CHOOSING A NAME

Choosing a name for a business is always one of the most important and challenging things that you will have to decide on. Unfortunately, it is only one of the very first elements that I will need to decide on. Once Ive decided on a name, I can then start to develop logoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that work appropriatley with the name. Therefore I have done a brainstorm, with names that I thought would be appropriate for my concept. you will have to make.

LOGO DESIGN 3

IAfter a lot of time and thought, I decided to choose three names that I thought worked really well for my concept. 1. Balance 2. T.W.I.S.T Take Weighty Issues Seriously Today 3. Balance For Life I also felt that in order to make Balance For Life slightly more trendy I could shorten it to Balance4Life. I have developed logoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for all three names, to get an idea of which one looks best and works well.

Logo Concept To the left, I have designed logos for Balance4Life. My idea is to have three seperate logos, which I will incorporate within my packging. I have decided to have B4Hbalance4health-healthy food products, B4M-balance4medium-medium health food products and B4Ubalance4unhealthy-unhealthy food products. I then took a look through my research and I was given advice that no food is unhealthy, it only becomes unhealthy if you eat to much of it. Therefore I changed my categories. Figure 5

LOGO DEVELOPMENT 7

After receiving feedback, I worked on developing my initial logo’s, taking elements from certain logo’s and incorporating them within my other logo’s. Figure 1: Bottom left balAnce logo could try in different typefaces and weights. Figure 2: Works really well. Figure 4: Bottom of B4L logo’s work really well. Incorporate with figure. Figure 5: Solution works, try with p4 logo’s. Try balance4life in solid type. Try B4R in orange.

I developed my initial logos and have decided to use B4L-Balance4Life as my final name choice. I developed my logos by changing the categories to B4R-foods that can be eaten regularly, B4M-foods that can be eaten in moderation and B4O-foods that should be eaten occasionally. These logos will be used on all the packging, in order for consumers to determine what foods should be eaten regularly, in moderation and occasionally. I understand that my concept can be seen as complicated, however I will be designing leaflets and posters in order to market my idea so that consumers are aware of how this concept can help people balance their diets.

BALANCING MEALS Below I have designed brainstorms using my categories and incorporating foods for individual meals, such as breakfast,lunch, dinner, snacks and drinks. From this I will be able to design releavant packaging for the appropriate foods.

FINAL LOGO

I had trouble deciding which colours to choose for my final logo. To the right hand side there are 2 different colour schemes. The designs on the right hand side are the colours that my target audience all mentioned in my questionnaire. On the left, I have changed the turquoise to orange. I want my designs to stand out, look fresh and vibrant. So I wanted to aim towards using flourescent colours. I personally believe that the lime, orange and magenta logoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work really well together and relate to their categories. Therefore these are the colours I have chosen to use for my final logoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

COLOUR PALETTE

Logo Colours The logo letter forms must always match the logo colour. For example regular must always be lime green. Where as B4L is a gradient and therefore balance is green, 4 is orange and life is magenta.

THE LOGO Sizing

Minimum Logo Size

Below is a guide of my logo sizing depending on what it is

The minimum size of the logo was decided to preserve the legibility of Balance4Life.

255mm x 225mm

A4 (297mm x 210mm)

A5 (210mm x 148mm)

35mm x 15mm

Logo Position The preferred position of the logo is always to the left, on any design such as packaging, posters etc. In some cases the logo maybe centralised, for example on business cards or leaflets.

Balance 4Life 155mm x 125mm

Balance 4Life 55mm x 25mm

The logo should never appear less than 10mm from the edge of the page.

Clear Space

Logo Misuse

To allow for the logo to stand out when used alongside other design elements such as text, I have used a minimum amount of clear space, as shown below.

Do not rotate logo

Do not split the graphic and strapline Balance4Life

Do not change the typeface

lan

ife

Do not distort logo Balance4Life

Do not change the colour Balance4Life

Do not place logo in a box or any other kind of shape The logo can be used without the word to explain what each logo represents, as there is always the B4R, B4M and B4O. However in order to avoid confusion this should be avoided until consumers understand my concept.

Do not use inappropriate backgrounds

Balance4Life

TYPOGRAPHY Balance4Life incorporates two fonts. Balance4Life is designed using the typeface Champagne & Limosines. The reason for this typeface is because I belive that it is trendy, modern and fresh. It is very clear to read. I feel that it works really well with my logos. 19

B4L is designed using the typeface Abadi MT Condensed Extra Bold. My choice for this typeface is that it is bold and works really well with Champagnes & Limosines. This typeface is urban and stands out from the crowd, at the same time it is not to over the top.

PACKAGING For my FMP, I will be designing and making a few package designs for certain food products in the three different categories. I have chosen certain food products and recipes that could be apart of a balanced diet. Not only is my idea innovative, I have also included a new range of salads etc that will be packaged. I believe that if there is an interesting new salad available for a lunch meal, that consumers are able to eat regularly, they are more likely to choose that over a bacon, chicken mayo sandwich, which should be consumed occasionally. To the right, is my mood board on trendy, vibrant packaging, that caught my attention.

INSPIRATION I decided to play around with colours incorporating my design using the Keep Calm and Carry on Slogan. Shown to the right. 21

PACKAGE DESIGN In order to create a vibrant, urban and fresh look for my packaging I believe that black allows the colours that I have chosen for each category to stand out. Black is a rich colour and symbolises power, control and authority. 23

Using black will allow my packaging to stand out from the crowd. Black and neon colours is very trendy in the packaging industry and I believe it works well with my concept. In my research I found that black can make a product look elegant and classy. I believe that choosing black with the neon colours for my categories creates a dramatic impression to the consumers and will attract them from a distance.

On the next page I have shown a few designs from the B4L range. I will be developing these designs and creating more designs for other food products. I aim to design at least 3 to 4 package designs for each meal of the day. I will then get these printed to get consumers opinions on the package design. After designing this packaging I came to the conclusion that althought having words all over the packaging is very current and trendy, I felt that the designs where to busy. I then simplified the designs that can be found on the next page.

Making a prototype allowed me to see whether all the information is legible. I also decided that I would show my target audience to see whether they understand my concept. I also will be asking if the packaging has been well designed and what elements work well, or what needs to be changed.

I then designed the net (to the right) for the packaging, using specific measurements in order for me to make the prototype as accurate as possible.

FINAL PACKAGING

FOOD PRODUCTS 39

Whilst my concept is inovative, I also wanted to think about a new menu to help consumers understand that even food that you can eat regularly can be enjoyable. Therefore I came up with a sample menu that would be packaged using my packaging. I divided the food categories into breakfast, lunch, dinner, deserts, snacks and drinks.

CONCLUSION

I originally wanted my design to be vibrant, urban and innovative. I believe that I have achieved this, by gaining research within this market and developing my concept in order for consumers to understand that it is important to maintain a healthy diet. I feel that my logo’s work well with the packaging, and shows a clear and well thought out message to consumers. Overall I am satisfied with my packaging and believe it works well.

“

At first, my concept may seem to be confusing, however with use of marketing I believe that I can portray this idea in a simplfied way. This will enable consumers to understand the idea and realise that this is a fun way to maintain a balanced diet. Just look out for the right packaging! Marketing of my idea is summarised in Vol 3.

“

After many attempts to finalise my logo, I believe that the chosen logo’s, colours and straplines are appropriate and work well with my concept.

My design is vibrant, urban and innovative.
