DreamHack Showdown logo design
This year I had the pleasure to work with DreamHack on a new project Showdown. It is a multi-stop CS: GO tournament, that features 8 teams on-site at selected DreamHack festivals.
Client: DreamHack, through brand design director Jacob Lundmark
Logo design: Denis Davydov | Dlanid

Brief
During our first conversation with Jacob he said that we have only 3 days to get the job done. It was a real challenge to me, but I didn't have to worry because the brief was really nice and clear.

The Showdown logo is a part of Dreamhack's brands so it should be well fitted with the whole family.
Preferred logo shape and colors were proposed by a client
Sketching
We had not very much time, so after studying the brief I started the sketching process. As far as possible, I followed the task and came to 3 different concepts of the future Showdown logo.
Vectors
As the result, the final vectors were delivered in time - main full colored logo, one-color on black, one-color on light backgrounds and also only the title.

Final
The deadline was pretty tight and all the work including sketching, vectoring and edits supposed to be done within 3 days. So we did it and I'm very happy with the result. Many thanks to Jacob Lundmark, Fredrik Nilsson and whole the DreamHack team!
