Client: Dunkin’ Donuts
Design: Logo
Details: I was part of the design team that redesigned the Dunkin’ Donuts logo. The previous version (below) from 2002, featured the iconic pink and orange design with coffee cup. To modernize the design, my coworker illustrated a streamlined cup in coffee brown. The company felt like a floating cup wasn’t quite right, so my art director asked me to come up with another pass. To tie it together but still look recognizable, I featured the new illustration on a pink and orange background. The change was very subtle but balanced in dimensions and negative space. I also created the other versions of the logo, such as vertical and horizontal.

Details: For this campaign, the symphony wanted a modern look that was distanced from the previous season’s campaign on continuing tradition.
