It’s a very clean, simple, modern banner graphic. There’s a beautiful shop in Gastown using this in their logo. (Old Faithful Shop)

My latest is the classic metal styled graphic design group called RASTERIZER (spoken in growling voice). Since metal logos are by far the coolest ones going these days, I spent 15 minutes to see how a logo might look. I think I’ll refine it over the next couple of weeks and maybe ad some more harsh lines, maybe some grungy chrome looking fills or those scratchy root looking things that seem to look awesome and of course some 3d with shadow style effects. I think this one might be worthy of getting  few people together and recording a few songs. RASTERIZER!rasterizer_logo
