My approach to the brief
I started out by gathering some imagery which matched the brief. Starting with the logo, I went with a modern approach by working out a sleek, negative space style design with the initial letter of the brand which is S. To complement this, I also selected a clean and bold typeface (Lato). 

During the exploration and research phase, I saw that keeping the images monochrome would help the vibrant colour palette to stand out more. I decided that the brand images should be in black and white, together with vibrant backgrounds which resulted in a strong, modern, bold and expressive identity.
