relax, it's just water
hello, hello! it's been a busy, busy week but my camera has been virtually idle so even though i've been working away in the studio, i don't have anything to show for it yet. that's why today i thought i would do something completely different and show you a design i created for my Graphic Design class. we were given the task of designing a logo for a bottled water company. each student came up with their own product name and concept and then designed the logo. (this is a fictitious company.)![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNC0-FuHXr2HQFjmoeljXfBz3K8_nbruScB0iTxnkwNvlHdmaj7kkaRdMZF1r5wEzeZJfphuHIDwuA047TsODloU7qZBgizoe37mazQR1vaEbZAP1aq8e0_0PbBoqpHVEANEFr_74kur0/s640/water_logo-01.png)

my company name is Just Water. although the word "water" doesn't actually appear in the logo, it's implied by the water droplet. the idea behind my water is simple: it's just water. it isn't flavored, it doesn't contain electrolytes, it doesn't come from an Antarctic glacier, it's not smart. it's just good, crisp water. i kept the bottle design minimal and the wording concise, as well. i chose subdued colors and clean sans serif fonts for the entire design. the tagline sums it up pretty well: it's not complicated, it's just water.
we've had a few other logos to design and one day when i don't have much else for you, i'll share another one or two. looking ahead to next week, though, i hope to get some photos taken so i can share what i've been working on lately. i have a few cards and a couple of holiday mini gift wrap kits that i'm excited about. talk with you soon!
Hi Rebecca!
ReplyDeleteI just recently found and started following your blog!
In a past life I thought I would go to school for graphic design, and dreamed of doing this exact thing; packaging design and company identities. I LOVE your concept, and I think you executed it so SO perfectly. How fun that you shared this; I look forward to seeing more!!
Hi Meredith! Thanks for your nice comments and for becoming a follower. I took the leap last year and went back to school for GD as an adult and I am so glad I did! I've learned so much and I, too, love doing things like the water logo. I'm so glad you liked it!
