Problem Statement

The Red Lion, a pub located in the Northamptonshire countryside of the United Kingdom, required a modernized logo to stand out in a sea of over 300 other Red Lion pubs. As the pub prides itself on its food and extensive drink list, I based the new logo on the three main glasses used within the pub. The final design became a simple yet effective representation of a glass with a lion’s mane, embodying the pub’s unique identity.

The challenge in this project was creating a logo that was not only recognizable and memorable, but also functional and unique. The new design had to appeal to the target audience of families and individuals of all ages within Denton, UK. Through the process, I developed a keen sense of how to create a brand identity that aligns with a business’s values and unique selling points. The project allowed me to apply my skills in creating abstract, simple, and clean designs that are still highly effective and memorable.

Summary

The Red Lion project presented a unique challenge as it was located in a region with over 300 pubs of the same name. The task was to create a modern, memorable logo that stood out against the competition. My approach was to create a design that reflected the pub’s emphasis on food and drink by incorporating the three main glasses used in the establishment into the final design.

The result was a simple, abstract, and clean logo that effectively captured the essence of the Red Lion’s brand. The project equipped me with valuable skills in creating memorable and functional logos that effectively communicate a brand’s values and goals.

As a designer, I am committed to providing unique solutions that stand out in a crowded market. I understand the importance of creating designs that are not only visually appealing but also functional and memorable. My experience with the Red Lion project showcases my ability to deliver successful results even in challenging situations.

If you’re looking for a designer who can provide creative solutions to your branding needs, I am confident that my skills and experience can meet your requirements.
