What's new?
Ok it isn't new but I really wanted to comment on how cool these new identities look (below). But this by no means detracts from the originals (left) which I felt also captured the sense of the BBC at the period they were designed. The opportunities for these identities to sit together is going to be rare but together they look exciting, vibrant and modern. The only quarm I have is the smile on the seven, it seems poorly considered when compared to the dynamic typography of 5 and the insightful illustrations of 3 and 4. Radio 1 retains its presence as the dominant station with the black and only a slight typographical change to the number 1 which I feel really draws the set together as a diverse 'there's a station just for you' brand.
This week
My Redbed client came back to me with their decision after the initial concepts were presented last week and decided on the concept below. The design was developed from a sketch by the client and although they loved the initial concepts, felt that the treatment of the sketch with regards colour and typography suited their style. It also draws on the new trends of lower case typography discussed in last weeks post. Please feel free to leave your comments on this design. The shop will open in Nottingham on December 1st.
During this week I have been putting together quotes for a brand and packaging job and have a meeting later today with a prominent design consultancy. They are researching freelancers to add to their books so I am really looking forward to the meeting (a great opportunity to get feedback on my new portfolio).
Thanks for reading.
