Description: Turtletopia is a portal web site for finding information on the care, breeding, habitat, and feeding of turtles and tortoises. The web site also features book reviews and a discussion forum.

Website
Developing a website that was easy to maintain was the most important aspect of this project. With a templated system, I setup a solution based on Dreamweaver so the client would be able to easily update the site themselves.

Identity
Turtletopia also needed a logo. This attractive and colorful design was created to depict the coloring of turtles, which is largely green with a few accents here and there. A chunky, yet fun font was used in the name in order to convey the sporadic movements of the slow turtles and tortoises. The added touch of the turtle with the tongue hanging out gives it that spark of fun!

Advertising
The banners below were used to promote the website.

Description: Community Animal Rescue Effort (or C.A.R.E. for short) is a private nonprofit organization acting as a regional sanctuary for the needs of animals, pet owners, and their Community at large. C.A.R.E. needed a website to promote the shelter and help them place animals with good homes.

The solution was a website run off a custom animal adoption database that displayed available pets at the shelter. Administration pages were also created for the client so that they can handle all the postings and adoptions of the pets directly.

Description: SpeedJunkie.net was a portal for car enthusiasts. The goal of this logo was to emphasis race cars, so they type was given the “drive by” feel that you get when a car speeds by you. The “fireball” dot for the letter “i” adds to the speed theme by adding to the “drive by” imagery. (This site is no longer active.)

Description: Dwolf.net Hosting specializes in providing inexpensive hosting solutions. (They  provide the web space I used to use to test FrontPage web templates when I was a FrontPage designer.) The owner did not ask me to create a logo for them, but I decided that the company name was just ripe for a great design. The two you see above are my favorites of all the mocks I made.

If you’re interested in great customer service from your hosting company, you should definitely give them a try.

Work Completed: Logo Design

Description: Power Prayer on the Rock Church wanted a logo that would convey the reason for establishment of their church…prayer. They also believe that there is power in numbers when praying. I took those two beliefs and displayed them by depicting a group of people praying on what looks like a rock. The simple black and white of the charcoal logo brings your attention to the words and the message.

Description: Jubilee Creations is the parent company of the Jubilee Product family, a collection of Christian books and teaching materials targeted at African Americans. The product family includes 3 entities: The Jubilee Legacy, The Legacy of Virtues, and Jubilee Heroes & Heroines. The goal of the product family is to focus on spiritual growth and journey’s of faith, yet tie each to the umbrella entity: The Jubilee Legacy. Different images were chosen to depict the themes of “journey’s of faith” with the dove and “spiritual growth” with the strong, rooted tree and its extended branches. The rising sun was added to symbolize the hope for a new day that comes as a result of spiritual growth and journey’s of faith. All three logos are tied together by their rich and luxurious color scheme.

Work Completed: Logo and Stationary Design

Description: The Note Shop is a musical instruments store. This was “noted” (haha! get the pun?) by including a set of notes in the logo. The type is shifted to one side in order to project the look of a flute when held in someone’s hands. Overall, a really great logo that gets the message across!

Work Completed: Print Logo

Description: Abundant Provisions Family Life Center Church is a community organization which helps those in need. Their main focus is providing food to the community. The final logo below symbolizes an abundance of food.
