Hope everyone’s having a wonderful Christmas! 🎄🥰

Do you have a list of Christmas films you try to watch every year before the big day? We definitely do, but we ran out of time this year and didn’t manage to get through them all! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏽‍♂️ Unfortunately, we didn’t get around to watching Elf, A Christmas Story, or Die Hard (although we’re still debating whether Die Hard even counts as a Christmas movie!)🤔😂

This month’s colour palettes are inspired by some classic Christmas films! Can you guess which ones they’re from? Drop your guesses in the comments below! …

✨ Princess and Pickles: A Brand Built on Nostalgia and Joy 🌈

We loved working on the branding for Princess and Pickles! 👸🏼🐶💖 The client spec included: mood board, colour palette, brand guide, logo design, graphics for socials and illustrated characters.

Princess and Pickles is a whimsical brand that brings back the magic of childhood. With its roots in nostalgia, it evokes warm memories of carefree days, imaginative adventures, and the joy of little treasures.

Whether it’s through playful designs, charming storytelling, or products inspired by youthful creativity, Princess and Pickles celebrates the essence of being young at heart. This brand bridges past and present, creating a sense of comfort and wonder for customers who cherish their inner child.

🌟 Feel the magic. Relive the memories.

Apologies for being a bit quiet on here recently but it was my turn to go on my hols! 🧳😎☀️

Always good to stop, pause, recharge the batteries and reflect on how far you’ve come. Today I’ve revisited one of our first projects we worked on for a client; Be Locals - bringing local food to local people. We loved working on this client’s business branding. 🥕🌽🍅

Here’s the mood board we came up with at the beginning of the branding design process using earthy tones as our colour palette inspo …

A mood board with a difference! We love it when a client’s request really pushes our imaginations.🤗 Our latest client spec included some real contrasting styles so we had to get our thinking caps on! 🤔🧢

👉Eerie 🧟‍♂️ but magical 🦄
👉Black 🖤 but also illuminous brights 💚
👉Dark 💀 but fun 🙃
👉Illuminati 🔺vs Tim Burton 🕷️ vs outer space 👽

We came up with a quirky mood board which combines a variety of icons, imagery and a neon/dark colour palette which encompasses the style that we pictured for our client. 🤩

Keep you eyes peeled for the big reveal next week! 👁️

One of our lovely clients reached out to us recently asking if we could help them with their branding, typography and colour palette for an exciting new side venture they were working on.

A blog called Funusual Travel - which was all about fun and unusual travel! Their first destination was Japan. 🇯🇵

We put together some mood boards based on the conversations we had with our client particularly around the type of design styles they liked. It’s always good to have these conversations in the first instance so you know what to include and omit from the design process. 🤔🤗🎨👨🏻‍💻

In terms of iconography we both thought it would be nice to include either a plane ✈️ or a location 📍icon of some sort. We knew exactly the colour palette we had in mind for Funusual Travel from the offset and we were excited to showcase them.

Here’s the mood boards we came up with - we loved the colours so much we had to showcase all 4 options! 🤩🤣

It’s the 1st of May and we can’t quite believe we’re nearly half-way through the year already! 😅

May is one of our favourite months and it’s the time of year when everything is coming into full bloom. 🌸

We love a colour palette at bunny + bear and draw inspiration from our surroundings. There’s so many colours to explore just by looking around you.

What better way to spend the UK’s National Walking Month by getting out there and getting some colour inspiration!

We’ve put together a couple of colour palettes that we’ve come up with on our travels for May. 🚴🏽‍♂️🏃🏼‍♀️🚶🏻

👉 The nerdy bit 🤓 …

Did you know that colours can affect how we feel? The colours you use can impact on how your customers perceive your brands and products. First impressions do count - so ensure you do your research 🧐 on colour psychology when choosing your colours alternatively if you’re struggling we are happy to help you! 😊

The colour palettes we’ve used for May are made up of pastel colours. Pastel colours are calming and uplifting - they evoke feelings of childhood, growth and springtime!

Which of our colour palettes do you like?🌷🌱🪲

We’ve recently had the pleasure of working with the lovely .smith_books on some book merchandise for their up and coming book launch! 📚

We love a mood board and it’s a great way to convey ideas 💡 with our clients before we start any design work. 🎨

✍🏻 Handy tip alert! - mood boards help to ensure you and your client are on the same wavelength from the offset and it’s a great reference tool to refer back to throughout the design process. Discuss colour palettes, typography, iconography, composition and overall image use that works for the project and your client.

Wishing .smith_books all the best with their first novel: Lost and Found. 👏🥳

Keep your eyes peeled 👀 for more on book merchandise coming soon!
