LOGO / BRANDMARK
BUT WHAT DOES IT MEAN
A Brand’s Logo and Brandmark is it’s most important aspect, the visual identifier that the audience will always asociate when trying to remember the brand. The Hands brandmark is a visual interpretation of my surname, split into two parts. One hand represents “Spin”, while the other represents “Ola” a.k.a. "hello". Together they form a simple, flat vector mark designed to be clear, approachable, and easily recognisable across digital and print applications.

TYPOGRAPHY
BE A FONT WIZARD
I use two different font types Oswald, a beautiful bold typeface for headings and Neue Haas Unica W1G a font predecessor of the famous beautiful Helvetica font family. I used these two simply because of the balance they provide each other for a clean bold and proud look that they provide.
OSWALD IS THE FONT USED FOR HEADINGS, BIG AND SMALL
AaBbCcDd
Neue Haas Unica W1G is used for any and all paragraph text that I use with my brand, and should never be used for any headings, I mean just look how nicely it balances out the heavy-block like font above.
