Hopie Spitshard - Website Redesign

By Klucid on Tue, 11/01/2011 - 10:02

Way back in 2008, Klucid designed and developed Hopie Spitshard's original website (built on Drupal 5). Three albums and nearly four years later, Hopie has grown immensely as an artist, thus requiring a website overhaul. Not only are we redesigning the front end to match her new image and musical style, we are also upgrading her Drupal installation so that it is up to par for the new year.

Check out the initial concept for the new design above. Stay tuned as we share the design process with our readers and publish each step of designing a website from scratch - no templates! Follow along as we interpret comments and suggestions from Hopie into the new design.

Here's a concept for the new Go Bigg Music Group website. The company requested a grunge-slash-urban look and feel. Actually, one member of the team asked about an exact clone of the 6Fingers site, which I designed earlier this year. Read more »

Logo Concept - Tiny Shu Box

By Klucid on Mon, 01/18/2010 - 12:12

Here is a rejected concept design for a shoe brand called Tiny Shu Box. While the brand was originally to be inspired by the Tokidoki movement, the client has decided to go in different direction for the brand.

The concept started out as a pair of shoes (flats) emerging from a "tiny shoe box" and forming a heart.

Daily365 - Day Four

By Klucid on Mon, 01/04/2010 - 12:58

For this entry, I decided to resurrect an old sketch from 1998. I guess when I was in high school, I felt that Mario needed a handgun.

I started to trace it in Adobe Illustrator, but I don't have time to finish today. Maybe someday...

Andrew's Field Brochure Design - Inner Layout

By Klucid on Mon, 11/23/2009 - 11:39

Here is an almost finalized layout for the interior of the brochure design.

I've carried over the grass background to the interior after the client asked for more "color". The original concept that I sent to him had a splash of solid colors, but I figured he wanted texture and depth rather than color. It turns out I was right... He loved it. Final stage includes more photos and some updated verbiage.

The exterior layout should be completed early this week, then it's onto the website design (andrewsfield.org).

DeAlba Reporting Service is a court reporting firm. Per the initial meeting with Judy of DeAlba Reporting Service, I was to incorporate some form of legal icon (e.g., the scales of justice, pillars, the capitol dome). Read more »

Integrated Health Chiropractors - Logo Design Sketching Process

By Klucid on Wed, 01/14/2009 - 11:25

The Integrated Health Chiropractors logo was requested to be designed as clean, simple, and straight to the point. While doing a bit of research on other chiropractic logos, I noticed a strange similarity amongst the google image search results. Which led me to believe that most chiropractors have opted to design their own logos using clip art. Read more »
