Final logotype

For this project, my client, a .NET developer passionate about the web, wanted to refresh his visual identity and explore ideas for a new look for his app screens.

The concept was based on the puffin - a bird that symbolizes travel and exploration. He was looking for a logo that felt fun and stylized, but not childish, and a friendly typeface with a balanced personality.

Initially, we explored the idea of integrating a puffin into the letter “P,” but I felt it was unnecessary, since the name “Puffin Pilot” appeared right below the logo - the symbol and text together were becoming redundant.

My client had previously generated a logo using AI but wanted something unique and tailor-made. He had also designed the first version of the app screens himself, but was looking for a fresher, more polished aesthetic.

He reached out to me to redesign the identity and give the interface a creative lift. I designed a new logo, selected a friendly yet structured typeface, and created updated screens he can now use in future versions of the app (which hasn't been published yet).

The keywords that helped me develop this identity were:

Travel - Puffin - Colors - Playful - Convenient

UX / UI design

The priority was placed on a few screens, to allow my client to start developing fast.
