Summary

I'm looking for an experienced brand identity designer to refine an existing visual concept into a polished, production-ready visual identity system for a food and lifestyle brand. This is not a branding project from scratch. The creative direction has already been established. The successful designer will be provided with a draft brand guide, mood board, typography direction, colour palette, logo concepts, and overall visual direction after shortlisting. Your role will be to refine, unify, and professionally execute these concepts into a cohesive brand asset library suitable for web and print.

Logo Suite Refine and recreate: Primary logo Secondary logo Circular submark Monogram Horizontal and stacked logo variations All delivered as professional vector artwork. 2.

Deliverables: Please provide all final assets in editable vector formats including: AI SVG EPS PDF Transparent PNG What I'm Looking For: This project is about refinement, not reinvention.
