(letter included in mailed package) I have enclosed copies of our second and third issues. Thanks again for your efforts. We consistently get raves about our design. In fact, one prominent Toronto basketball player has a tattoo of THE DISH logo (without the text) on his arm! (At least that’s what my son swears). It sure has come a long way from colouring magic marker renditions in my dining room in the early hours of the morning, that’s for sure.

Winner OVA Logo competition
Congrats on winning the logo competition Kristine + client. It is amazing that even though the GTA has 5+ million people, it is pretty easy for talent to stand out of the crowd. Glad to hear that the OVA recognized it when they saw it. Good luck, and don’t be surprised when competitors comes knocking on your door for a full-time creative director…Let me know if you need any product testers…t-shirts, shorts, warm-ups, etc!

LinkedIn Recommendation – Volleyball
I have known Kristine for years – we first met while she was an assistant coach, mentor and motivator for the Sheridan Bruins Women’s Varsity Volleyball team. Her energy, clear thinking and self discipline then was an inspiration to both staff and player alike. Our contact continued as she progressed through her career and now in her current endeavour as Director of K Design Studio. She continues to show the same hard work, dedication and creative brilliance that she has always been known for and it translates well into the approach she takes with her clients and business affiliates. There is much more to gain from working with Kristine than just a job well done – her energy and creativity will ignite your marketing campaign and elevate it to new levels.

I’m super happy with the concepts you sent over. But the thing is, it’s like going to a really awesome restaurant where all the food is amazing and somehow you’re supposed to make a choice. And then the waitress says, “oh, I forgot to tell you about the specials.” Funny, you had me pretty much sold on your initial concepts. Then you sent over the 2nd batch of stuff and you totally had my head spinning. Can’t choose. Woman…why do you have to be so good at your job?

Amazing job. We like them all, and especially like 10C the most.
Thank you very much. It is nice to know that Angel has such a talented friend. The last few weeks, I am used to hearing from people what a nice business card Angel has. I used to think that most people don’t really look at a business card, so it is really something when someone takes the time to “wow” about a business card. Now, I am looking forward to hearing them saying that about mine. A business card is a business tool. You have just made my hand saw into a powerful electric
circular saw. Thanks again.

With regards to logo design and feedback from our athletes: the beach players loved the beach gear this year. Indoor athletes really liked all of the logo designs for all program areas. We did not hear complaints from anyone. Kids LOVED bright coloured anything. I.e. the fluorescent orange and teal together was a hit. As was the purple and bring pinks.

On a personal note, the wedding t-shirts were loved by all!!! Everyone wanted to have their own logo created after seeing what you put together. I’m looking forward to another fun year of logo design.

Intisara Inc.- Logo & Brochure
I have to say that I think you chose the best logo. I really, really love it! It is bright, the circle and the dot in the middle are the ‘dot’ of the ‘ i ‘, the circle, to me, also represents never-ending, constantly evolving. The swirling pattern in the middle is unique and gives a feminine touch, the lettering is strong and ‘triumphant’. I feel that it is the essence of Intisara and what it represents but also who I am. Thank you, again, for capturing all that is important to me and making this logo who we are. We being Intisara and myself.

I was so excited when I picked up the brochure on Friday night. I have been given so many compliments from people on how professional and beautiful it is. Thank you sooooo much. It was well worth the money and the time invested.

I contracted Kristine on the design (cover & layout) for a poetry / illustration book entitled “Collapsed Lung Expressions”. She was referred to me and I can see why. Kristine is great at brainstorming concepts, working in a collaborative fashion and delivering great work both on time and within budget. Most of all she is simply a pleasure to work with and I look forward to the opportunity to work with her again.

Today I was also contacted by a woman from a marketing company who was viewing local landscaping company’s websites to select one landscaper to be invited to an upcoming sport and hobby exhibition in Windsor. She chose my company because of the quality of our website both in terms of the type of clientele we service, our photographs and the words we used to describe ourselves and our services. She wanted to know who was responsible for designing our website so I gave her your name. Thanks again!

After meeting Kristine in LA, I knew K Design Studio was going to be the perfect fit for me. Starting off with some small projects, I was continually impressed by the quality and efficiency of her work. Most recently, Kristine took on the task of revamping my entire business website (www.alexkazamgymnastics.com). She was there every step of the way ensuring everything was progressing and I was happy with each piece. Always close by to respond to my urgent needs at a moment’s notice, I felt I had her consistent support.

During the process, Kristine inspired me on a personal level to pursue my business goals and pushed me to my limits of success. Having my new website now launched feels fantastic and I owe it all to Kristine’s fantastic work. She has inspired me to pursue my dreams and start my business going out with a BANG.

“ If you weren’t able to be at our April meeting, you really missed out! Our Guest Speaker, Kristine Verbeek, bowled us over with her energy, enthusiasm and promotion of graphic arts as a career. She is truly a wonderful mentor to young people considering this as a career option”.

Such wonderful and encouraging words about you and your presentation.

LinkedIn Recommendation – Thrive Live Blood Microscopy – Logo
I. LOVE. MY. LOGO.
In the past, I had almost always been disappointed with the process and products of graphic designers that I had worked with, to the point that I taught myself some basic Photoshop and Illustrator skills and just started doing it myself. I should add that I am VERY particular. However, when I started my own business I realized that I didn’t have the objectivity or the brain space to create my own logo, AND I thought that my concept would be difficult to represent visually, PLUS I wanted it to be super amazing. That was a tall order, but I got all of it and more with Kristine at K Design Studio. My experience was amazing from beginning to end:

Step 1: We met up to for an initial brainstorming session. Kristine asked a lot of great questions about the details of my business (practical and emotional), which really got me thinking, and ultimately helped me with my business plan in addition to the logo design process. She showed me examples of some of her logos, and gave me pointers to find logo inspiration online, as well as some resources for other aspects of my business.

Step 2: Kristine compiled my answers with the inspirational images that I had collected, and came up with Round 1, which totalled 22 different logo ideas!

Step 3: After I had given my feedback on the logo ideas, Kristine compiled Round 2: 15 variations of the design concepts that I had gravitated toward in Round 1.

Step 4: After I had spent some time mulling over Round 2, we met up at Kristine’s office. We played with colours from her Pantone book and I got to fuss over the spacing of minute details like the dot over the “i”. Being able to come to her office super expedited the process, and it allowed us to combine Kristine’s expertise with my need for control.

Step 5: I have my logo! Shortly after our meeting Kristine sent me a vector file of at least 10 versions of my final logo (horizontal, vertical, 1 colour, 3 colour, 5 colour, light background, dark background etc.), including the font and Pantone information. Kristine sent me off with expert advice on how to manage my own printing (I wish I could outsource all design work to her), and assured me of her continued support should I need her help with anything.

Kristine employs a great balance of creativity and professionalism. I am very impressed with her process and my final logo design. Every time I look at my beautiful logo, I get happy!

Kristine is the most talented artist I have worked with for over 30 years in the business. Her talent in freehand drawing and in various mediums brings life to her digital work. Never have I been let down, her professionalism to meet every deadline, always delivering more than expected, and her eye for detail is admirable. She has the talent to lead Disney in design and creativity but enjoys the independence of working for herself. She is pursued by many. On every big project I work on, I always say, “I have the perfect and incredibly talented person in mind that has to be on this or I am not doing it.
