Nestle Nesquik

Nestle recently rebranded their Nesquik product to include new smooth type and a refreshed approach to their Nesquik bunny.













The new logo is a refinement of the previous logo, it uses less shape forms and looses the blurry outline effect seen in the previous iteration of the logo. The new logo is a lot smoother, featuring a type style that is loosely scripted tying the lettering together quite nicely, alongside a new gradient effect which in my opinion could of been refined a little better since the colour change from dark to light blue looks a little amateur in contrast to other gradient style logotypes I have seen.
















The new bunny in my opinion looks stunning, the ultra realistic approach they were going for pays off well here, and make the new bunny much more friendly looking than his former appearance which when compared to the new version looks odd without his clothes and backpack. The style is clearly representative of their target market, school children with the appeal of the product brightened through the strengthened colour of blue that contrasts nicely with the yellow that has been retained from the previous styling but is now implemented on the bunny's clothing too.

Overall I think the rebrand was a success however I feel more attention could have been paid to the swatches used in the gradient for the logotype as this isn't quite as successful as the rest of the material produced to represent Nesquik.

Rhyno

I recently created a new visual identity for my own design work, Rhyno follows on from the logo I launched with the name just over a year ago, assigned a study project to craft an identity to sell my skills through I settled on Rhyno. I've been happy with the name and the soft, darkened tone of purple ever since yet the logotype never appealed to me all that much, seen below it shows how I edited the type and incorporated a tusk into the bowl of the R. Using Gotham as my typeface, I felt it represented a modern clean style, and the tusk in the letter R was a nice quirky way of tying the logotype back to the name. The new logo came about after I started to develop my website, needing a favicon icon for my site, the existing logo simply wouldn't be visible at the typical 16 x 16 favicon size. Therefore I began to come up with ideas for an icon of my own, again incorporating a visual representation of a Rhino to tie in with the Rhyno name. Seen below is the new l...

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...

Emirates AIR LINE

Whilst in London I took the opportunity to ride the Emirates Air Line, constructed for the London 2012 Olympics the cable car system consists of a station from the O2 Peninsula to the Royal Victoria Dock. What immediately struck me from this is the way the Emirates brand is incorporated into the branding for Transport for London. The 'Air Line' section of the logo is contained within the typical TfL roundel image, used throughout the entire transport network be it the Underground, Buses or DLR. I liked how the branding and colour ways for Emirates are present throughout but not overpowering the TfL branding. I think this is important because customers of the TfL network will want to connect with consistent typography, symbols and motifs whilst using different colour allows the network to differentiate it's formats of travel and route whilst retaining the same shape and type. A signage system followed throughout the TfL network sees simple and...
