Logo Design
This collection showcases logos I’ve designed in collaboration with soccer and futsal teams, transforming their vision into a strong visual identity. Through a collaborative process with team leaders, I ensure each design authentically reflects their team's ethos, personality, and unique spirit. By blending creativity with strategic design, I craft logos that not only represent the teams but also foster a sense of unity and pride among players.
Blossom Cup
To mark the inaugural season of the Blossom Cup, Netrippers F.C. sought a logo that honored their original club emblem while embracing a modern aesthetic. Drawing inspiration from the geometric structure of blossoms, I crafted a design that highlights the flower as the central motif, incorporating buds to symbolize growth—both of the tournament and the community it fosters. The final logo is versatile, designed for use across social media, email marketing, and tournament merchandise distributed to registered athletes.
Mariposa F.C.
Mariposa F.C., a queer futsal team, approached me to create a logo that captured both the essence of their name—Mariposa (Butterfly)—and the team’s commitment to diversity and inclusivity. Through close collaboration with the team manager, I developed three distinct concepts that blended vibrant colors, modern design, and a unique visual identity. The final logo embodies the spirit of the team, celebrating both individuality and unity on and off the court.
Paloma FC x Palomar
Paloma FC emerged from the perfect blend of my love for futsal, the irresistible allure of Paloma cocktails, and the warm ambiance of one of Portland's cherished bars, Palomar. The idea came to life when Rose City Futsal announced an upcoming New Year's Eve tournament. With the intent of making this event unforgettable for myself and my teammates, I decided to reach out to Palomar's owner, proposing a sponsorship for our team jerseys.
The concept for our crest was rooted in the essence of the Paloma cocktail. What better way to pay homage than by incorporating this delectable beverage into our emblem? The radial gradient within the crest symbolizes the warmth one feels while savoring a sunset, whether in the company of family, friends, at the beach, or relishing a special moment with a cocktail in hand — specifically, a Paloma.
We won the entire tournament!
Calm SC
Hailing from Portland and established in 2022, Calm FC is more than just a futsal team; it's a celebration of the sport's passion, competitiveness, camaraderie, and a steadfast commitment to uplifting everyone in its orbit, be it teammates or opponents. The team organizer envisioned a logo that encapsulated all these values, and more, in a distinctive and playful manner.
I started on this creative journey armed with the organizer's vision, and the result was the presentation of five unique logo concepts that translated the brief into visuals. Amongst these concepts, the standout winner was the "thumbs up crest." It encapsulated the team's ethos perfectly, with the phrase "You're Doing Great" serving as a beacon of encouragement and positivity. The thumbs-up gesture solidified this message, creating a powerful visual representation of Calm FC's spirit.
