Hello, I am Lauren Furman and I am a graphic designer. I specialize in
the service of branding; web design, and any of your other everyday
graphic design needs like brochures, poster, commercials, etc. I am
currently still in school but have done some work over the past 5
years and with this new identity I am creating I hope to get my face
out to the public and so people really know who I am and what I can
offer. I have many goals I want to accomplish just like anyone else, but
when I think long term I would love to be a senior designer at a design
firm or working on magazine layouts like Entertainment Weekly.
Some of the aspects I want to convey in my logo are a little but of my
personality as well as my work ethic, maybe something sleek and
simple to the point. I have not yet decided if I want a tagline or not.
If I do want a tagline I think it would be something pun-ny to show-
case my sense of humor. Overall I just want to showcase my abilities
and work ethics.
My existing audience would be fellow graphic designers as well as
perspective and past clients. I always love to showcase my work to
attract perspective clients. Word of mouth and social media mouth is
great too for broadening your audience.
My competitors are fellow designers. I honestly think
their logos are great and really describe the work they can
produce. To name a few competitors their is
David Airey- http://www.davidairey.co.uk
Brent Galloway- http://brentgalloway.me
Jessica Greenwalt- http://www.jgreenwalt.com
Rachel Kim- http://rachelkim.net
Irene Victoria- http://irenevictoria.com
The logo that I am envisioning for my brand and myself
would be something very simple in shape that stands the test
of time. Even though it might change over the years I want it
to still hold its ground on past projects. I also see the colors
changing to match the project I am working one. Just like
Entertainment Weekly, their logo changes with its color and
elements with every weeks cover. Right now I do not have
anything that must be in my logo, I just have to get a feel for
it.
My promise is to provide designs that were given time
attention and thought to every detail.
