Péter Cseh

GRAPHIC | 2023 | Visual identity

The minimalist logo designed for Péter Cseh evokes the guitar’s form: strings appear at the sound hole—where the player sets them in motion—while the sound hole itself symbolizes resonance, fullness, and projection; the typography balances gentle pulse with geometric order, uniting lightness and structural harmony.

MORE

Péter Cseh is a jazz guitarist and faculty member at the Bartók Conservatory and Újpest’s Erkel Gyula Music School. Beyond performing his own music with the Cseh Péter Trio (with Marcell Gyányi and Ambrus Richter), he is active in multiple ensembles (Electric Bebop Band Budapest, Nagy Emma Quintet, Mester Dániel Trio, Tóth Viktor Skylark Metropolitan) and has shared stages with leading Hungarian and international artists including Mihály Dresch, Attila László, Mihály Borbély, Tibor Tátrai, Soweto Kinch, and Hamid Drake.

His music is marked by breadth, refined arrangement, and a high level of improvisational presence. His originals open both lyrical and propulsive worlds, remaining proportionate and sensitive in every detail. His playing honors classic jazz traditions while embracing modern, fusion-tinged sound exploration. Whether acoustic or overdriven, his guitar work is nuanced and expressive; the varied structures of his pieces turn performances into compelling journeys—balancing drive and lyricism, discipline and freedom.

The logo’s minimalist language nods to the guitar’s silhouette while evoking the poised, free-flowing quality of his playing. The strings appear at the sound hole—the point of motion—while the hole itself, whose role is to “release” the resonance of the body, stands for the music’s fullness and projection. The supporting typography counterpoints a subtle pulse with geometric regularity, preserving airy lightness alongside structural harmony.
