Logo design is a remarkable form of visual storytelling that distills the entire essence of a brand into a single, memorable graphic symbol. More than just an aesthetic arrangement of shapes and colours, a great logo serves as the visual DNA of an organisation—communicating its values, personality, and unique identity in a fraction of a second.Skilled designers approach logo creation as an intricate art form, carefully balancing simplicity, typography, colour psychology, and graphic symbolism to craft images that can communicate volumes without uttering a single word. From the iconic swoosh of Nike to the minimalist apple of Apple Inc., these visual marks transcend mere corporate identification and become cultural symbols that resonate across global audiences. Here are a few logos I designed with its process and signified meaning. The Logo of St. Bonaventure Seminary , Peravoor, Kannur, Kerala . It has three layers. Bonaventure’s theology proposes that ‘everything is/has the fin...

Bird photography is a breathtaking art form that demands extraordinary patience, technical mastery, and a profound reverence for the natural world. Through sophisticated telephoto lenses , carefully concealed blinds , and an intimate understanding of animal behaviour, these visual storytellers transform split-second interactions into timeless images that illuminate the grace, vulnerability, and astonishing diversity of winged creatures. From the delicate iridescence of a sunbird’s feathers to the powerful silhouette of an eagle in flight , bird photography transcends mere documentation, becoming a powerful medium that connects human viewers to the intricate, often unseen worlds of our feathered companions. Each photograph is a frozen moment that invites us to marvel at the extraordinary complexity of life and our interconnected ecosystem.

 There's something profound about two sketches that I was forced into making, and in both cases, I was unable to finish; but they have given me confidence to tread through the magnificent world of art and design, at least in a minimal way.  My first meaningful artistic moment came in the fourth grade. School kalotsavams (festival of art and culture) are big in Kerela ; they happen in intra-school level to state level where districts compete for the prestigious prizes. It was school kalotsavam time. The St. Sebastian Lower Primary School, Nellikampoil , where I studied till fifth standard, was gearing towards picking the best talent to send out for inter school competitions. I was completely unaware of anything such as these. I am not sure why, I remember one of my teachers, Seema, almost carrying me to a classroom where the intra-school qualifying competition was happening from where they pick the best to go for competing with other schools.  When I reached the classroo...

When we step into a church, we are stepping out of ordinary and into the sacred space. In the Catholic tradition, every curve, colour, and block in a chapel isn’t just there to look beautiful—it is there to teach us, to remind us, and to draw us into the mysteries of our faith. I was asked to design the sanctuary of St. Bonaventure Seminary, Peravoor, encompassing the altar, the pulpit, the tabernacle, and the seating. Far from being just furniture, these pieces are a catechism in wood and stone. Let’s take a visual and spiritual journey through the sanctuary to understand the profound theology built into its very frame. The Altar: The Foundation of the Apostles and the Descent of Grace The altar is the beating heart of any Catholic church. Here, the design features a striking base made of twelve distinct blocks. The Twelve: These blocks represent the twelve tribes of Israel in the Old Covenant, fulfilled by the Twelve Apostles in the New Covenant. They remind us that our faith is ap...

Wildlife photography is a profound art form that demands extraordinary technical skill, deep ecological understanding, and an almost spiritual connection with the natural world. These visual storytellers venture into remote landscapes, waiting for hours or even days to capture a single, transcendent moment that reveals the raw beauty, complexity, and vulnerability of Earth's diverse creatures. From the piercing gaze of a predator to the tender interaction between a mother and her offspring , these images serve as both artistic masterpieces and critical documents of our planet's biodiversity , inspiring conservation , empathy, and a deeper understanding of the extraordinary web of life that surrounds us.

Wall murals and relief work designs represent some of humanity's most enduring and democratic forms of artistic expression, transforming ordinary architectural surfaces into captivating visual narratives that speak to both personal and collective experiences. These large-scale works consistently serve as powerful vehicles for cultural storytelling, social commentary, and aesthetic innovation. The interplay between two-dimensional murals and three-dimensional relief work creates particularly fascinating dynamics, where shadows and textures interact with colour and form to produce artworks that literally emerge from their architectural canvas. These public art forms continue to democratise creativity, turning city walls into galleries that are accessible to all, while simultaneously challenging our perceptions of where art belongs and how it can transform the spaces we inhabit. Opening a book is like opening a door. Large relief work depicting the power of education that transfor...
