Nando's

Nando's has recently refreshed it's identity to keep the brand looking fresh and current.


The logo itself has been simplified and reduced down to three colour ways, a 'PERi Red Pantone', black and white. This allows the logo to breathe, with a flattened design and new distinct custom typeface for the logotype which sits nicely against the custom type they already use.

The use of neon colours in the new branding material used throughout print and digital media is an invigorating change for Nando's as traditionally they would use much more earthly colours and tones. I think this is a response to the increase in younger customers dining at the restaurant and Nando's wanting to tap into this market even further by distancing itself from other high street restaurants like Pizza Express, Frankie & Benny's, and Chiquito's.

The continued use of the font that has been used since Nando's inception is great in my opinion is good because as all the other elements have changed, so the font acts as a grounding point that gives the customers something to relate to.

Pantone 2017

Pantone have launched their Colour of the Year for 2017. Titled Greenery it gives connotations of natural elements and a fresh change from the previous years colours which were much more man made than the natural bright green tone we see for 2017. The Greenery swatch 15-0343 has been used by many years for designers in interior design industry to create warm room sets that blend effortlessly together, I think this is a great example of the timelessness of the colour and a perfect reason for Pantone to have chosen it. Through practise I think Greenery is a good colour choice after the turmoil and unrest of 2016 it is important to usher in calming designs throughout 2017 and Pantone will be at the heart of it through colour choices such as Greenery representing that calm, warming feel.

Chronology

For my final major project, I developed a brand identity for a theme park, called Chronology based in Stoke-on-Trent. Materials produced in association with this concept include tickets and vouchers alongside a range of promotional print such as leaflets and guides. In addition to these developed products I produced a vertical wall poster displaying a general advertisement for the Chronology theme park / attraction. I looked at ways I could reach my target market through the development of a mobile app, and an interface that can link the park real time with the application. I developed concepts for the Exhibition Space including to scale representations of the artwork I would include. I wanted to give the Exhibition Space a theme so I thought of different textures of wallpaper to use and the inclusion of lighting. The logo was crafted from drawing done by hand. I wanted something that looked handwritten and at the same time inco...

Virgin Atlantic Safety Video

This video caught my attention on a recent holiday aboard a Virgin Atlantic flight to Florida, the video is displayed before the flight and aims to deliver the essential safety information through an engaging and unique style. A story plays out throughout the short film, the use of animation engages you into the video and communicates the information to the viewer successfully. The company behind the project, Art & Graft created the initial ideas for the 6 minute film in just under 3 months. Considering throughout the process that the video must be able to stay on trend and current throughout it’s probably long tenure and diverse use throughout the Virgin Atlantic fleet.     https://youtu.be/8XNxZh9_YN0 Storyboard concept for the opening scenes.
