A brand new development of apartments and a hotel in Egypt, next to the Red Sea, needed a logo design that could be used across their website, brochure and on signage for the development. A bold design that would work across multiple media types and at different scales was required, the themes of water and luxury were to be key to the logo design.

Aqueous Development Logo designed by Create Design Studio

This is the final logo design, it should look great as a huge development sign as well as printed at business card size.

The Bulletin from Create Design StudioRebranded for success

Back in 2009 Create Design Studio was born, previously we were I to Eye. If you are thinking of rebranding your business we have provided some tips below, drawn from our own experience.

Why you may want to rebrand your company
• Your company image looks tired or out of date
• Your image does not refl ect what you do anymore
• The sector in which you work in has changed
• Your company pursues different work to that which it did in the past
• You wish to change the direction of the business and have decided to break with the old image.

What is the right name for your business?
Often business names are based on the name of the person or people who started the company or a spin on what the company does or produces. It is helpful to name your company so that when it is mentioned to someone who has never come across you before they can make an accurate guess at your area of business just from your name. This can also help you online with search engine optimisation.

What will need to be redesigned?

Here is a checklist of things that your organisation may need re-designed if you rebrand it:

Business cards
Business Stationery, branded Folders, Notepads and Pens
Website
Blog
E-newsletter
Brochure
Flyers
Adverts
Clothing
Company Signage
Exhibition banner and Name Badges
Vehicle graphics

Rebranding can help to refocus what your business does and gives you an opportunity for a fresh start on your marketing and promotion. It can help you to move into areas of business that you haven’t tackled before or leave behind an outdated service you no longer provide.
