challenge

Insurance company managers and automotive corporations typically face challenges with complex software. That’s why the process of collecting data from vehicles can be a bit of a headache.

Real-time vehicle tracking, predicting potential problems, and accident reconstruction — all of these had to be considered in the product design. A perfect software offers everything in one place, simplifying things for those who aren’t fluent in the language of technology.

It was a fully fresh perspective in every sense.

The research showed that competitors’ websites somewhat lagged behind the latest trends, which didn’t align with the technological and innovative nature of this business.

Hence, we aimed to convey the client’s digital orientation through a practical and rigorous branding approach, complemented by bright accents.

For a brand to speak with one voice, it needs a brand book to set the tone.

Creating a logo where every line points to financial ascent

The Owncap logo serves as a metaphor for aspiration, opportunity, and equity growth. It is intersected by a dynamic arrow pointing upwards. Through this simple line, we depicted progress, ambition, and the continuous rise of financial success.

If you look carefully, you’ll see a head-shaped icon in the background. Our designers added this well-rounded figure to convey an emotional connection with a user, emphasizing knowledge, control, and guidance.

This logo is visually appealing and possesses deep semantic content, successfully reflecting the application’s ideas and user goals.

Color harmony and content visualization

The main design idea was to add pleasant symmetry and calmness. From a palette of pastel tones our team settled on a green that traditionally links to money and stability. Then, we added lavender to give a sense of calm and yellow to bring some energy and joy.

For this combination, we chose a modern ALT Riviera font due to its sleek lines and contemporary styling. To add an eye-catching touch, our designers also included pie charts that give a clear picture of users’ spending without overwhelming them.

With the usage of vibrant colors and stylish font, we created an aesthetic harmony that takes users to a world of financial comfort and understanding.

Crafting confidence with geometry and clarity

While working on branding, we used dynamic geometry to slice through the noise and complement the overall picture. Plus, the use of simple, one-line icons for key features makes the platform accessible and user-friendly for all.

As numbers speak volumes in the financial sector, we spotlight the key metrics that matter. Bold, large fonts with succinct descriptions either above or below these figures command the immediate attention of a user’s eye to the data that drives decisions.

With geometric patterns, vibrant colors, intuitive visual elements, and simple icons, we’ve built a confident branding image in the financial sector.

Logo creation

Sketches

A truly iconic logo is a trail of drafts

We explored different sketches during the design process. Initially, our designers considered wordmarks that convey a sense of technology, innovation, or modernity. We also experimented with minimalist symbols to accompany the wordmark. Ultimately, our team chose a wordmark featuring the infinity symbol and a symbol formed from C and A, creating an infinity loop.

Being a data scientist, our client had written Python code to perform mathematical calculations. So, one of our key goals was to leverage the right technologies to correctly integrate this code into the platform.
