VISUAL IDENTITY DESIGN STRATEGY
Monte's Visual Identity aims to create a cohesive & sophisticated design.
The logo of Monte features the Logotype with a separate Symbol. The black/white/platinum logo is solid and timeless, it's the most concrete and serious thing in the brand's collections, which balances the provocative and outrageous designs of the brand's collections.
The logotype & symbol are minimalist; however, this is not a drawback in fashion companies. Such a minimalist logo gives a creative force behind the brand a chance to develop various clothing experimenting with styles, colors, and trends as much as they want. Due to this, even if the brand's apparel style happens to change soon, Monte won't necessarily have to modify its logos. An understanding of the industry and competitors influences the design choice. The logotype should differentiate the brand while remaining relevant within the industry's visual landscape.
The logo design prioritizes simplicity to ensure easy recognition and recall by utilizing clean lines, and clear typography, it becomes a memorable element that consumers can quickly associate with the brand. Considering its adaptability across various media, both digital and print. It should maintain its integrity and legibility regardless of size, background, or medium, ensuring consistent brand representation. A timeless design that ensures longevity, preventing the need for frequent redesigns that could confuse customers.
The brand color palette is carefully selected to align with the brand's values and resonate with the target audience.
The logotype & symbol become a visual representation of the brand's essence, values, and aspirations, creating a powerful tool for brand recognition and connection with consumers.
