First of all, the finished product across the board was excellent. But what really stood out was Ilgar's process, POV and questions asked along the way. He took our company values to heart when creating the first round of ideas, took the feedback (they were all excellent by the way!) on our favorite and delivered a truly outstanding logo, color palette and visual identity that will be the way the market understands Alpha for years to come. Just first-class all around.", and "Illgar is a super talented, passionate and deeply thoughtful creative.
