The Salcon Group commissioned me to carry out a comprehensive brand redesign to unify its visual identity and that of its three brands: Edit, Wood for Trees, and Join the Dots. My task was to create brand guidelines and assets, along with designs for a full website reskin of all existing sites. The objective was to establish a cohesive and recognisable brand presence across all touchpoints, ensuring consistency and preparing for future business growth.
A brand discovery workshop was held at Edits' offices.This in-person session enabling senior leadership to delve deep into the brand's values, vision, and unique selling points. Following this workshop, further online sessions were conducted to build on the insights gained and ensure continuity. These virtual workshops allowed for participation of the wider team ensuring that all aspects of the brand's development were thoroughly explored and refined, leading to a cohesive and robust brand strategy on which to base the rebrand.

I developed a brand identity centred on the concept of 1s and 0s, inspired by the notion that data serves as the golden thread linking all brands within the company. To unify the brand logos, I took the initial letter of each brand's name and stylised it in a combination of 1s and 0s. This straightforward approach ensures scalability, allowing for seamless integration should the business acquire additional brands in the future.
Each brand is represented by a unique, fostering a sense of unity while allowing individual brands to shine. Patterns for the brands were created by repeating logos, infused with their signature colour.
I provided Salocin with a comprehensive 50-page brand guidelines document designed to ensure consistency and coherence across their new brand. This resource offers detailed instructions on logos, color palettes, typography, imagery, grids, iconography, and tone of voice. Additionally, I delivered Figma designs that showcase the reskin of their current sites, reflecting the new brand identity.
