DEVELOPMENT The logo was created around the theme of negative space. This was relevant to the concept of ‘the big idea’, which had been requested from DBA. The design focused on drawing attention to looking up. This focused on the theme of positivity and drawing attention to ‘The North’. The icon was developed first, with the rest of the design to follow.

After carrying out research in to the most effective colours from a selection of teal, yellow, purple or hot pink, the verdict was to go with something in between - maroon. Maroon was the final colour choice due to its hearty feel, but also its connection to nature.

THE BRIEF Four posters were created - one for each of the cities on the HS3 route. They intend to inspire and engage people to look further into the project through the use of bold photography and a largescale inclusion of the Capital North logo. Each of the posters contains a quote from either a current resident of these cities, or someones who was born there.

POSTERS IN CONTEXT The posters will be placed in urban environments - both in the Northern cities involved, but more importantly; in the South. The main encouragement is aimed towards London so these posters would be seen predominantly around that city.
