The Process

The goal is to stay clear, collaborative, and grounded the whole way through.

  • Every project begins with a conversation. Smart questions, lead to deep dives into what makes your brand tick. From there, a tailored proposal or package is shaped to meet the moment.

  • Ideas come to life through dialogue and drafts, exploring creative directions, refining the details, and ensuring every element aligns with the clients goals.

  • Once everything lands, final files are delivered with care. For projects headed into production, print-ready files are prepped and passed on, ensuring nothing’s left hanging.

  • "Working with John Takacs on the branding for 50West Productions has been one of the most rewarding creative collaborations I've had. John designed all of our branding, including the logo people constantly compliment, and played a key role in bringing my vision to life. He was incredibly patient, offered multiple options, welcomed feedback, and never hesitated with revisions. John helped me see that refining a brand is a journey. His thoughtful, iterative process showed how much he cared about understanding me and what 50West stands for. He also produced and installed our window decals at both locations. The glass office door still draws compliments. John is a true creative gem in this community. I can’t recommend him enough."

    David Curtis | Owner | 50WestProductions.com

  • “I’ve known John for over 15 years and respect him both professionally and personally. John is extremely creative, but what’s most impressive is his level of detail. He is extremely meticulous and organized and always goes above and beyond when showing you options for your project. I’ve used John for personal projects including the branding (logo, business cards, promotional material, website design, signage) for my company as well as my wife’s company. I’ve also recommended John to numerous clients looking for a top-notch graphic designer. He is my go-to person for all design related needs, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. John is truly the best!”

  • “We had an outstanding experience working with John Takacs. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand our vision, values, and goals. He created a logo that truly reflects who we are as an organization; bold, professional, and unique. In addition to the logo, he has designed swag for us on several occasions, including t-shirts, jackets, and many more over the 10 years I have worked with him, all of which were a huge hit with our team and community. His creativity, clear communication, and ability to deliver high-quality work exceeded our expectations. We’re proud to showcase our new branding and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for thoughtful, impactful design work.”

    Monica Haskell | Chaffee County DHS | Director

  • “Working with John to rebrand my logo for my beauty studio was such a great experience. He’s incredibly patient, super creative, and really knows his stuff. What I loved most is that he didn’t just design, he also helped me design and find a signage company that fit my budget without sacrificing quality. Everything came out beautifully! I’ll definitely be working with him again for my upcoming product launch. Highly recommend!”

  • “I worked with John Takacs to create packaging designs, designs for vape hardware, in-store marketing, merch, and more for my Colorado brand, ABV Cannabis Co. It was an absolute pleasure working with John. He brings the perfect mix of cannabis industry knowledge, professionalism, attention to detail, and design expertise to the table for an all-encompassing design project like we were working on. John understands the landscape of a highly regulated industry and is able to navigate hurdles with ease and efficiency. There is no question that I would work with him on more projects like these and I highly recommend John for any and all design and brand development needs.”
