Turning a Client’s Vision Into Design Reality

September 23, 2020 by Emily Keroack

As part of our partnership with client Haven Dock & Marine, we created a new brand identity to help them connect with home-owning customers. While they adored the final product, they came back to us with another project: create an icon that could pair with their new identity.

They wanted a simple, clean icon that matched well with their new brand identity and could be used online and across print marketing materials. 

Here’s their logo, pre-icon:

The Challenge

Create a unique icon representing the Haven Dock & Marine brand that can stand alone or be part of the full logo. Make it:

  • Simple, but not generic
  • Clean, but not boring
  • Iconic, but not abstract

Step 1. Planning

We talked with the Haven team about what kind of icon they were envisioning, how it would be used, and what they wanted it to represent. This first step is key for getting everyone on the same page, which makes the project faster and avoids extraneous rounds of revision.

Step 2. Sketching

After planning and brainstorming, our design team sat down and got to work. We created several different designs based off of our client’s input—and made a few extra options we thought they’d like.

Step 3. Feedback

Our top priority is regular communication throughout the design process. We sent over our designs, listened to what our client liked, what they didn’t like, and what direction they preferred. We eliminated options, discovered new ideas, and got a step closer toward making Haven’s dream design.

Step 4. Refining

With our client’s feedback in mind, our design team made revisions and refinements. We sent back new designs, collected more feedback, and continued this cycle until we landed on something the client loved. 

The Outcome

The Haven team chose a group of piling as the graphic to represent their brand—strong, foundational, and conveniently one of their top selling products! Take a look at the final product:
