Logo Redesign

Inspiration

  • Initial Inspiration: I drew inspiration from traditional Chinese window screens and Chinese seals, both of which are rich in cultural symbolism and craftsmanship.

  • Cultural & Brand Alignment: These elements felt like the perfect starting point to reflect Meng’s heritage while bringing a modern twist to the brand’s visual identity.

  • Logo Shape & Structure: The window screen influence inspired a grid-like structure in the design, symbolizing strength and balance. The seal influenced the overall stamp-like feel, giving the logo a sense of authenticity and tradition.

Concept Development

  • Symbolism: The grid structure of the window screen represents the idea of organisation and clarity, which aligns with Meng’s core values of precision and quality.

  • Colour Palette: I used a limited colour palette that reflected traditional Chinese colours, with a focus on deep reds and blacks, symbolising power, elegance, and timelessness. And continuig with colours already in the brands palette.

  • Iterations & Testing: I explored several iterations, refining the design in multiple formats to ensure it would work across both digital and print mediums.

  • Feedback & Refinement: After gathering feedback from the team, I made final adjustments to ensure the logo would be both memorable and adaptable for various brand applications.
