Studio brief 1: final evaluation










The colour of the logotype changes depending on context as colour is not the characteristic that defines the branding of this watch company. The colour scheme that works best at representing the brand is the dark background and white letters on the shop front. This shows the high quality the best and suits the target audience the most appropriately. 

The form of the logotype of horizontal with spaced kerning to illustrate the type of brand and what expectations the customer should have. The designer may have chosen the wide spaced kerning to represent the high quality that the brand provides. The high contrast line weights of the typeface work well to represent the watches as being fashionable and this is a typeface characteristic that holds that association. 
The designer’s choice to focus the unique aspect of the design on the 'O' works well because it is the centre letter of the word, automatically engaging the attention of the audience. The line design illustrates what the brand sells and as a stand-alone symbol on signs and products, it would be recognisable enough to work effectively. The designer may have been trying to communicate the simplicity of time and the modern look of the design may have been to communicate that the products being sold are stylish.

If the logotype was to be further developed, the size that it has been presented on the watch face could be adapted so that it isn't as big. The product may appear of a higher quality if the typeface is smaller and it will also match the way it is presented on the front of the shop.
Th typeface may look more memorable if the line weights are made to have a higher contrast. The contrast it has now is similar to a lot of brands associated with quality fashion, so this should be maintained but emphasised more so that it stands out.
