreliable.
I take it personally
Sometimes I get involved in a branding project where I accidentally bump into people who think halfway there is a good start.
We always see ourselves a littl e better before we look in the mirror.
Fun fact that goes with singing in the shower and playing some air guitar. But lets transform that phrase into branding. When was the last time you looked with your brand in the mirror?
To all the misfits who jumped to freelancing
We’ve been broke. Burned out. Ghosted. Underpaid. But we still say no to shitty jobs. We’d rather spend endless hours on a good one — a real one — that actually means something to us. Even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard. Because we love this shit — and we’re damn good at it.
