lark.
Brooklyn, NY
the challenge
Lark's vision was very contemporary and modern yet with an artisanal touch. This concept applied both to their interior design – warm balance of wood, metals and modern colors such as grey and lemon yellow.
the solution
They wanted the logo to represent the bird "lark" so I developed a bird that was both modern and yet had a hand drawn touch to it. The multiple lines also define the multiple activities offered by the space.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
"We worked with Stephane to develop a logo for our cafe and were blown away by her work. She was able to combine two distinct personalities and design aesthetics to create a bold, unique logo which represented both of us as co-owners/business partners. Most importantly, it represented the look and feel of the cafe we were opening.
Stephane is an incredibly talented and creative designer and we would recommend her without hesitation!"

gluckigluck
Berlin, Germany
the challenge
Sophie needed a powerful booth at a tradeshow in Paris to introduce her product to the French market. She believed that the gluckigluck vase/carafe spoke for itself and wanted a global ad campaign highlighting the noise the vase makes once water is poured from it.
the solution
The POS created was a series of posters introducing each color offered associated to different languages using "I gurgle" as a slogan. This was the kick-off the success of the brand.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
“Stephane got immediately what I wanted. She realized that on the biggest and busiest European design fair “Maison Objet" one had just a few seconds to catch new merchants.
So she designed these genius posters, pure, clear of any distraction and convincing.
The only two words she added expressed the one unique selling point of my product. Can it get any better? Needless to say: 30 new accounts during one show!"”
Followed the store, the rest is history

plein pot
Lausanne, Switzerland
the challenge
A previous client contacted me in regard of a new venture business he was starting. He decided to turn a hobby - cooking - into a side business. He needed a name and a full visual identity.
the solution
After much brainstorming I came up with "plein pot" which means "full jar" but also full on (fast and furiously successful) described well Thibault's personality but also gave room for the company to grow without locking him in the "condiments" aisle. I used a "full" typeface with a jar as the "O" of "pot". Simple and effective.

verbalon
Paris, France
the challenge
Sacha and Yannick took over the management of le "Verbalon" a typical little Parisian brasserie in the 13th district and needed to make it their own.
The font of the name could not change as the owner was not willing to change some of his collateral material. Yet they needed their audience to understand that it had been a shift and that the restaurant was aiming for a more diverse and dynamic clientele. Yannick was very keen on having an actual glass ( a verbalon is a typical type of wine glass).
the solution
My design sensibility is never much towards literal design. I was able to create the illusion of a glass by using a simple line to draw the silhouette of a verre-ballon. I also removed the "tail" which was on the "A" of Verbalon as it did not have a clear purpose and was poorly executed. The team and clientele were ecstatic about the result.

AGT
Global
the challenge
AGT International was already signing billions in contracts when they decided that they need the visual communication for their 10 to be created with a very fast turnaround.
the solution
We achieve a strong logo by merging the idea of the globe (international) and the shield (security) to embrace the two most important aspect of their business. We use the same approach for all the companies while embracing the local culture and sometimes specific request from the CEOs.

arabesqueS
Genève, Switzerland
the challenge
Marie-Caroline reached out to me as she started her coaching agency. She needed a visual identity and a name.
the solution
Dance was a key element for the client, a good metaphor for self-development. The name “Arabesques” came naturally. The Arabesque position was a great departure point for the development of the logo. One foot as an anchor and one used for soaring. I also wanted to merge the "A" of Arabesques with the position and the keywords given to me by Marie-Caroline: balance, sense of direction, anchorage. The logo needed to represent both the A and an arabesque without being literal. I traced the different lines of the arabesque and rotated them slightly in order to make the "A" a little more obvious.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
"Stephane Bee is an inspired designer, a real artist, mixing acute intelligence, insight and efficient technical know-how : the result of her work went far beyond my expectations.
When I asked her to create the communication for my new practice (cards, paper, website etc.), she started by carefully listening to me, by asking me questions about what I wanted to transmit, by asking me words that defined my work.
A few days later, she proposed me a logo that deeply moved me in the sense that she captured something that went beyond my words, something like the essence of what I want to transmit. Her creative process is fascinating.
She is a great professional that could give me sound counselling on all the medias, while always letting me have the final choice. Working with Stephane Bee has been an exciting adventure and I strongly recommend her.
— Marie-Caroline Bertoldo, Founder, Life Coach
