EMES

Martin Stratil, also known by his stage name EMES, is a Czech DJ and music producer specialising in house music. Based in the Czech Republic, EMES has built a reputation for delivering dynamic sets that showcase the depth and energy of house. His performances are defined by seamless mixing, and a distinctive style that resonates with both underground spaces and larger stages.

LOGO DESIGN

Logo Design

I designed a logo for Czech DJ Martin Stratil, who performs under the name EMES. Since his stage name is an abbreviation of four letters, I developed a square grid-based concept, with each letter occupying one quarter of the space. The similar letterforms allowed me to create a clean, symmetrical mark where the characters connect seamlessly — resulting in a bold, balanced logo that reflects his identity as a DJ.

VINYL COVER DESIGN

SOUNDCLOUD COVER

Soundcloud Cover

For EMES, I designed a clean and impactful SoundCloud cover using a professional portrait of him as the focal point. The goal was to keep the design simple yet striking, letting his image take centre stage to create a strong personal connection with listeners. The layout was optimised to display well across both desktop and mobile, ensuring consistency and professionalism on his music profile.
