Secret 7" 2014

Secret 7" 
Track: Lorde- Team 

Team:
Teams normally have members with complementary skills and generate synergy through a coordinated effort which allows each member to maximize his/her strengths and minimize his/her weaknesses. Team members need to learn how to help one another, help other team members realize their true potential, and create an environment that allows everyone to go beyond their limitations.
Transport logistics executives can select teams of horsesdogs or oxen for the purpose of conveying goods.


Wait 'til you’re announced
We’ve not yet lost all our graces
The hounds will stay in chains
Look upon your greatness
That you’ll send the call out
(Send the call out [15x])

Call all the ladies out
They’re in their finery
A hundred jewels on throats
A hundred jewels between teeth
Now bring my boys in
Their skin in craters like the moon
The moon we love like a brother, while he glows through the room

Dancin' around the lies we tell
Dancin' around big eyes as well
Even the comatose they don’t dance and tell

[Chorus]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
Living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team

I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air, so there
So all the cups got broke shards beneath our feet but it wasn’t my fault
And everyone’s competing for a love they won't receive
'Cause what this palace wants is release

[Chorus]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
Living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team

I’m kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air
So there
I’m kinda older than I was when I revelled without a care
So there

[Chorus]
We live in cities you'll never see on screen
Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things
Living in ruins of the palace within my dreams
And you know, we're on each other's team
We're on each other's team
And you know, we're on each other's team
We're on each other's team
And you know, and you know, and you know


Lorde's singles and album covers, very simple, type focused. Slightly urban/city looking.







Wolf Pack 
Wolves also call out to the moon and to each other. 
'The hounds' - line 3 
'...can select teams of horsesdogs'

Dogs are descendants of wolves. 
Wolves are also wild and being out in the wilderness, not luxurious is a theme that Lorde focuses on in her music i.e. this track as well.

Classic Car and High-End Car Research


As my Dad was starting up his own classic car restoration business after twenty or so years  restoring classic/ vintage cars and high end cars, working with cars made by Aston Martin mainly. I was already aware of some of the cars he has been around and worked on for a lot of his life. And so as he was setting himself up as new establishment, I was asked by him to design his logo and come up with a name. 
I began by just looking around on other design sites to see what would come up when I typed in classic cars, or luxury cars. 
These where the images that came up… 














All of these images are very simple in their composition they focus on the car which is made to look almost beautiful my the photographer and the editing. The cars are almost always shot from the front and then a little to the side. They always look shiny, and streamlined, there is a feeling of luxury to all of these images and I felt that I needed to keep this feeling in the business's identity.

I also went on to look at classic car logos…
