Logo Design For Yorkshire Based Oasis Hot Tubs & Spas
Pete and Lisa Summers the Directors of Oasis Hot Tubs & Spas LTD contacted me for creative direction and they required full creative guidance, Their company was scheduled to open on the 30th July 2016 and they had already secured business premises at Onyx Park on manvers way, wath upon dearne and become a dealer with the well established global caldera spas and registered with BISHTA the trade association.
We arranged the initial first meeting to get to know each other and go through ideas, i also learnt a lot about their company and goals for the future. We also outlined the design brief of what it was they required. I was given full creative control throughout. They wanted Logo Design & Branding Identity / Flyer Design / Website Design.
Gathered information from initial meeting:-
- The company was a Hot Tubs and Spas Specialist supplier, dealing in the Caldera range and registered with BISHTA the trade association.
- Once the logo was signed off, a flyer needed to be designed and then once the flyer was complete the website would need to be designed and developed
- The logo must emphasis either Water, Splashes, Drips, Bubbles
- Needed an appealing icon for visual identity of the company.
- The colours the company wanted was a mixture of varied light blues that represents a water feel
- The Logo must work well as a black and white concept.
- The logo must also reflect the nature of the business and creates a professional corporate image but keeping a fun aspect about it.
After the meeting i did some further research into the companies competitors then i went pencil to paper with the sketch book as i do with all my projects to sketch out some ideas, we had a second meeting and the best 4 sketches were selected to be digitised and built in Adobe illustrator, the 6 concepts were then printed off and presented in another meeting, the chosen logo was then selected and finalised with revisions instructed by Peter and Lisa the company owners, once happy the design was signed off.
The Final Logo Design
As part of the design process I explored many different directions, however the design which stood out and became the final selected logo is the design presented.
The design was carefully thought out to maintain a corporate and fun feel appearance, whilst having separate meanings within the design:
- I wanted to represent a water feel within the logo in more than one way and i was able to achieve this.
- For the appealing icon i wanted the icon to represent the “O” in Oasis and incorporate the different shades of blue to create a water whirl feel and the “i” is blowing bubbles out.
