Illustration: Social Media in Haiti


digital illustration
Quick illustration on free time.

Some illustration done for a colleague at PubliGestion. The mastermind behind the social media department, yes I was just the department’s conspirator. It gave me a sense of fun (like we’re doing something really, really cool to change Haiti) when we were creating the social media accounts, not to mention doing the PG Blog and writing its first entry! Designing and creating all those visual elements to jump-start PubliGestion’s Social Media Department after the 7.o-you-know-what in Haiti is something that was very fun to do and I’m personally looking forward to doing this again!
So to my colleague, kudos to you and to the fun we had in changing the social media landscape in Haiti!

State of Whitespacelover

Let's cover this map with more colors! ;-)

After two weeks of silence here at Whitespacelover, a silence due to life’s ups and downs, the lover is back again! No excuses though. So let’s start with the state of Whitespacelover. I’m very pleased to inform that a lot of changes happened to the blog since it’s inception last year namely: 
  1. I’m very happy to report that since the 28th of March, we’ve been gathering more and more visits from all over the world—we have visitors as far as Russia, more and more visits from Europe and the US. Thank you all! The visitor’s map looks a lot better with colours all over it. Top five visits come from Haiti, US, Philippines and then surprisingly Switzerland followed by Germany! The visits may not amount to thousands but nonetheless Merci beaucoup ! Thank you! Salamat po! Und danke! 
  2. Whitespacelover.com is now an officially registered domain. Making it more search engine friendly. Gives it a nice image too and opens up possibilities! 
  3. Some SEO practices were implemented to the site, namely: 
    • The introduction of meta tags and alt tags in the images. For some reason the bots love those. 
    • Titles are now geared towards being search engine friendlier. 
    • And of course, the obvious, using labels and peppering entries with keywords. The better optimization for search engines, the quicker the content gets to you or to people searching over the web. 
Life might’ve thrown in its unpleasant surprise this month, but life just gets better and better. More good things to come in the future, so stay tuned for the next entries.
If you want to see specific things that are more relevant to you, please leave your requests on the comment page below. Thank you!

Logo Padmasana

Keeping on a positive note, which we had for the past entries, here is a logo study made for Padmasana, the wellness clinic. It was a healing clinic in Pétion Ville, Haiti before the 7.o-you-know-what. It’s not exactly your typical clinic but it’s more like healing through meditation and connecting with your inner self. Personally, the singing bowls session (plus crystals) is enough to make everything alright. It’s as if you’re feeling your body for the first time. Inner peace oOoohhmmmmmmm, Oooohhmmmm...

This is the logo that got approved. Followed all the request of the client. ;-) The request, a lotus flower logo with very organic lines.
Padmasana logo, grey
I personally like this one. Maybe it could still be revised to make it more simple.
Padmasana logo, black
Okay, least favorite, but some people really like it.
