Success stories

  • L form logo filled with photo pf crashing turquoise sea

    Lochair

    Working with Western Colours from the initial concept stage, rather than bringing them in to flesh out the existing concept — was a game changer. Consulting on design thinking right throughout our early founder syncs. The concept and framework of our brand was built on these insights.

  • Logo with brand-name norse brewery, underneath a logo form of a vikining longboat straight on with a dragons head front and centre and striped sail.

    Norse Brewery

    We were firm on our brand value and vision, Aleks worked with us from the get go, happy to bounce off our vision, whilst bringing it to the next level.
    We needed an established packaging design from the off to quickly establish market presence, this has worked well cementing our brand in large grocery retailers.

Lochair Wellness

We worked with the creators of Lochair from the off, generating concepts for the identity. We moved around the concepts of natural, organic, local and therapeutic. Eventually encompassing two words, to creat a mental image and emotional impression by pre-existing associations.

Julie’s Kitchen

After the length of lockdowns, like a lot of business Julie’s Kitchen was seeking a fresh approach to take-out and deliveries. This now being the largest part of the business and with most growth potential. We sought to build a recognisable illustration set that drew the eye, was recognisable, multi functional and encouraged interest.

“To be able to make the customer’s mouth water, to capture their attention, to build recognition and, drive growth from just illustration - is powerful.”

Norse Brewery

We have been working with Norse since its very early stage development. Norse approached us to create brand concepts and a brand strategy, including brand feel, logo, copy, and roll-out in collaboration with the family-run team. We moved around the concepts of Norse mythology, slow-process artisanal brewing, viking concepts, and Norse Celtic art. Eventually encompassing a modern look with traditional patterns, around a clean minimalistic visual identity, expanding on familiar Norse preconceptions and forming an individual modern approach to the interpretation. 

“Being based in Canada, working with Western Colours over in the UK has been great. Working remotely hasn’t slowed us down at all.”
