Deliveroo springs a new logo

Deliveroo has updated it's identity to become more sharper and minimal, they have however retained the Kangaroo imagery in keeping with the 'roo' part of the brand name, which I think is a nice touch and one that could of easily been swiped away, this gives the brand something to attach and promote itself with rather than being typical and sticking with food or conventional delivery imagery.

Before and after comparison from Under Consideration

Although I like the new style, I don't think it reflects the brand quite so well, with some tweaking and simplifying the original logo could have been updated and I feel that would have been a far better approach to take than rebranding completely to a style I feel is quite cold.

Illustration style show through posters

The style they have used I think is quite nice in it's actual design and the simplicity of it stands out against the competition, however I feel for a company who's basis is food this message is now not clear to the consumer. If you did not know who Deliveroo were would you immediately know that they are a restaurant food delivery company, or just another competitor to ao.com? This is the key point that I feel is the issue with this rebrand and I'm certain they will switch out the illustrations for actual food in the near future.

EE Rebranding Process

UK mobile phone operators Orange and T-Mobile who merged to become Everything Everywhere, later simplified their name to EE. As of 2016, EE is soaring in profits, seeing a 10% increase to over £6.5bn in revenue in the three years from 2010 to 2013. More recently EE was purchased by the UK communication giant British Telecom Group more commonly known as BT. The success of EE’s new status as a highly successful mobile phone operator is underpinned by that of their successful rebranding strategy. This sentence itself is a relative contradiction as from the two years that followed from 2010, when Orange and T-Mobile merged the company traded under the brand name ‘Everything Everywhere’ this didn’t appear to catch on, rollout of this brand was slow, and to many people Orange and T-Mobile were trading exactly as they always have. Small trial concept Everything Everywhere stores were launched and the predicted feedback came back that the company was struggling to get the new bran...

City of Las Vegas Logo

The new City of Las Vegas Government logo in my opinion is there in thought and concept but the end result isn't as great as it should be. The typography is in keeping with the clear 1960's Googie style they were aiming for but through the bad stroke on the V and the strange arrangement of lettering specifically the last S is odd and seems a little rushed. The original logo was far more appropriate to what I would think of as more the corporate professional logo for the Las Vegas Government and I feel that the other is just trying to make the brand feel more youthful and modern but isn't quite successful. For this visual identity, we choose the font Big Noodle Titling for the “CITY OF” type because of its wonderful clarity in any medium. Big Noodle captures an industrial feel with a modern, progressive flair that is perfectly timeless. The “Las Vegas” type originated from the font, Stay High by Syed Faraz Ahmed. We transformed each letter to embody the mood and sty...

Virgin Holidays Live Advert

“The tension in the room was unbelievable” Virgin Holidays recently produced a live advert for TV something to be shown once to a captive audience that had to flow perfectly and required months of planning. The advert did feature some errors and mistakes but I feel this actually helped reinforce the point that the video at each location is live, this isn't something that's been filmed in advance and edited nicely together in a cosy studio, it's raw, it's new and it doesn't always go as planned. I pulled this quote from Creative Review who themselves wrote an article on the ad. “The tension in the room was unbelievable,” says Ratigan of the broadcast moment, which took place at ITN Productions’ Master Control room in London. “There was a fair amount of noise from the gallery director and technicians, but the client, agency and production company people, including myself, were silent. There was nothing we could do except wait and watch.” I think what Ratiga...
