Task
Create a dynamic identity that allows Awarri to compete globally but still stay connected to its African roots.
Solution
With the expertise of the founder in the robotics field, a need to bring advancement, solutions and education to the youths in Africa, the desire to make Awarri a globally competent brand, we discovered there were a multitude of brilliant ways to communicate Awarri’s values, one of them being the name itself.
To achieve this, we focused on what made Awarri unique, it's name, which when translated in English means to “seek and find”. We expressed the brand’s value proposition through a visual identity system that tells the story of simplicity, innovation and inspiration. With greater visual presence and character, the logo communicates Awarri’s desire to build an ecosystem, using strategic set pieces across Africa. It’s diverse audience gave inspiration to a vibrant colour palette with the flexibility to speak to Awarri’s audience.
With the patterns, we brought the brand home to Africa, carefully selecting african symbols that best exemplified our goals, personality, vision and mission.
