Defining The Brand

DIRECTION NEEDED

Addressing a community spread across different platforms, required to clarify the whole brand communication.

The best way to help my client work through this problem was to run a series of exercises able to help Peak Collective understand how their brand should look, speak, and behave.

ACCESS & PRIORITIZE

Working closely with the client, I analyzed all the most critical aspects influencing their brand using keywords to describe values, strengths, and differentiators. 

The goal was to set the whole brand creative tone, helping to deliver unique storytelling consistently on all the channels and platforms they will be using in the future.

PROFILING THE USERS

Representing the customers is useful to address and reformulate any future decision towards a target audience that will be interacting with the brand. There are many techniques out there to do so. I profiled Peak Collective’s dream customers using keywords and insights gathered during the discovery session as a guideline.

POSITIONING STATEMENT

Peak Collective plans and organize outdoor experiences for adventure enthusiasts in a challenging environment using an inspiring and motivating voice. Educating people to develop a deep connection with nature, they help customers to feel more confident and be empowered.

Design Process

HAND-DRAWN LOGO

Ordinarily, a logo should only help to identify a company and should never represent the services or activities it is pursuing, but there are cases where the look is as essential as the recognizability. 

Hand-drawn designs often have the ability to bring more personality to the look and feel of a brand, which suits some companies better than others.

MONOLINE STYLE

The monoline style presents a clean aesthetic with a hint of handmade. Furthermore, it can be perceived both as minimal and rustic at the same time. Memorable yet straightforward, it’s a great tool to represent the look and feel described by the client during the brand attributes exercise, making the perfect choice for a long-lasting logo.

Consistency

Consistency

Being consistent with brand communication is crucial to the growth and success of a brand. Simply put, it’s a way to align any future use of your brand assets to a set of rules called “Brand Guidelines”. This manual includes visual elements: logo, patterns, colors, typefaces, and photography. And also, personality elements: culture, brand values, tone of voice, slogans, and content messaging.

Peak Collective asked me to have a brand identity ready to deliver their brand communication across a broad range of platforms, both print and digital.

COLOR CHOICES

In color psychology yellow is used to evoke feelings of positivity and optimism, while a darker shade of gray is often used to convey a sense of timelessness, and balance.
