Insight
Each young person using the client’s innovative online platform is offered career opportunities tailored for them. And vice versa, each employer’s talent requirements is matched with the right young people for their role. This platform is a place to find outstanding talent from the vast number of young people entering the world of work.

Brand idea
From our insight, we drew from the idea of a pick and mix sweetshop.
We crafted the B for Believe into a variable brand mark, and created a pattern of Bs that could be used across brand touchpoints…

Logotype
Typography
Colour palette
Sweet textures
A library of sweets textures was developed that could be used across brand touchpoints.
Iconography & infographics
Based on the above sweet textures, a suite of iconography and infographics were developed for the online platform.
Imagery style
Where imagery was required, we sourced photography of young people in a warm, relaxed and reportage style to complement the bold, graphic identity.
User interface / experience / journey design (UI/UX)
The client provided us with an undesigned wireframe / prototype of the planned UI / UX for their online platform. We designed all required screens – delivering a library of assets for the entire UI / UX to be programmed by another agency.
Other brand touchpoints
Brand guidelines
A comprehensive set of brand guidelines were explored, developed and delivered with a library of assets for the client to take the brand and platform forward.
