Have a floral one

Sofleur

So Fleur is a chic and elegant space set in the heart of the capital of a golden Kingdom that embraces change and a vivacity never seen before. It morphs into a bakery, a tea salon, a flower shop, a business hub, an art gallery, or a corner where one wishes to lose one’s self behind a good book or a friend's warm company.
SoFleur team approached us to develop the brand character, storytelling, and expression. Also, they needed us to look into the brand's existing guidelines, assess the brand from a visual perspective, and develop a solid brand system, all along with the packaging, the menu, and the brand expression. Furthermore, our team collaborated with SoFleur interior designer in delivering the brand experience at the space itself.

Brand assessment

SoFleur team never wanted to rebrand, they asked us to assess the brand's visual identity and propose slight enhancements if needed. After observing the current identity, we found that the gold leaf image has a low definition quality, making the logo size increment impossible; the existing logo had many shadows and effects, which makes it complicated to apply on different backgrounds, and in different mediums, especially digital applications. On the other hand, we thought of unifying the tones of the Gold Pantone color and the Gold leaf. We also wanted the gold, black, and white to become more harmonious and have a natural feel!

The pattern usage wasn't defined as well, so many patterns with different styles which made it difficult for the brand to look consistent.

After eliminating the visual effects from the logo, refining the design, defining a flat version, and adding another version with a better gold texture, we create various variations of SoFleur logo that can work on any background and in any size.

Pattern usage

After we defined the brand's only pattern that can be utilized differently depending on the medium we're using (corporate, communication, packaging, interior..).

We also proposed a new photograpy style that showcases SoFleur’s brand character‭ where ‬subjects should be pictured in lively moments full of energy‭, ‬conveying a positive impact‭, ‬smiling, and connecting to the surrounding environment‭.‬
