Dropped this today…

Digging through my archive and found this logo I designed a while back for a shipment company What do you think about the mark?

@honour_can_code Love that 😎… my DMs are always open chief

@makeitdre yes i love the minimalism it speaks to my soul😅 i’ll follow up, lets talk ser

Almost a year ago… I had this idea for a lifestyle payment brand The goal was simple: freedom. Then nostalgia kicked in - paper planes I owned it by slipping a “z” into the tail. Not my strongest mark, but I leaned into it and built the visual world around it. Did I cook?

@honour_can_code No, not an actual brand - just a concept I came up with. Do you want any of the assets?

@makeitdre hey man, was the zend an actual brand….is the design free?

@iamdavidhill @isaaczara_

@Jastudiong @EphraimAkanmu We go dey alright my bro

@makeitdre @EphraimAkanmu this was me through at this week that i fell into depression

If you think Brand Design is about Logo and nice designs or colors. I pity you. 😂 remain small… I almost lose my mind today. 🥲🥲😭😶‍🌫️

@djklint11 @Midatlblog Na for single people 😂

@Midatlblog Were my babe go come sleep

Check out this “studio” apartment available for rent at ₦3 million per annum.🤣 📍Yaba, Lagos 🇳🇬

@chusmargallo Appreciate it, mate. Got me some good numbers on Behance too 😅

@makeitdre Pretty decent in my opinion

My first branding project ever… The brief: “my guy, I need a logo for my exchange brand, Balex.” Me: bring it on… (I had just finished watching some YouTube tutorials 😅) No strategy, no system. Just iterations and small copy-paste until it felt right. Somehow… it worked.

@kingsdesignsHQ Brand designer

I'm about to do something different today, I know getting gigs can be very hard nowadays. If you're a creative in need of design gigs no matter your niche drop your work under this post, you might be lucky.

@PaulJun_ Interesting piece, Paul. Boxed into a marketing team that sees design as aesthetics not strategy, pulled in every direction outside of brand work, & evaluated on whether things look "catchy" enough. This is the in-house reality for a lot of brand designers, myself inclusive 😮‍💨

I'm on the lookout for a builder, a T-shaped person who has deep mastery in brand design, building things (web and products), who has a learner's mindset and feels like their career is just beginning. Someone who is tired of the traditional brand design role in tech, who wants to work closely with various teams driving business outcomes, who wants to live on the frontier of AI. My team is working on things like the future of internal tooling, brand identity and systems, brand experiences (you get to work with my best bud @ItsJonHowell). We've already built multiple internal tools that can automate whitepapers, decks, and other assets. We're building things that don't exist yet. No official job description yet. Just looking to have conversations with people who wants to work with a team that's redefining the DNA and metabolism of a typical brand design team. Here's how I think how brand design is evolving: pauljun.substack.com/p/how-brand-de… Why I believe a point of view is more interesting than people who yap about taste: open.substack.com/pub/pauljun/p/… Why the future is about builders, small teams, that can own product develop, brand design, and the launch end to end: open.substack.com/pub/pauljun/p/…

One of my favorite logos from last year, created for an AI academic audio layer that makes research listenable - Kindle Brief Case study coming soon 🚧

@markoilico I’d love to have it

If you're now designing or redesigning a website, this will help you a lot. I recently curated the best hero sections, footers, social proof and other website parts because I got tired of having 15+ tabs open (even with Mobbin). Giving it away 100% free. Comment on this post, and I'll send a Figma link to your inbox!
