Microsoft OEM Brand & Logo Design—It’s Great Working with our Redmond Neighbors

Microsoft OEM Logos

Wow, get this, after 28 various marks we then honed in on the final. From there we created 192 variations of the same logo. This, of course, included localization, 1 color and print/rgb versions. Once the logo was complete we had the pleasure of working on additional collateral which helped to define the look and feel of the new brand, namely the style guide, website mastheads, a power point template and business cards, to name a few.

 

Pixelube Logo Design Gets Published Again – Kudos!

Intoxica logoWe’ve just been informed that one of our latest logos (Intoxica) has been selected for LogoLounge’s, soon to be published book LogoLounge Volume 6.

Not to toot our horns but this years lot was made up of an incredibly competitive judging session with over 34,000 logos entered for consideration. We’ve also been informed that your our work has been chosen for inclusion in the new book by an international panel of judges. This year’s panel included, Bart Crosby of Crosby Associates, Hans Hulsbosch of Hulsbosch, Jeannie Servaas of Saffron Brand Consultants Inc., Jessica Hische of Jessica Hische, Marius Ursache of Grapefruit, Sherwin Schwartzrock of Schwartzrock Graphic Arts, Silvio Giorgi of Latinbrand, and Tessa Westermeyer of Landor.

We love to design logos!

iPad Application Design – Pixelube’s First!

BigOven iconA couple years ago we had the pleasure of meeting and working with the folks over at BigOven. We collaborated to create the new brand and web site for BigOven.com. Since then the site has grown by leaps and bounds. They’ve launched a variety of new features, released an iPhone app and over the weekend BigOven debuted its new iPad application.

I have yet to purchase an iPad but it has been a true pleasure to work on the UI design for BigOven’s application. Due to a dedicated team made up of a handful of super-smart folks, we were lucky enough to be one of the featured apps in the iPad store upon this weekend’s debut.

The BigOven iPad application has a variety of great features. The app taps into BigOven’s database of over 170,000 plus recipes contributed by a gamut of users ranging from the novice to the professional chef. Users are empowered to:

  • Look up any recipe or post your own, free, to BigOven.com
  • Create grocery lists from recipes
  • Sync grocery lists via the web, iPhone and or Android
  • Post and organize your own recipes via BigOven.com
  • Post and read user-generated recipe reviews
  • View and post photos and much more…

We try not to toot our horns much over here but felt compelled to quote our big BigOven client:

“Vince, I’m such a fan of the clean, crisp look you’ve created, from the logo itself to the colors, and the brand signature that you created just rules the roost. The graphic design of this app makes it really something special. ~Steve Murch”


You can take a quick peek of the application here.

All of the hype wrapped around the new iPad has been interesting, to say the least. Especially interesting are the variety of press and reviews wrapped around our application. They started to trickle in last Monday. If you’re interested, you can see a few of them here:

Social Media Web Site Design for Seattle Company, Spring Creek Group

springcreekgroup1Wow, I can’t believe how much social media (Twitter, Facebook, iLike, YouTube, Linked-in, Blogs, etc.) has become such an integral part of the main-stream web these days. That’s why we were thrilled when local, Seattle Company, Spring Creek Group, who specializes in marketing brands via social media on the web, commissioned Pixelube to re-design their site.

Being that their areas of expertise are grounded in social media, it was only natural that we integrate a variety of social media features into the site. Not only did we build the site on the WordPress platform, we integrated various aspects of Twitter, Facebook, Linked-in, iLike and Friend Feed. We launched the site in early March. Click here to take a look.

Web Site Design for Seattle Company BigOven.com

Are you a foodie? If so you should take a look and try out recently re-designed BigOven.com. Steve Murch, the owner and creator of BigOven.com contacted us late last year for the re-design as well as a new, shiny logo. We met with him and things just clicked. Yup we’re a bit behind on our posts but you should definitely take a visit and maybe even post a recipe or two.

Pixelube Launches Connected TV Lifestyle Films Site

In collaboration with Seattle companies Switch’d Development and the Spring Creek Group, we launched Connected TV Lifestyle Films site just a few days ago. The site works as a spring board to build a community wrapped around DIY films based on Microsoft Media Room.

This was and has been a great project. We hope to see it grow!
