DESIGN NAME: N&E Audio Logo Design
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Logo
INSPIRATION: The inspiration for N and E audio logo is from my audio editing experience at film production school in which we have to monitor the sound waveform to adjust the levels and even the speed. That experience helped me to develop the concept at the first stage. Further, I started to do a research about sound waveform. I need a clear and professional presentation to understand the logo quickly.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: N, E represent the name of founders Nelson and Edison. So Cloris put the N, E characters and waveform are integrated to create a new logo. Handcrafted HiFi is a unique and professional services provider in Hong Kong. She expected to present a High-end professional brand. Also, she wanted to create a highly relevant with the Brand industry.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The first design have nine stripes instead of 8, and more thinner, It's a bit harder to see N and E character, after client comments that I make the stroke more bold, it looks better and cleaner.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in March 2017 in Hong Kong
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: In the simple eight strokes to design an easy to see the N, E shape, I need to try many times to arrange strokes so that people can easy to understand the meaning of the logo.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: During the design process, I need to combine NE with waveform, and the hardest parts are arranged the stroke look more prominent and easy to read. The first draft I use thinner stroke to present the NE but it look a bit complicated, so I adjust the width of the stroke.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Sound waveform research, Google research
CHALLENGE: The primary challenge of this design is mixed abstract waveform and N, E shapes. In the beginning, the client said they like the idea of the logo, but worried people don't understand the meaning of the logo. They tried to make it more like a text font as a standard, I adhere to explain the idea and social perspective to them, and they finally use the logo.
