Pawel Works mark

BI & AI Specialist with 12+ years across analytics, risk, data quality and reporting, including seven years in banking and 5+ years delivering enterprise BI for international retail, insurance and media organizations.

How we letter

Rules that travel from the mark to the work

  • Do not stretch

    The two lines of the name are the same width because the spacing was calculated, not eyeballed. Models get the same treatment: no fake flexibility that breaks under load.

  • No shadow, no relief

    The plate is flat. The report is honest. If a number needs a glow to look important, the number is wrong.

  • Gold is a bar, not a coat

    Accent lives in the mark and the rule. Everywhere else it competes with the work. We keep it scarce.

  • Hand it over

    A first cut is a beginning. The job is the documentation, the training, and the file someone else can keep.
