Study Brief 01 - Critique: Re-branding Krispy Kreme logo Feedback

In todays critique, we got put into groups to analysis each one chosen brand to redesign. This critique was here to help to get some advice from my peers on our logos, they were their to help out our difficulty we may of had when producing our redesigned logo.

 For my redesign logo it was 'Krispy Kreme, Doughnuts', here are the questions that I asked my peers to help me create my final logo and this included their answers to my problems that I struggled with.

 Question for Krispy Kreme, Doughnut

 Do you think its relevant to keep the bowtie shape or could you suggest another shape that I could use to represent the shop?

 I had a mix opinion about this change, as some of my peers said yes as it stays with the original trademark, whilst some agree to change it to a doughnut shape.

 Could you suggest other colours that I could change on the logo, as it looks quite retro?

 Overall, the peers in my group said that I should keep the colours the same as the current logo. The colour, Red and Green are recognisable and distinctive. One of my peers highlighted that the green dots on the Krispy Kreme packaging is one of the most recognisable trademark of the brand, so I might have to experiment with this.

 With the typography should I keep with the Serif and Sans-Serif combination or only stick with one front style? 

 My peers advised me to keep with the combination of Sans-Serifs and Serifs together. They said it would look better as the current one has the same. Some peers suggested that I could extent the logo of the typography slightly to keep it balance.

 Here are some of my work that I presented them with:


The bottom images demonstrate me recreating my design for my logo that I did, following from my peers advice that I tried to follow.

OUGD603 | Extended Practice | Brief 03 | Development - Publication Layout design - Leah | BBC (Our Generation) - Life being British Born Chinese

Publication Layout - Leah For the inside of the 'Our Generation' publication, the collaborator Leah was in charge of this  brief's outcome segment. The publication's layout was constructed with 'Adobe Indesign' Leah made guide lines and measurements to help assist where the Photographs and the text should be placed. Illustrations of a paint brush stroke was experimented to give the pages more characteristics. We mutually agreed to make the size of the publication A5 format, and the number of pages are 16. Previously it was going to be 17, however one participant was unable to provided us with their childhood photo for us. Due to this situation Leah had to be more selective with the photos and information (Quotes) that we believe was significant for outlining our briefs context.  Below are some images of this layout format: Participant page order by names: Katie Sung  Leah Chen  Jackie Wan Tracey Lau Eliza Mo Kylie Lee Lewis Capper...

Jan Tschichold - Grids

Feedback from Tutor of Publication After  receiving  feedback from my tutor, he informed me to use grids within arranging my layout of my publication pages. This will keep my images and text in a consistent manner, thus making it visually professional. To achieve this precise layout, I will research on Jan Tschichold Grid System.
