Among a page and one from the internet, I found the blog of Masaki Santo a design laboratory in the city of Cuenca and discovered that one of the heads that are in that boat was my teacher ideas. With some abuse of confidence, I will allow me to reproduce a text of his property below.
From here the studio lot and greetings to Juan Carlos.
A logo According to Wikipedia, "is a graphic, visual or auditory-verb and serves a person, company, institution or product to represent. The logos and symbols often enclose evidence about who they represent ...
