Background

In late 2021, I had the exciting challenge of crafting a brand identity for Høi, a Norwegian company pioneering modern agricultural practices. The goal was to create a brand that wasn’t just professional, but also felt fresh and connected to the earth. To imagine a brand that could appeal to both everyday folks and big businesses.

Nature's Palette

To capture Høi’s essence, we turned to nature’s own color palette:

  • Blues: Convey professionalism, trust, and a modern aesthetic.
  • Greens: Symbolize growth, nature, and a sense of balance.
  • Browns: Evoke earthiness, stability, and a touch of sophistication.

Fonts with Flair

We chose a font pairing that perfectly complements Høi’s personality. Elegant serif fonts lend a touch of tradition to headings and titles, while sleek sans-serif fonts keep body text clean and modern.

Clean Aesthetics

To showcase Høi’s amazing products, we embraced a clean and contemporary aesthetic for photos and videos. This approach is perfect for platforms like Pinterest and Instagram, ensuring Høi’s online presence is as visually stunning as their products.

Reflections

Developing Høi’s brand identity was a truly rewarding journey. The final result successfully blends modern design with a deep connection to nature, creating a user-friendly brand experience that resonates with both consumers and businesses.
