Ardent IT Solutions
Daryl Ouellette brought me on to help brand his company, Ardent IT Solutions – a firm focused on transforming vulnerable servers into secure, high-performance systems. The goal: a skeep, modern identity with a slightly futuristic edge.
“Arden has fire connotations, burning, glowing, but I also want tech, like lots of tech in there. Think Blade Runner arcologies. Is that enough to star with?”
After a few weeks of exploration, we landed on a partially transparent axonometric “A” paired with a vibrant, pulsing color palette. From there, I developed a full style and brand guide for future designers and applied the visual system to a JIRA-style ticketing interface.
If you’re in the market for sharp, reliable, on-site or remote IT serves in Maryland or DC, Daryl’s your guy.
