Landscape + Influence: Branding

Developing a logo and identity for an upcoming Thomas Hardy exhibition for client Wessex Museums. In collaboration with Cassandra Thurlow, Gabe Roberts and Kelly Man.

Defining the Aim

post-it note ideas

"An exhibition that peels back the layers of Hardy, exploring his relationship with the landscape.”

Experimentation

series of sketches using landscapes

Based on the aim, I made some visual experiments using Dorset landscapes that Hardy wrote about. These developed into graphical marks in and of themselves, representing Hardy's intertwining with the Dorset landscapes.

Developing a visual style

Using the visual language I was exploring, Kelly developed these collages.

Creating a logo

logo and font tests
Testing fonts with the logo

I explored a variety of fonts in combination with the logo. As a group, we chose to use a bold sans-serif, combined with the decorative serif, resembling ink handwriting.
