award-winning logos

These are a few of my favourite logos that were declared winners at the recent Worldwide Logo Design Annual. I love the simplicity - I'm not a huge fan of 1980's style logos with gradients and shadows and I can see that the judges agree!

From the top:
1. Flow - Designed by Danny Goldberg Design (Israel)
2. Toko - Designed by Teja Kleč, Darko Miladinović (Armada, Slovenia)
3. Be - Designed by Rob Gonzalez, Jonathan Quainton (Sawdust, United Kingdom)
4. SoulStice - Designed by Bronwen Rautenbach, Kyle Wilhelm (The Brand Union, Johannesburg, South Africa)

platypus cards

We really like green here at inBloom Studio, and that definitely includes green companies that are doing great things for the environment. I would like to introduce Platypus - a new not-for-profit company that sells cute animated e-cards and greetings, and donates the money toward carbon offsetting.


I collaborated on the Platypus logo design a few months ago, and I also helped design the look of their new website which just launched this week! The Platypus 'people', Brenda Morrow and Murray Foster {who plays bass for Canadian band Great Big Sea}, are extremely down-to-earth and have a genuine concern for the environment, hence the launch of their new venture. Please check out their website and their cute e-card animations and don't hesitate to make a donation to a great cause.
