The Linen Group – Art Direction

Blue Whale Media is delighted to present the art direction for The Linen Group, a leading UK-based linen cleaning business known for its impeccable service quality and commitment to sustainability. The Linen Group specialises in providing premium linen cleaning services. Our goal was to create an art direction that not only reflects the brand’s high standards but also distinguishes it in the competitive market.

Art Direction Philosophy

The art direction for The Linen Group is anchored in the principles of elegance, sustainability, and cleanliness. We sought to convey the premium nature of their services while also highlighting the company’s commitment to eco-friendly practices. This approach was meticulously designed to resonate with The Linen Group’s target clientele who value both luxury and sustainability.

Colour Palette and Design Elements

The art direction for The Linen Group is characterised by a sophisticated and nature-inspired colour palette, alongside design elements that communicate the brand’s core values:

Colour Palette

Plum: A rich, luxurious shade that brings depth and sophistication to the brand, plum signifies the premium quality of The Linen Group’s services. This distinctive colour sets the brand apart, adding a touch of elegance and refinement.

Dark Green: Symbolising the company’s dedication to environmental sustainability, dark green reflects The Linen Group’s commitment to green practices and its respect for nature. This colour reinforces the brand’s position as an eco-conscious provider in the linen cleaning industry.

White: Representing cleanliness, purity, and simplicity, white is central to the colour palette. It not only complements the other colours but also reinforces the fundamental essence of the linen cleaning service—immaculate and pristine linens.

Design Elements

The branding incorporates clean, minimalistic lines and textures that evoke the softness and quality of freshly cleaned linens. Imagery used in the branding features close-up shots of textiles, emphasising texture, quality, and the tactile experience of linen. Environmental motifs are subtly integrated into the visual identity, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to sustainability.

Bach 95 Branding – All Media

It serves as a visual invitation to savour the moment and enjoy the crisp, refreshing taste of Bach 95 beer, guilt-free.

The Dean

The Dean – From strategy to sophisticated

The dean is a restaurant based out of Merseyside. The restaurant is a high-end boutique restaurant serving five-star food. The premises were in development when the Dean started their project. The Art Direction was set based on the food and type of premises the client was looking to create.

The signage created by the team at Blue Whale Media was to establish the client as a restaurant. We needed to make them easy to identify from people passing as the premises is on a busy prominent location. The customised fonts incorporated a restaurant icon to help establish the presence. We then also ensure that the Art Direction was followed with the gold engraving feature which pulls into the gold interior and features used throughout the premises.

Optical Revolution

Optical Revolution – Branding you didn’t “see” coming

Optical Revolution is a new brand established off the back of independent optical retailers. The aim was to bring the independent stores under one styling so they could become a division business. They are mainly focusing on high-end eye care with all patients receiving an enhanced examination.

Blue Whale Media Ltd created the logo and colour concepts for the company. We opted for a clean professional look but stayed clear of the medical colours of blue and green as we didn’t want to establish an everyday brand feel and wanted the company to feel more exclusive. We ensured the Art Direction continued through to the inhouse posters created for aesthetics to ensure that the premises all followed the Art Direction.

Alex's Bakery

Alex’s Bakery- A branding legend in the baking

The Art Direction for Alex’s Bakery had been set from an idea of a fun and exciting brand that was enticing as Alex’s Bakery has a café from on a prominent street in Manchester.

The Art Direction was based on the bright pink but also incorporates other colours from a similar tone. The packaging used for the products in café and via their online store incorporates a lot of suspense packaging which provides an expensive feel to the products. The in café feel compliments the website as the same font styles, backgrounds and feature aesthetics are used throughout the premises.
