Logo Designs

Over the past few years I have had the privilege of designing logos for some wonderful clients. The diversity is pretty wide but when you know your client, you can accomplish the job. ENJOY

My dear friends Anthony and Brittany decided to tie the knot. They came to me to design a logo for their special day. Inspiration came from stained glass frames and a skeleton key while incorporating thier initials into the key head. The teeth were modeled after their soon to be shared last name…Neal.

Long time Project Management firm The TWG had come to me recently looking to rebrand their image to stand out amongst the Information Technology Industry. As fate would have it, while selecting a type face the negative space between the T and W created the profile of the companies founder. I love the designer eye.

A Los Angeles based alternative vehicle company, Lumin Motors, approached me to create an identity that would eventually be utilized on their vehicles. Since Lumin was inspired by the sun, the bold metallic rays bursting through a gleaming sun soaked day will shine some light on the auto industry with Lumin Motors newest vehicles.

San Francisco Make-Up Artist Christine Shayesteh is a repeat customer. Our first round was done two years ago, but in the world of fashion, trends come and go. She needed a new design to get the industry and her clients excited. I was inspired by Art Deco posters from the early 1900′s and just couldn’t think of anything as classy and timeless as a stick of red lipstick.

Logos displayed are sole property of each company. Ezekiel Designs has been given permission to display each logo.

Design Concept #1: Porsche Women’s Jacket

Developing concepts can be fun and challenging, but most of all fun. Being a huge fan of Porsche I had recognized a gap between the growing female owners and products offered through the Porsche Design catalog. Women who often buy a Porsche are fairly familiar with fashion trends and iconic brands so why not blend two of the biggest powerhouses in the world for a truly iconic clothing line designed for the female performance driver? Combining the fit and finish of Porsche with the lines of Chanel for the female figure, you simply can not go wrong. Here is that concept from sketch to final product. Enjoy and stay tuned for when and where you can purchase one of your very own. I am currently accepting offers for licensing the designs.

Fashion Sketches

While attending the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show I was inspired by the amazing concept cars to create some dynamic fashion garments. Here are number one and two in the series.

Pen Sketch #1

Through my years of design sketching and learning I have found that my media of choice is the all mighty ball point pen. I love the feel of scratching the surface of the paper for light construction lines and pressing deep into the paper for those bold line weights. Always a great feeling. ENJOY

Dynamic Sketch of the Week

When the day starts to slow down and I’m in need of creative stimulation I click my pen and pull out a piece of paper and explore dynamic movement of automobiles. Here is one of a 32 Ford Salt Lake Racer hauling ass on the open lake bed. Enjoy
