Process

The process among other things consisted of mind maps, inspirations, sketches, colors, fonts and illustrations. The values were playful, organic and simple and they were involved in shaping the logo and identity. The reason I chose to include figures was to have something that could present the ugly vegetables. At the same time, it was to understand the concept better, but also to make the identity more playful.

Result

The result was an identity that is playful, organic and simple. The identity includes playful and organic figures which presents the ugly vegetables. The logo issimple and clean, and consists of typography with an integrated symbol that makes it unique. At the same time, the logo, the figures and possibly other elements consist of a specific element which is leaves. The leaves can be called that 5. element which is an element that is often repeated in the identity. This makes it even easier to recognize the identity.
