Global Proofreading & Copy-Editing

On Wednesday we were handed the Creative Brief for Global Proofreading & Copy-Editing – a new logo and branding to go with their new website launch.

A Proofreading company isn’t the easiest starting point for original logo design, especially considering the client wanted a ‘fun and quirky feel’ to the design. But here’s how the design process begun…

Which then got refined into this…

And finally a bit of text…

Four main ideas:

  • Spinning globe (stripes used to signify its spinning) with a man to give it a bit of personality
  • Albatross (because they fly around the globe – global travelers? There’s a link there…)
  • Corporate looking Globe. A bit dull, but a safer option.

Feedback from Mark (the UE Senior Designer) was that the Albatross was the strongest symbolically, but the link between it and the globe needed to be clearer.

A bit of colour exploration….

And we have a final brand…
