Notes for Live Fire Portfolio Project
APPROACH:
Tom works 60+hrs/wk so he doesn't have time for lengthy consultations. This meant I had to do a lot of research and come to meetings prepared to accomplish. I sent Tom a brief questionnaire to help guide my research. With that info I pinpointed his clientele, analysed competitors, and defined his mission & brand archetype.
First Thing's First:
Live Fire Logo
CHALLENGE:
Modern Live Fire Cooking is a new industry and doesn't have a symbol or logo associated with it. (Opportunity knocking.) I set off to design a logo that conveys the idea of cooking and defines live fire while still being bold but not too complicated. I researched the style of cooking and came up with a list of words that would inspire ideas.
live fire logo ideas
carving knives. symbol for fire/rebirth . simple
carving knife. bold. modern
carving knife. small flame. bold. modern
flame . bold . beefy . chef carving knives
