Posted by

Clever brand identity for personal trainer Roland Semprie. The t-shirt is designed with minute increments around the collar to indicate the amount of sweat that will be produced in that time from working out. Very client appropriate concept.

Flux Trends

Nicework is very proud to showcase recent work from our design dynamo Donovan Pugh.

The book brought together a number of influential and informed individuals to address issues and developments in the cultural milieu. The cover used Chang’s iconic profile and incorporated a number of graphic elements into it to encapsulate this forward looking trendspotter. Well done Don!
