Pedro Santos (Adhesive / Design Studio)

We loved the first article you gave us last year.
And as we told you before it was a hell of an article, and we mean every line of the statement. It’s the kind of article that really helps a rookie designer, particularly a freelancer, on finding some answers on how to deal with his own brand.
We went through all of that doubts too, so we’d like to thank also in the name of the fresh designers.

Thank you for the honor of being one of these brands.

Best regards David,
Pedro Santos

Rob Russo

Thanks for the nod—it’s an honor to be included here. My own identity is far from a favorite when compared to so many of these.

Tomato is great!

Able Parris

David,

Thanks for including me in this list. You’re right, it is quite difficult to design for yourself, and your point about balancing skills with “modesty and professionalism” is spot on.

I am constantly thinking about the presentation of my work online. It’s nowhere near what I would like it to be, but I’m glad to be working on other projects rather than tweaking my own brand.

Cheers!

Neil Martin

There’s some excellent logos in this second part of your 100 Brands of Interest. Of note are Bright as Black and David P Crawford. I think my favourite would have to be Logo Diver and Tomato.

Thank you for featuring my logo.

Bomba is almost an extension of the moving brands logo; its awfully similar. Im a fan of Andrew Kelsall’s.

Aleksander Lenart

Hello. Interesting to see other designers’ identities. Thanks.

Aleksander Lenart, on April 8th, 2009

Alex

Nice collection indeed.

Just noticed that Yellow Fish Design logo looks very much like the mark used by http://unialert.com. I guess it’s the issue with simple marks - more than one person can come up with the same design.

Alex, on April 8th, 2009

Paul Carbo

Wow.  Very surprising to see myself included in this kind of list.  I’m honored to be among some very amazing designers.  Thanks for taking the time to make this list.

Rogier

Great post. Such a great way of displaying logos; just b&w and lots of whitespace.

Not many suggestions yet for the next 100. How about: http://jasonsantamaria.com/

Oh, and you forgot the http:// in the OVO url.

The biggest challenge by far for any graphic designer/agency is to brand themselves. Mine took me years.

Good job!

Arron Lock

Hey, I had no idea my logo (Bright Black) on on here. Thanks for featuring it. I am truly honored to be listed amongst some really excellent logos.

I have to ask why you only use the icon portion of the logo instead of the whole thing. And not to be picky but the name of the company is Bright Black… the URL is brightasblack.com

Arron Lock, on May 8th, 2009

Paul Ducco

Great follow up dache!
