Ronin Division | Logo Remixes

One design pillar of the streetwear brand, Ronin Division is remixed logos – commonly of the vintage video game variety. Remixing these logos requires a strong understanding of typography and systems. In order to work on these projects, I had to identify the systems and rules of the pre-existing logos and dissect them for their building blocks. However, typography is only half the battle (eh, maybe more closer to 3/4 of the battle. Once the typography was all set, I still had to recreate the effect and textures of the logo, which would often require a lot of layers, color-correction, and lighting manipulation.
