Client Brief

Milford Waterfront is a popular marina waterfront destination on the doorstep of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The destination hosts a range of festival and events each summer including Milford Fish Festival, a Beer Festival and The Street Food Warehouse festival.

In order to promote all the summer events to a wide audience, the marketing team at Milford Waterfront created ‘Summer Fest’.

I was asked to create a youthful energetic festival style brand for the all summer event taking place at Milford Waterfront, a brand that would appeal to trendy summer festival-goers and that could be used across all advertising and promotional material.

Execution

For the main festival brand I created a stylised sun with the ‘M’ and the ‘W’ of the Milford Waterfront logo. A repetition of these letters and the spiralling pattern of this part of the logo create a vibrant and festival style sun graphic.
I have applied this graphic across the marketing/advertising material for this project.
The sun graphic re-enforces the warm summer element of the brand.
A deliberate raw, earthy texture has been used for the background of the promotional material, this was achieved using a photographic background from a hull of a boat found at Milford Waterfront.
I used the Milford waterfront brand colours throughout the promotional material in overlapping rectangular shapes for the text with overlapping colour tones to create a summer vibe.
