That APPEALING SMILE on her face…

She was Sonica… very pretty girl… hardworking and gud looking…

I saw her once she came to clean my roof… When I saw her I felt she deserved much more than what she had been doing with her parents… collecting garbage from the society and cleaning stairs, roofs…

She was very young… looked very bright to me…

I often saw her looking @ the society girls of her age… looking with an urge in her eyes… as if she also wanted to be like them… wear gud clothes like them and go to school like them…

Poor little girl… she had to pick garbage nd clean stairs while other girls of her age go to school…

Once I spoke to her and advised her lot of things like she shld cover her face while handling garbage and cleaning… May be she felt closeness with me that she started giving her typical APPEALING SMILE whnever she saw me…

I somehow felt she was expecting something from me… as if she wanted to say --- I also want to be like other girls… WHY cant I go to school and wear gud clothes like them?

I read her eyes…

Couldn’t help her much bu gave her few gud clothes to wear and a new BRIGHT RED JACKET to wear in winters…

Her eyes sparkled with happiness…

I felt as if I received the double benefit @ the cost of that BRIGHT RED JACKET…

Her APPEALING SMILE with sparkles in her eyes gave me all the satisfaction I could never hav got wearing that jacket myself…

Case Studies - Sai Kaka (Spiritual Website)

Sai Kaka ( Spiritual Website)
Scope of work – Static website design - Eng/Hindi

 
This project was a challenge in itself as it was a Spiritual Content and has to be very minimal in terms of showcasing and appealing enough for the users...


The content includes text, Video, Audio and Pictures clearly it was a case of high multimedia showcasing project.
The major challenge was to be secular design. To do justice with the thoughts we used relevant solors and pictures.
We developed few design ideas to go with and finally selected one with a blue tint...

The mass production was towards the sudio/vide/pics collections of Sai Kaka...

The emphasis was solely on the content and not the religion.

Graphicore successfully launched http://www.saikaka.com in Aug 2012 soon looking forward to launch the hindi version...

Case Study - Icing on the CAKE

Icing on the CAKE

Scope of work – Logo Design

The Client is into designer cake making. They make designer cakes with more creative emphasis on the icing.

Client was looking for a new style of logo that should be modern, sleek and appealing.

We tried various styles with the main emphasis on typos, ICING and colors.
As per the concept, ICING should get more emphasis as it all about it only.

The logo design was a fresh and unique idea and after few amendment for the typo which I felt should have been calligraphy / designer style, we went ahead with ne style and finalised it.

Case Study - Nepathya

Nepathya – An emerging Production House

Scope of work – Logo Design & Corporate Design

The client wanted a fresh modern style logo design. They are Young & Emerging Production House.

We focussed on the sleek styles pastel shades with value addition of N as crafted in some style.
It had to be modern yet sleek yet conveying the value with design as well as color.

We had to provide them few color options too.

Thoughtfully, we worked on around 8 logo styles with different shades and styles.

Styling ‘N’ of Nepathya was the biggest challenge at the same time keeping the design stylish yet sober.

Initially client was keen on going with google green and blue shade and it was a challenge to convince them with some other color shade I was convinced with to be better appealing.

I had to give them what I thought was good for them.

We successfully attracted them with it and finally they selected the color option we suggested.

Afterwards, we produced the Corporate Designs for them too.

Overall, it was a short yet smart nd challenging experience with the client as since its an emerging organisation , the brand identity had to play a big role in their advertisement & PR and we successfully developed the saem for them.

We certainly look forward for a long-lasting business relationship with this client.

Case Study - MoveOn

MoveOn – a Modern Retail Organization http://www.moveon.in
Scope of work: Logo Design and Website design/development

The client came to me with a blank head knowing nothing about the websites but wanted the web presence for his business.

We verified that their brand identity, their logo also needed an alteration and a modern touch with the business meaning added to it.

We started with identifying the brand color through logo and offered them various (around 8-10) logo design options and they selected one design with blue and green color option.

We emphasize here on the brand color of the logo also as the same color has to be reflected in the organisation’s corporate communications through design and advertising in future as the base color theme.

After the logo selection, we moved on to the layout creations with certain themes defining the website. Giving them few layout creatives with the website innovations and navigational flow options.

The creatives were meant to show different ways the website theme can be carried
out.

Also the designs were focussed on the product and distribution sections as these are the core operational features of the organisation.

Client selected one design as home page design and then we moved on the inner pages structures/designs.

Main feature of the site being its Customized Fash based Product Gallery where we divided the products into various categories/sub-categories. The gallery has been showcased as a one stop component where you can select and see any category and its products at any point of time.

The Mother Navigation of the site was designed keeping User Interactivity in mind to ease the user for easy navigation throughout the website.

The website was added with the feature of Opening Flash animation where products are showcased @ the first glance registering the organisation’s value.

The website was completed and made live on time and the project considered as successful with Graphicore being the incharge of website maintenance in future.

We had a wonderful experience working on this project and look forward for a healthy and strong business relation with this potential
