What We Did

Logo Design

Share Case Study

The Before

The logo had a few challenges which primarily revolved around the icon. This made it difficult to use against solid-coloured backgrounds and across media. The use of a gradient as well as a faux shadow to give it a 3D impression added to the colour palette an unnecessary colour. The icon shape also informed the style which felt restrictive to the creative process (this has been explored in the brand guideline case study here).

The Outcome

Simplicity is all. The logo was simply cleaned by removing the faux shadow, using a cleaner border on the icon as well as giving it rules on how to be used against solid backgrounds. This simplification might seem minute at first but once you consider the production application requirements, it becomes easier to see its importance. Scenarios such as embroidery hadn’t been put to thought when using a gradient in the prior logo. 

Conclusion

Our years of experience can help your brand refine its investment i.e., the brand identity.
