Logos for Friends and Family: AroundHI, Magic Music and Basic Fundas

Three separate logo jobs, three very different outcomes.

AroundHI was for a friend building a company; the logo is now live on their website.

Magic Music was for another friend, meant for their music instruments store, built around a script wordmark on a cyan block. That one never made it into use.

Basic Fundas was for my uncle, for a YouTube channel built around explaining topics in a simplified way. The mark itself is a brain with neurons orbiting it on an axis, like an atom diagram wrapped around a mind, with the name set underneath. Every element was built from scratch in Photoshop: the brain linework, the orbit rings and the type.

It’s since grown past the original channel. The YouTube channel still runs the explainer format, now largely cybersecurity-focused, and their website has turned into a full cybersecurity news site, with regional desks, threat intelligence and regulatory coverage running under the same logo I designed.
