a series of logos i made for a company in turkey. they were a clothes company and they needed a new marketing identity. i did approximately 16 logos before they decided which they liked the most. my personal favourites are the ones i listed here.

those there beautiful times in turkey. some of my greek brothers will shrug but, when the people you have around you mean well and make you feel nice, then the location is of inferior importance. yeah, turkey was not all that clean and yeah at some points you get the feeling you’re being scanned by someone for valuables; however, honestly now, is there any way these aren’t both true in any major city of the world? Okay, perhaps i would have liked it more if the streets were cleaner but on the other hand, it’s a poor country.

back to our subject, all of the above were created with the free version of painshop pro (shareware) in 2005. the only thing that took long to figure out was the dropping of the vowels. as soon as i dropped the vowels i created more than half of the logos i finally turned in. however, the full reddish baltona logo above is still a personal favourite.

this was one of the very few happy periods of my life. going to turkey was not easy, being greek and all, but in the end, i wouldnt change a moment of it. this is the view of the room i stayed in, for one night, before going back to the city and then back to athens, greece.

2005. just after i finished my military service.
