I was recently asked for help in designing a website and logo, and the client had a very definite style and look he wanted. Like most anything else, I began brainstorming for the website using small thumbnails. These are for layout purposes only, and they’re not meant to convey exact details or content. I thought perhaps you might find the process of brainstorming through thumbnails interesting.
Below is how the final homepage turned out. The client really wanted an art deco feel and asked me to emulate the style of Robert Hoppe, an artist that was popular in the late 80’s.
And below is the logo image I completed which will accompany company ephemera, as well as set the style for the completed website.
