Ali Swanton Brand Identity: Moodboard

Process

The client wanted this brand identity to be bold, yet convey sustainability, warmth, reliability and integrity. I used these brand values as a starting point for to create a moodboard.

 

The client loved the green tones, paired with bold contrasting colours, with dense illustrative repeating patterns.

I began creating logo ideas, using serif fonts which was the client’s preference. One unused concept incorporated the image of a Swan (tying into the client name of Swanton) into a monogram.

 

For the final logo design we settled on a stylish bold serif typeface featuring connecting typography, as well as a monogram submark, which could also be used as a framing device.
