Project Brief -
Create a brand identity for a fictitious 826 store inspired by a U.S. city. In this case, Louisville, KY.
Deliverables -
Develop a stationary system, an assortment of products, mobile/desktop applications, motion, an employee ID, a storefront, and social media content.
Challenges/Opportunities -
Designing through the lens of my store’s main character, The Mad Hatter, and sharpening my eye when it came to primary identifiers and name lockups.
Takeaways -
I learned about brand systems and the importance of being intentional with my design choices. Each design element must be thoughtful and connect back to the store’s overarching theme.
