Creative Process
1. Research: I explored Northbase’s core values, market positioning, competitors, and target audience to fully understand the brand’s DNA and long-term vision.
2. Concept Development: Based on the research, I sketched multiple logo and identity directions that balanced modern minimalism with a sense of durability and trust.
3. Digital Design: Selected concepts were developed in Adobe Illustrator, focusing on precision, scalability, and versatility across applications.
4. Refinement: The chosen design was refined through feedback rounds, fine-tuning proportions, typography, and visual balance for maximum impact.
5. Finalization: Delivered a complete brand package — logo files in multiple formats, brand guidelines, and mockups to ensure seamless implementation across digital and print.

The new identity gave Northbase a confident, premium presence in the outdoor and performance market. The design reinforced brand recognition, elevated its appeal to the target audience, and provided a consistent visual framework for all brand touchpoints.
