Synthesis/Rationale

Rationale

The brief submitted in relation to the written element offers and example of successful brand. The Cari+Carl rebrand has been chosen to demonstrate the research taken. The owner of the brand is interested in the structural form; the plus sign between then name cari+carl has been made up of shapes to represent this interest.

The existing company is a bespoke knitwear brand. The knitted accessories are crafted from enticingly tactile and intriguingly structural fabrics using luxurious materials. A rebrand has been put in place due to the previous logo and branding not demonstrating a high end feel to the consumer.

‘It is about creating an entity in the consumers mind so that they can see it. They can see a representation but behind this representation what they actually have is a whole series of images beliefs and actions. Effective branding is the means by which a brand can stay in a market longer and more profitably because its been created properly.’ Michael Hockney, Chief Executive D&AD

The rebrand features collateral such as: packaging box, tissue paper, stickers, clothing tags, personalised notes + invoices. To showcase some existing high end images of the scarfs a look book had also been produced. The colour scheme used has been expanded from monochrome to white black and grey. This minimal scheme works well with the simplistic logo and design and compliments the over all character of the brand giving it a contemporary feel.
