It’s been a failry busy season of life. We’ve got our first child on the way (due in February) and things have been going pretty good. Work wise, I’ve been working with Storyline Films on The Grey Generation’s opening credits, which I’m excited about. I will post some work as soon as it’s available! Take Care. – Dax

Sorry it’s been such a long time since I’ve updated. It’s been one of those busy and exciting seasons of life, but you should be seeing much more coming work in the next coming months. Meanwhile, I’ve uploaded the latest wallpaper. A quote from Jim Jarmusch (quoted by Tom Waits) and a quote you can live by.

Enjoy.

I love this guy.

Graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister takes the audience on a whimsical journey through moments of his life that made him happy — and notes how many of these moments have to do with good design.

Renowned for the album covers he created for the likes of Lou Reed, Talking Heads and the Rolling Stones, Austrian-born, New York City-dwelling designer Stefan Sagmeister invariably has a slightly different way of looking at things.

Enjoy.

Five Clothing Company Logo/Branding Image 01

Client: Five Clothing Company, Salt Lake City, UT

Description: Logo design #01 for Five Clothing. Local business specializing in repurposing and reclaiming clothing for men and women.

Statement: Five Clothing Company is a local company working in reclaimed, recycled, ready-made (whatever you want to call it) men’s and women’s clothing. We love them. Anyhow, this logo is a concept (my favorite so far) implementing simple, clean type with the V as a roman numeral (number 5, get it?).

Here are some other logo ideas, some executed a little more than others and my idea sketches.

Currently listening to the Chris Bathgate Station on last.fm – beautiful folk music.

Dollie likes to party, it’s too bad the day after she’s wrecked. This was about 2PM the day after Lauren’s graduation party.

I just finished launching and working out bugs for (my beautiful, talented wife) Lauren Hansen’s Photography site. Go check it out at laurenhansenphotography.com. Let me know if anything looks wacky and I will get it fixed. Also, pass her name along to anyone you know who could use a great photographer for their next wedding or event where you want memories captured by a brilliant up-and-coming artist. There will be much more in the next coming weeks.
