Company Overview

In 1999 Danavox became the fourth largest hearing device manufacturer in the world, and now it is widely recognized as the hearing industry’s technology leader.

Danavox offers a full range of hearing instruments including software-based digital instruments, digitally programmable and traditional products in all size and models and creates innovative solutions for all types of ear-related diagnostics. It is the largest global supplier of computerized audiology and hearing instrument fitting equipments.

Logo Design & Development

Danavox requested re-developing their older logo using similar type forms but making it feel moore modern, warmer and more consumer-centric.

The use of the 3 rings in the letter ‘O’ symbolizes Danavox’s 3 primary values – Reliability, Trust & Technology as well as conveying the idea of sound waves or ripples moving outwards.

Marketing & POS Material

Danavox required several new updated communication devices designed to include the new logo and colour themes and deliver their message clearly to a consumer focussed audience.

I created posters, pharmacy POS and labels for the interior, brochures & counter-stands which use the corporate theme cleanly to deliver Danavox’s message.

Product Packaging

New more modernized packaging for Danavox’s core ABC hearing aid product was needed to match their updated corporate theme.

Using the 3 rings from the logo to envelop the packaging in 3 dimensions was a nice touch to create some interest while still maintaining a clean and uncluttered look.

Video Animation

Danavox required a stand alone video user guide for their hearing testing stations based inside pharmacies across China.

A simple animation loops with the company logo and core message until touch activated by the user. User steps would then play guiding customers through the process easily and quickly.

Logo/Branding & Design Guide

For all of my clients I create a clear and easy to understand Design Guide outlining all of the logo, colours, fonts and additional designs.

This is always a good tool for referencing design material aswell as a vital document for keeping everything consistent when working with other designers, web professionals or creatives.

Logo Design & Development

I was approached to create a logo that had ties to the medical industry, that was clean and that was memorable and had some connotation with the company name.

The curved element cradles the company name from above and is intended to appear as if light was just coming over the horizon of the earth. A symbol of a new beginning (sunrise) and of consistent support and care.

Monkey Lounge Shanghai

Illustration & Decor Design

Company Overview

This is based on what seems to be the “new thing” in Shanghai a hidden location. The bar boasts almost no signage with only a small monkey on the door, which is very hard to see when walking down the dark alley way. When you find the monkey you will need to buzz to be let in. The decor is sublime, minimal and dimly lit and is filled with loads of textures and rich fabrics. It is a nice new place to hang out sipping expensive cocktails.

Photo Retouch and Illustration

The concept was to use images of monkeys and appropriate them into different periods of time using the artform of that time to convey this.

Aswell as the idea of secrecy and that some places can be hidden and special we also wanted to throw monkeys into this mix just because, well they’re just plain funny.

Monkeys were there too don’t you know

If you could imagine that evolution stopped at monkeys and didn’t go beyond this then you may be able to imagine in some way if monkeys went through the same periods of time we have. The renaissance, wars, politics and different cultures.

I tried to convey this through the use of famous paintings, art movements and art pieces which are well known. The spin is that monkeys replace humans in all of the portraits.

Their new format to offer coaching via videos on Vimeo and Youtube aswell as audio progams make them a great asset in further developing business staff here in China.

Logo Design & Development

Video Vocab required a new logo that would be a contemporary signifier for video and needed it to work as a small recognizable icon within iTunes and also in a wide format for their website.
