Brand Identity for The Clifford Pier Singapore
It's booked! We will be heading down to Singapore for our yearly vacation, nothing cooler than exploring designers, artists, and photographers based in this beautiful country. Let's take a look at the work of Foreign Policy and their Brand Identity for The Clifford Pier. I took this particular project because the design truly reflects the colours from Singapore after watching so many travel videos on the subject. As they quote: "Collaterals with color palette in sea-foam, coral and Caspian blue; classic postage stamps accented with tropical flora and fauna". Sharing an entity with its heritage, The Clifford Pier draws from its legacy as a bustling port in Singapore during the 1930s. Ginger flower motifs pay homage to William Farquhar who was fascinated with local botany during his time on the island. Collaterals with color palette in sea-foam, coral and caspian blue; classic postage stamps accented with tropical flora and fauna, along with architectural elements, are reminiscent of the glorious voyages that set sail from this historical landmark.

Super Elegant Business Card Designs Printed by MOO
You probably have noticed that we are fans of minimalist brand identity and design work. We believe in the saying "if I had more time I would have written a shorter letter" applies really well to design. Not only design but pretty much everything could be summarized to its core. Business cards have been a major tool for networking and still play a huge role. It's also awesome to see how designers translate the brand into such a small format and yet transmit the same message. For this post I would like to share some awesome business cards and brand identity composition examples designed by MOO customers and printed by MOO. I have been a fan and a client of MOO, have printed all my wedding material with them. It's awesome to see how much they have grown, and the quality of the print material they deliver is second to none. Here are some examples of how MOO customers have utilized their printing services. We love great design and believe it can work wonders for every business. That’s why we make it simple to create beautiful, expertly crafted business stationery and promotional materials that’ll help you start conversations, open doors and strengthen relationships. - MOO Brand Identity and Business Card Designs A post shared by moo.com (@moo) on Oct 18, 2017 at 1:04am PDT A post shared by moo.com (@moo) on Nov 21, 2017 at 1:22am PST A post shared by moo.com (@moo) on Dec 12, 2017 at 1:02am PST A post shared by moo.com (@moo) on Jan 23, 2018 at 1:09am PST A post shared by moo.com (@moo) on Feb 27, 2018 at 1:06am PST A post shared by moo.com (@moo) on Feb 7, 2018 at 1:10am PST A post shared by moo.com (@moo) on Feb 6, 2018 at 1:02am PST A post shared by LAUREN ELFORD (@lauren_elford) on Apr 25, 2018 at 12:33pm PDT A post shared by Dana Kun (@chez_boheme) on Apr 13, 2018 at 12:51am PDT A post shared by Triin Maripuu (@triinmaripuu_) on Apr 18, 2018 at 2:57am PDT A post shared by Michelle Knight (@michelle.k.knight) on Apr 17, 2018 at 6:22pm PDT

Minimalist Brand Identity Created from Golden Ratio
Yaiza Liébana. The brand identity for this psychiatric clinic relays on the layout created from golden ratio, which evokes classical aesthetic perfection and visual calm. This, altogether with the color palette, helps to generate a comfortable homelike feeling. The work was created and shared by Carles Rodrigo, a designer and photographer based in Valencia, Spain. There's a lot to love about this project. For me just the simplicity and raw look aligned with beautiful typography selection makes it a winner. It's hard to design something nice and well balanced without much to play with. That's what makes these types of project look easy to create but when you try you will see how hard it is. Personally, when I try to do something like that I always feel that it's not complete. There's something missing. I wonder if Carles feels the same when doing this one.

Visual Identity and Graphic Design for Kodak
We are taking a look at this very cool visual identity project for Kodak, a place for music. Designed by Estudio Albino and Roberto De Leon who are both from Guadalajara, Mexico. What I love about this project is first of all the tone they used on the use of the logos across the branding, you totally understand the movement generated by music through the distortion. It's a beautiful understatement and surely is creative on all ends. Enjoy! Kodak is a place of electronic music. The visual identity seeks to reflect the movement generated by music through the distortion of sound and the stimulation of the senses.

Brand Identity for Stockholm 2026 Olympic Games
Hannah Decker published a super cool brand identity project on her Behance profile. It's actually not a new post, it's from last year, but for some algorithmic related reasons I just learned about it yesterday. It's better now than ever, and that's because it's awesome. The project is a concept, I believe, for the Stockholm Sweden 2026 Olympic Games and it's the full brand identity. The best part for me is that it has a more minimal and simple visual language. Most of the Olympic games identities are full of colors, gradients or organic shapes, this one feels more aligned with the Swedish style. Check out the full project below and also make sure to check out Hannah Decker portfolio at https://www.behance.net/hannahdecker Brand Identity

Well it's the privilege given from the team at Adobe when DBLG London when they took on the task to build a physical installation for Adobe's Digital Marketing conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Minimal Brand Identity & Packaging: LESS Cosmetics
We are taking a look at a minimal brand identity & packaging design for LESS Cosmetics by Patrick Reichert-Young. He is a creative director from Köln, Germany, we are featuring his project because of most of its minimal approach. We know how beauty & cosmetics products tend to be heavy in imagery, especially on the branding. Here we have a combination of fonts, lines, and two colours. Simple as that but the beauty comes from the overall design and how everything just flows with simplicity.

Brand Identity for Loupedeck by BOND Creative Agency
There's something about brand identity projects that have a dark theme. I know that it might be personal preference but black business cards or stationary definitely adds an elegant/upscale look. The Loupedeck work done by BOND Creative Agency is a great example of that. Loupedeck is a photo editing console for Adobe Lightroom. Bond created the identity and website for the start-up to help build their business. Bond’s agile and efficient process for identity and web creation allowed Loupedeck to quickly launch their product to the market. The public website features e.g. a blog, video tutorials and a support page, ensuring that visitors get all the information they need about the product. The webshop was built as a custom reusable WordPress plugin that’s based on React, Redux & Shopify SDK. This solution makes it possible to turn any WordPress page into a lightweight Shopify Store with a few clicks. Check out the website: loupedeck.com Photography: Kaapo Kamu Brand Identity
Behind the Art Direction & Brand Identity of Blade Runner 2049
Seriously bummed that the movie Blade Runner 2049 didn't perform well as expected. With a settlement of a high score from most well-known movie blogs and critics out there but still wasn't enough. On the other hand, I was always intrigued by the team who collaborated on the art direction & whole brand identity; behind such a great movie and at this scale as well. We are taking a look at Stanley Sun and his team over at Concept Arts Studios. Stanley Sun is working at Concept Arts Studios as their Senior Art Director. You should definitely check out his Behance for more movie projects like Dunkirk, Kong: Skull Island and more. Over the past 16 months we designed the movie logo, directed photoshoot concepts, and spent countless hours in Photoshop creating keyarts for marketing. Ranging from print materials like magazines and movie posters to digital/social sharable contents like Penn Station motion wall takeover and Snapchat. Hope you like it!

Elegant Brand Identity for the Fashion Brand SOIA
Nere Oria is a graphic designer from Deba, Spain with a very strong portfolio in visual and brand identity. I was quite surprise to see the projects she shared on her Behance profile. There's not a lot of information about them but the images speak for themselves. For the SOIA project I love how Nere explored a simple color and make the whole system work fine with it. I also have to say that the business card sometimes looks almost impossible to read. That aside, the minimal look and the elegance work quite well for a handmade fashion company. Check out after the break the SOIA brand identity project including collaterals and other unique and beautiful applications.

Brand Identity: New York Women's Surf Film Festival
Honoured to be sharing this brand identity project for the New York Women's Surf Film Festival. Into their 5th annual festival, their goal is to celebrate the filmmakers and female wave riders who live to surf, highlight their sense of adventure, connection to the ocean and more. Designed by Shanti Sparrow, it was greatly inspired by the movie by its aesthetics, also we can witness the work from Sarah Lee that we've featured in the past on ABDZ for her underwater photography. Get inspired! Shanti Sparrow is an Australian-based designer, illustrator and dreamer living and creating in New York, USA. Love the fact that Shanti would work on projects for not-for-profit clients that create awareness and raise funds for important humanitarian, environmental and research-based causes. The branding design for the 5th annual film festival was influenced by iconic retro surf culture and the nuanced aesthetics of contemporary film.

Kati Forner Design's Beautifully Minimal Branding for H.Smith
We're starting the week off with some beautiful blush-toned branding work from Kati Forner Design, a full service creative studio based in sunny Los Angeles. Kati was tasked with a comprehensive brand identity for H.Smith, a luxury, fashion-forward boutique with a discerning clientele. The sophisticated, feminine and perfectly minimal work is comprised of textural papers, hand painted patterns, gold foils and blind embosses creating an elevated brand voice. We are particularly smitten with the soft color palette lending just the right elegance to the overall look and feel.
Illustration & Brand Identity: Brand Refresh for Mutual Attraction
About a week ago, we've featured the latest work from Radim Malinic with the branding project for Inhere. This week, he is back again but with a project in collaboration with Bristol-based Craig Minchington. It's a refresh that involves brand identity and illustration for Mutual Attraction. A dating agency and matchmaking service that needed some love to share their expertise for everyone in the name of love. Radim and Craig both have similar skills but for this project, Radim was in charge of the creative direction & design. And Craig was behind the 3D modelling, I am digging the overall project especially where you can clearly see the style from both designers. Collaboration work between Radim Malinic, a freelance creative director, graphic designer and speaker from London and with Craig Minchington who is also in the same field but based in Bristol, UK. They have worked together on several projects including the Harnham Salary Guide (2016) featured on ABDZ. Mutual Attraction is a London dating agency and matchmaking service. Mutual Attraction is all about meeting people face to face, in the flesh and stepping away from the screen. Dating in the real world, with real people, looking for real love. Refreshingly simple yet effective.
