Sep 08 / Logo Design For A Start-Up Medical Spa

by Aaron Weiche

Five was recently lucky enough to be chosen to design the very first logo for a new business in the skincare industry here in the Twin Cites.  S.K.i.N Medical Spa became a reality this summer and we played a big part by designing their logo and website (more on the website in a later post).

Below are the logo concepts we designed to start the process:

logo-design-skin-spa-ALL

With just a few minor tweaks to one of the logo concepts, we had ourselves a winner. Sometimes one of the concepts is just the right look, right off the bat.

Here is the final logo design  for S.K.i.N Medical Spa:

logo-design-MN-skin-final

A company’s logo is so incredibly important in it’s branding, personality, perception, pride and tone.  Both S.K.i.N and Five couldn’t be happier with the final logo result.

Sep 03 / Website Re-skin Project

by Aaron Weiche

The beauty of a well designed, CSS coded and simple layout is the ability to easily re-skin the web design if needed.  This was the case recently for the Buffalo Area Chamber of Commerce as they designed a new logo and needed to not only add the logo to the website, but update the color scheme.

New Web Design After the Re-skin

The Old Website & Color Scheme

The website re-skin with the new logo turned out great and it only took a couple of hours.  That’s the flexibility and efficiency you get when you design a website the right way.
