Logo design: Milk Street
July 9th, 2012 - 12:55This was a great job because I bloody love cheese. Milk Street have a regular stall on Holmfirth Market and I was referred by another stallholder for whom I have done some design work.
I kind of knew what I was going for from the off on this job. The stall already has a “Milk Street” street sign hanging above it, so it went without saying that the sign element got incorporated into the design. Over and above that I thought a nice round design would lend itself well to little stickers for sealing up the greaseproof-paper wrapping around the cheese.
The I hand drew the milk churn and pile’o'cheese illustration to give a bit of a rustic feel to the finished design.













Dear Owen,
My name is Jamie and I am actually a cousin of a Milk Street Cheeses employee. I just wanted to let you know I love your design. I am a graphic designer myself and was wondering if you could spare any advice from your experiences. Your hierarchy of information is inspiring and your color choices look great on the computer. I am glad I got to see your design. It gave me a bit of inspiration for my own designs. Thanks again, Jamie Allen
