Shakti did a great job for me. I love my logo. It is unique and sharp looking. He was very creative and provided many good choices to work with. Shakti is very professional and he provided anything that I asked for in a very timely manner. I would recommend him.

He has also recently updated my website with graphics and his ideas to make the site better. He did this in a timely manner and I enjoyed working with him and seeing what he would come up with next. He works with integrity and a fair price.

“We approached Shakti to design our wedding stationery including hotel keycard jackets, tags, and customized room signs. This was really important to us as we wanted our friends and family to have a consistent wedding experience and keep everything very personalized. From the get go, Shakti was 100% attentive, patient and listened to everything we had to say. His attention to detail is marvelous. He went through tireless iterations till we were completely satisfied! We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for any design work!”

Working with Shakti was a pleasure. I found him to be very accomodating, responsive and helpful when I asked for feedback regarding my thoughts and direction for our logo at El Dorado Almonds.

We are proud to recommend his services to anyone looking to design a logo.

Working with Shakti on this design was so organic and natural! Shakti helped me come up with the name as well as the tagline on this project. It’s like you understood the mother brand well and were able to translate my thoughts into the design perfectly, and so we didn’t have to spend as much time moving back and forth between iterations. I like the way you share your inputs and find a way to incorporate your suggestions without imposing on your clients. Thanks for helping create Body Mantra!

Shakti did a fantastic and patient job in designing the artwork for my debut album ‘Chasing The Dark’. He worked tirelessly and passionately for my cause (and continues to do so after the project is done), was at all times excellent and punctual in communication, and delivered the final concepts with expertise and precision.

Although he is not based in North America, his transparent process and timely delivery confirmed that there was nothing to worry about. It was great to work with him.

Shakti’s inputs and work have been on point for us! He takes genuine interest in the work, and usually has design insights that always keep the brand’s objectives in mind. He has been a good resource for us and I am sure we will continue to work with him in the future!

Our logo development and design for The Black Tomato went beyond expectation with the help of Shakti. His immediate feedback and suggestions not only incorporated our thoughts, but also his design and marketing expertise.

The result was a logo that visually reflects and conceptually executes our Martini Bar concept. We would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for logo design and brand consulting.

Shakti has a knack of drawing out what you visualize in your mind. I was amazed to see how quick he was in understanding what I wanted when I approached him to design the logo for my Bespoke Tailoring label HP Su Misura. The result was a sharp and crisp looking monogram… and that’s precisely what I wanted!

His work for my Loungewear label Holma has been outstanding, the brand placement he managed to achieve for the brand was brilliant. He also took care of the digital media marketing for the same, which was very high quality work with words that hit all the right notes. We needed to create a new fashion statement using Pajamas in the outdoors and the creatives achieved that. The best part about his design work is the precision and the attention to detail… I can go so far to say that sometimes I feel his work could pass a microscope test!!

Equipped with professional expertise to develop ideas into creative, highly functional, & well-communicated design pieces, I am looking to work with clients that value a good design aesthetic.

I'd like to think that my aesthetic for all things beautiful has something to do with the fact that I'm in the creative business, although I do understand it has more to do with just having good taste!

As a creative person, I am always on the look out for interesting opportunities and look forward to working with fresh and exciting projects! To keep my skills sharp, I also undertake projects in other creative avenues, be it working on theatrical productions, photo-shoots or writing scripts, always trying to bring something fresher to the table.

I also run a small independent writing and music website project (DownrightFiction.com) where I interview and feature independent writers and musicians from all over.  I also love to travel and share some of my experiences in the photo gallery section here.

Like my style? Feel free to get in touch with me and we can started on something new! Say hello at : hello [at] designbyshakti [dot] com or use the contact page to instantly get in touch!
