It all started with an idea...

A short, interactive guide helped them discover their design style and clearly captured what they needed.

Needs

We are a young startup and need a representable corporate design, which we can utilize in presentations:

Therefore we need a logo (emblem), a a graphically visualized slogan, a sound general color concept and a simple Powerpoint Master-Slide. In the following we'll elaborate on all requirements:

1)
The Logo: The logo should center around the exotic bird Toucan. This Toucan should be linked to a cloud of smoke and/or refer to fruits. Summing up, the main ingredients of the logo are: Toucan, Cloud of Smoke and Fruits.

The Toucan must not necessarily be presented in a lifelike manner; coloring can deviate, however, it should fit into the overall developed color concept.

The Toucan should be "simple" (in a positive way) and should make a hip impression. He certainly shouldn't be too "detailed" or "comic-like".

The logo should include the startup's name "Toucan Lounge" (spelling can deviate, for example, capitalization can be changed).

2)
Slogan: The slogan "exotic sensation of taste" (small letters, without quotation marks) should be presented in a way that soundly fits into the overall concept. For example, the slogan should fit under the logo.

3)
Overall Color Concept: We generally look for a simple (in a positive way) color concept for our startup, which can be associated with attributes as exotic, tropical, colorful, healthy, light, nature, jungle, etc.

The color concept should be in harmony with the logo, however, it doesn't have to have the same coloring.

4)
Master-Slide Concept: We are looking for a Powerpoint master, which picks up the overall color concept and embeds the logo and the slogan. This Powerpoint master should cover the same scope as usual Powerpoint masters. However, especially a master for the title-slide of the entire presentation, a title-slide for subparts of the presentation, a table-of-content-slide, a listing-slide and a normal content-slide should be included.

In the context of creating the slide master a corporate font must be designed/defined, which fits into the overall design concept.

Company description

The Startup Toucan Lounge offers the consumption of exotic "smokeables", which create a fruity sensation of taste in a laid-back and exotic atmosphere. The Toucan Lounge delivers harmless, fresh and fruity enjoyment!

Target group

The Toucan Lounge aims at energetic city-type persons who like to experience new things and whose curiosity is piqued by design.

Colors, favourites and other requirements

Generally we expect a design which is modern, hip and colorful and addresses the brand values of the Toucan Lounge (exotic, fruity, color, modern). It should appeal friendly and inviting and should not be too detailed.

What we have not in mind: ...is a dark design which is showy or snobbish and comes across as cheap or dubious.

A general remark: If you feel that our design ideas should go into another direction than pointed out by us, feel free to be creative and surprise us with your point of view. If you think it makes sense to deviate from our expectation we generally don't mind and look forward to your suggestions.

Hello, thanks for the design!

However, we still see plenty room for improvement.

Here are some suggestions concerning your design, which will point out the direction in which we want to go:

1) The name is "toulou" (small letters) and not "TouLou".
2) Generally, a tropical and exotic impression should be generated via the logo.
3) The Toucan should be more colorful. Also, the color concept itself should be more consistent and harmonious.
4) The Toucan and the cloud of smoke do not seem to interact well. They should be embedded well, respectively should work together well.
5) The toucan mustn't look like an actual, real-life toucan. It should be presented in a modern and "simplified" way. The toucan‘s black is too dark and doesn‘t fit the brand‘s overall idea.
6) Try to bring more focus to the logo, so that the logo looks more centralized and not too wide.

If you have other idead in addition, feel free to implement them.

Thanks again,

Toucan Lounge Team.
