[maˈɲana]
spanish, “tomorrow”
hi, i am kostas mañana.
I’m a graphic designer with thirteen years of experience in visual identity.
I live in Tbilisi, Georgia. I work all over the world
Creating brand logos and identities has been my passion since my childhood. My University technical training and additional art education combined with an ability to see beauty in things and extensive studio and remote work experience help me bring to life ideas that require engineering precision on the one hand and aesthetically pleasing appearance on the other. I enjoy creating turnkey projects from start to finish that takes the pain out of the graphic design process, fulfilling each order with attention and love.
Mañana is my creative alter-ego and the design studio I am the only member
I value my time and the time of my clients, so I don’t take for work projects that needed to be done “yesterday”. In design and life I try to adhere to the philosophy of “slow motion”: I am not prone to short-term trends and rely on techniques that don’t become outdated, I don’t chase super profits and prefer quality to quantity.
At the same time, “slowly” does not mean for a long time. “Slowly” is just the right amount of time to create a really recognizable and great design.

Probably the most difficult thing in the process of creating a logo and the entire identity of a company is to translate the client’s vision, their understanding of the essence of their business into the language of images, color palette and text. At this stage, disputes and contradictions often arise between the customer and the designer.
I am grateful to Konstantin that we went through this difficult stage together and the result of work on the logo of my floristic workshop was pleasing not only to both of us, but also to my regular clients. They saw in it a reflection of my approach to floristry and this beautiful and hard business. The color grade and the font of the logo set a festive mood, and the clarity of the lines of the central figure emphasizes our attitude to the principles of doing business – high-quality fulfillment of orders just in time.
When I finally was ready to order a logo for my small web studio I turned to Konstantin without hesitation.
I have known him for many years, he is very creative and, at the same time, a reliable specialist in his field.
I filled out a brief form to make terms of reference, and after the agreed time, Konstantin not only showed his work, but also explained the meaning of certain design elements. This filled the created logo with deep meaning and to some extent even determined the direction of development of my web studio.
Thank you very much, Kostya, the logo now flaunts on all documents, business cards and in the Internet!

I have been working with designers for a long time and I quickly understand who is a professional and who isn't.
Konstantin immediately showed a high level, even at the stage of filling out a brief and creating a technical task.
I ordered him the development of a new logo for the nut shop. We were pleased with the result, although we edited a lot of versions. But, this is more due to the fact that we, as customers, couldn't agree among ourselves.
Ready to recommend Konstantin 100%!
I turned to Konstantin to create a landing page for my business project. We discussed the initial plan, concept and started work.
Communication was prompt, we quickly discussed all emerging issues, resolved them and moved forward. The result exceeded my expectations!
Konstantin not only made a landing page with a quality design, but most importantly, he subtly captured the nuances and style of the business and reflected it on the site. I especially liked this! Plus, he provided me with technical support and assistance after the launch of the site. The only negative thing is the small time delays at the start of work, but they were really small and not critical.
If new design tasks arise, I will definitely turn to Konstantin! And I recommend him to everyone!

We worked with Konstantin on the logo and additional illustrations for the training materials.
Kostya knows his business, sees important details in advance. He worked thoughtfully, putting meaning and ideas into his work.
Provided some good options that helped us make a choice.
He made necessary adjustments so that we, as customers, were satisfied with the result.
He also consulted us on additional issues of design, fonts and printing of the entire material, etc.
We really appreciate your cooperation!
I wish you great success in your work!

Many years ago I ordered a logo.
It turned out to be exactly how I wanted it.
I really enjoyed working with Konstantin, and especially because there was flexibility in the process and we could quickly make necessary adjustments.
If I was asked if you would recommend ordering a design from him. My answer is definitely yes!
After all, in addition to quality, the price for the work was just like a dream!
A lot of my small projects have been created with the help of Konstantin's artistic talents. The most important was a logo design for my book. It was no easy task: we needed this logo for the cover as well as within the plot. The logo designed by Konstantin fit perfectly. It subtly reflects the symbolism and aesthetics that I would love to convey. This logo can be printed on a T-shirt, used as a print or as a design for a tattoo. It will look beautiful and coherent at any place and in any size.
Konstantin knows his business well, whether it is design or creating a site from scratch. He will do everything in good taste and at an affordable price.
I have repeatedly recommended his services to both my friends and my boss at work, and I can say with confidence that everyone was satisfied. I would love to recommend him to you too!

For almost ten years Konstantin was the gifted hands of the regional magazine Panorama Chernozemia.
We worked with him over about dozen issues with great pleasure.
I wholeheartedly recommend this designer if you need a pro in this field.
I don't have a lot of experience in working with designers. I turned to Konstantin for a logo for a non-profit organization, letterhead design and social media design.
I was surprised how Konstantin managed to implement all the wishes in the first version.
The customer was very pleased.
I would definitely recommend his services!

why so expensive?
Not at all. Think of it as an investment in a future brand that will pay off in a couple of months. If you aren't ready to invest money in a logo and you need it just to check the box, perhaps in this case it would be more appropriate to turn to starting out designers, for example, on one of the freelance sites.
why so cheap?
I don’t rent an office, I don’t hire managers, I don’t have a secretary and a cleaner, the total cost of the services is included into the final price. At all stages, I work with the client one-on-one, which improves efficiency, simplifies communication, eliminating the effect of a “broken phone”, and reduces costs.
can i get a discount?
how is development time calculated?
On average, work on projects under the Express Plan takes 1 week, Optimal - 2 weeks, Full ~ 1 month. A moment of receiving the payment as well as the brief and all necessary materials from the client is considered to be the beginning. The start of work may be shifted depending on my workload with other projects at the moment. Write to me right now so that I can set aside time for you and calculate individual deadlines.
what if i need it urgently?
The Express Plan may look suitable for you however there will be only one logo version without a possibility of making changes to it. In any case, please contact me, perhaps I can offer something on an individual basis.
is it possible to see the sketches in progress?
I don't show intermediate versions because I believe that only finished designs can create a desired impression, and this practice breaks the sequence of the development process.
do you have any guarantees?
I value my reputation, I lead a public and open life, my works and reviews speak for themselves. With all my clients, I sign a contract, which is insured by both parties in case of unforeseen circumstances and controversial issues.
what if i don't like the result?
Don't worry. I'll work from a detailed brief that you filled out, which will help me understand not only your tastes, but also the tastes of your clients, and do the best job!
do you work with legal entities? what if i need a cheque?
Yes! I am registered as self-employed, pay taxes on my activities and have the ability to work, conclude contracts and issue checks to both individuals and legal entities.
i also need a website, ad, video... can you help me?
I also do a lot of things besides logos and identities. In particular, I make websites. I also cooperate with a large number of specialists in related fields, and if I can't help with something on my own, I'll be happy to recommend the services of trusted colleagues.
is it possible to meet and personally discuss the details?
Yes, if you live in Tbilisi, Georgia. But, as my experience shows, any negotiations and discussions can be no less successfully conducted remotely via e-mail, messengers, audio and video calls with a screen broadcast function. I'm ready to work with clients from all over the world, regardless of geography!
i still have questions, where to write?
