Bronze A' Design Award Winner 2025
Xiaobing Cheng's visual identity work for this enterprise demonstrates sophisticated understanding of environmental graphic design principles and the specific demands of outdoor brand communication, where chromatic intensity, simplified form vocabulary, and scalable modularity serve essential functional roles while constructing distinctive brand character. The designer's deployment of a dynamic color-field strategy across three vertical banners creates both unity through recurring formal elements including the white trefoil emblem and consistent typographic treatment, and engaging diversity through varied chromatic combinations that maintain visual interest while projecting coherent brand presence. The organic curved boundaries separating saturated color zones introduce biomorphic associations suggesting natural growth, flowing water, rolling hills, or stylized floral forms, references that align the brand with vitality, nature, and organic authenticity while avoiding rigid geometric severity that might communicate excessive formality or industrial coldness. Technically, the design exhibits exemplary clarity through its hard-edge graphic approach, ensuring clean optical boundaries between color fields that maintain legibility and impact across varying viewing distances and lighting conditions, while the selection of highly saturated complementary and triadic color relationships generates chromatic energy and optical vibrancy that commands attention within visually competitive commercial environments. The white trefoil emblem functions as an efficient brand mark, its simplified three-leaf or cloud-like configuration offering immediate recognition while carrying potential symbolic associations with luck, growth, natural abundance, or trinity concepts across cultural contexts. The vertical format and modular repetition with variation create flexible environmental graphics capable of scaling across architectural contexts, from single banner installations to extended sequences creating rhythmic brand corridors, demonstrating systematic thinking appropriate to comprehensive identity programs. The choice of script typography introduces cultural specificity while the contemporary sans-serif execution ensures accessibility for diverse audiences, the vertical stacking following traditional orientation while the clean letterforms project contemporary sophistication. Compositionally, each banner achieves internal balance through carefully proportioned color zones and strategic placement of brand elements, while the horizontal sequence across three banners establishes visual rhythm through chromatic variation and formal echo, creating both individual compositional integrity and collective ensemble harmony. The saturated palette suggests associations with celebration, optimism, accessibility, and contemporary lifestyle contexts, positioning the brand within hospitality, retail, event, or service-oriented sectors where approachability and positive affect serve strategic communication goals. One observes how the design negotiates the tension between immediate impact necessary for outdoor environmental contexts and refined sophistication appropriate to quality-conscious contemporary audiences, achieving memorability without visual aggression, distinctiveness without eccentricity, and chromatic exuberance balanced by formal restraint and systematic clarity, inviting consideration of how successful contemporary brand identity integrates functional visibility requirements with aesthetic ambition and cultural resonance.
The biggest challenge it faced in logo design was how to visualize the most natural feeling. it use extracted core elements from nature, such as flowers and clouds, and transformed them into simple graphics to convey the power of nature. The logo design uses soft curves to imitate the shape of clouds and the stretch of petals, giving the brand a simple and natural temperament. At the same time, we chose natural colors as the main color of the brand, such as sky clouds, and gray and white convey simplicity and regression, enhancing visual appeal and emotional expression.
