Case Study
That vision is ‘lood’, a product design studio based in the humble suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. I was responsible for the visual identity, as well as the design of the website and many other creative outcomes ranging from printed media to signage and social assets.
I learned as much as I could about his inspirations, and then began by reseaching what makes lood unique, as well as it’s constructive and industrial influence.
I looked to the simplicity and structure of tech drawings as a source of inspiration, and utilised elements of assembly in the final branding by creating ‘Philip’, a star symbol reminiscent of a philips head screw.
This was a callback to the constructive and creative nature of David’s process, with a love of crafting things with an understated strength and courage.
Our original designs for the website included sections of storytelling before an object was available for puchase, and this was done to inform the customer of the work and value that went into a single product.
The storytelling would include work in progress videos, sketches, mockups, prototypes from a variety of media (image, video and illustration).
lood was one of the greatest opportunities for me as a young designer, as it gave me autonomy from early in my career to lead a brand vision, and establish an aesthetic that not only spans branding but the products themselves and how they’re presented.
