Creative Inspiration – Beautiful Branding! Hello everyone! Welcome back to the Rachael Taylor blog! We hope everyone has had a fabulous weekend & are ready for a brand new week! If you’re an aspiring or experienced graphic designer, a lover of packing, print & web design, or keen on getting into conceptualising & designing brands, a great way to gain inspiration is by browsing social media sites like Instagram. As a visual platform, IG is & continues to be a growing outlet for branding agencies & freelance designers to share their work. Branding is an integral part of nearly every industry, spanning from small creative ventures to big-time corporations. As such an encompassing & vast area of design, there are plenty of opportunities to channel your creativity, improve your skillset & build a varied portfolio. Ultimately, creating a strong brand identity can be an extremely rewarding project for any designer & we want to encourage creatives all over to give branding design a shot! Rachael & the team at Make It In Design are also big advocates of brand-building & have ran a number of e-courses & a fab video series around building your own brand. Their courses also include bonus technical workshops to help you improve your Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop mock-up skills which are essential when composing a branding portfolio! Below we have found some gorgeous examples strong brand identities on Instagram. We love that these creative concepts are brought to life with fabulous typography, the incorporation of surface pattern & wonderfully bright colour swatches. The variety amongst the industries also demonstrates the possibility for designers to build a unique portfolio that reflects their passion & tastes across tons of different industries.
