Z•A•MARTZ Logo 2006 to 2014

| I thought it would be interesting to see how my “branding” has evolved over the years. The gif is a little small but it’s a bit hard to track down files going that far back with the type of quality screens demand now-a-days.

Hope you enjoy this little evolution.

Z•A•MARTZ 2014 Logo

| Admittedly the last logo rendition I did for 2013 was a bit rushed. As a result It lacked structure and thought. Today I am launching a much stronger version that pay homage to my original mark attempts back in 2006 and the 2013 fractal styling I love today.

Z•A•Martz focuses on 3 core concepts :

Technical Structure, Design Esthetics, Business Objectives!

Each Portion of the the Z•A•Martz logo represents one of the three facets on my approach. The logo is composed of three colors plus white.

I went back to the downward pointing logo with the understanding in this digital age content is explored by going downward instead of side to side. Thus the logo directs you to the content.

The “Z•A•MARTZ” Text also directs attention down and the bottom point of the mark can fit into the valley of the “M” (also points downward).

The fractal pattern I created evokes the logo esthetic but allows for a very unique repeating pattern that forms irregular shapes between each a joining fractal square.

ZAMARTZ New Twitter Layout 2014

I’m not for nor against this… a bit lack luster to me – I still hate that everything is cropped into long-ish horizontal images.

Frederick Framed

Frederick Framed

| I bought this frame a while ago because it was gold and fit my bedrooms motif. I never had a reason to use the frame until Frederick gave me a Instagram printout of NYE 2013. The perfect fit!
