Keho Lake Farm is a family-owned business based in Canada, they provide organic fruit and vegetables to nearby supermarkets.  ‘Composition in art is the way in which different elements of an artwork are combined. In general, this refers to the key subjects of the artwork and how they are arranged in relation to each other.’ (Rise Art, 2021).  The Keho Farms logo shows good composition through text and image arrangement, and the use of colour and shapes. The key elements in place create a consistent flow of information, through graphic design, clearly displaying the purpose of the family-owned business. The readers eyes are immediately drawn to the flourishing centre piece plant, surrounded by two toned fields and sunrise acting as a curtain opening to the rest of the logo. The different tones of green used make the fields appear longer and more vast pointing out to the circular border in which the logo sits. The clever combination of the sunrise pointing upwards and the fields pointing out to the sides give the illusion of more space within the logo making it feel less cramped and over powering. The complimentary colours used throughout the logo are subtle but make a big impact on the reader, being consistent makes it easier to follow therefore making it more appealing. The typography has been arranged in different ways in which creates more shape and dimension to the overall logo. The brand name is bold making it standout to the audience whilst also acting as a separator between the imagery and typography making it look more professional and straight to the point. Overall the composition throughout the logo creates a more spacious feel to a small circular emblem.  The Lambing Shed Farmshop and Cafe is located on a farm in Cheshire. The organisation aims to provide the public with the freshest produce and meat. The lambing Shed is firmly committed to the ethos of ‘farm to table’; all produce and meat come from the farm. The Lambing Sheds logo is an example of bad composition. The out of place typography makes the whole logo appear awkward and unprofessional. Moreover, the logo doesn’t stand out as the colours are too subtle, and the typography is unnoticeable, especially on a white background. The Lambing Sheds redesigned logo is simple but makes an impact on the audience. The original imagery works well within the new design and provides a subtle colour pop, bringing the whole logo together. In addition, the redesigned composition of the typography helps the viewer’s eyes flow naturally from one word to the other. Finally, the change in the colour of the typography makes it more noticeable; the bold black is clear with a youthful appearance; this relates to the cafe’s name and conveys the shop as family-friendly. In conclusion, the correct arrangement of elements such as typography and imagery is essential for making the composition of a piece work well. The accurate composition can create space and tell a clear story through elements such as colour, shape, typography and imagery. Finally, the new design is consistent, making it highly legible and easy to follow, getting the message across to the audience in a bold and striking way whilst not being too overpowering and crowded with lots of images.

ComCrop is an urban farming organisation based in Singapore. The pesticide and herbicide-free business utilises marginalised spaces by turning them into high-quality rooftop farms. The company uses hydroponic technology for planting, reducing water waste by 90%, and using sunlight instead of artificial lights indoors, making it a highly sustainable business. Around 90% of food in Singapore is imported, forcing them to become reliant on other countries, making them highly vulnerable to supply distribution. The use of urban farms minimises the risk and provides fresh, healthy food with a longer shelf life, resulting in less waste and increasing the responsibility behind sustainability. The Comcrop logo is striking, with a significant colour variation that sparks excitement and curiosity. The use of primary and secondary colours throughout the logo makes it vibrant and fun, catching the readers’ eyes. The colours used are green, yellow, blue, purple and orange, with the use of black and white shades to frame the logo through typography. The yellow representing the sun suggests happiness and creativity, reflected through the creative concept of urban farming. The colour green used for the typography and plants is associated with health and fertility, representing the extraordinary growth of plants. The calming blue used to describe the reduced water waste suggests intelligence and responsibility, portraying the business as trustworthy and honest. The accent colours used for the buildings are subtle enough not to take away from the true reasoning behind the main colour choices. The logo is displayed on a white background which really makes the colours pop and stand out. Finally, black is used to add depth and outline the imagery whilst also making the typography highly legible, pulling the whole logo together. Harvest London is an urban farm based in Layton, London. They grow herbs and vegetables through vertical hydroponic farming. Hydroponic farming is growing plants and food without the use of soil and using recycled materials instead. Utilising this method of farming is more sustainable. Using recycled materials reduces carbon emissions and stop the degradation of soil. The growth of food is controlled at every step of the process, ensuring that the right amount of sunlight, water, nutrients, and humidity is used to reduce waste. The logo is clear and well designed. The environmental green colour used throughout the logo represents growth and sustainability, while the white background is clean and tranquil. However, the colours used do not convey the urban message behind the organisation. The new colour scheme for the ‘Harvest London’ logo is simple but makes a powerful impact on the reader. The colours used signify a clear contrast between urban and rural climates. The healthy green colour has been reused for ‘Harvest’ and the tree emblem of the logo. The colour green symbolises nature, fertility and health, already making a clear suggestion that fits the organisation’s farming ethos. However, industrial grey has been used for ‘London’, characterised by the complex and elegant structures of the crowded city. The colour also signifies the thick smoggy polluted climate in which the innovative farm is located. The tranquil white background suggests that farming can work well within a city climate and attract more interest in green locations amongst other cities, bringing more nature, clean air and sustainability to modern living. In conclusion, the new colour scheme better represents the organisation to the audience, bringing all aspects of the brand and its goals into a simple, clean and polished colour scheme.

They sell nutritional products, including high protein foods and a wide range of healthy additives required to reach fitness goals effectively.They also sell activewear and sporting goods. The Women’s Best brand strives to help and encourage women to achieve their fitness goals by providing a creative, intelligent and open-minded community where women can learn to be the healthiest versions of themselves without judgement or criticism. ‘Without the right caloric intake, energy, and nutrients in your body, it is impossible to exercise effectively and achieve the weight loss that you desire.’ (Humphries, 2021). Ensuring the body receives the correct nutrition is critical for exercising, whatever the overall goal may be. Many people decide to cut nutritiously dense foods out of their diet on extreme calorie deficits for weight loss. However, slight calorie deficits are suitable for this specific goal; it is easy to start to lack vital nutrients the body needs, leading to deficiencies sometimes causing more harm than good. Food is fuel when exercising for any goal, so ensuring the body receives the proper nutrients is extremely important. The typeface used in the logo is highly readable and clear. The sans serif used gives a masculine and basic appearance to the brand. The typography is overpowered by the image above, almost sinking into the pink background. Moreover, the logo could be improved to make more of a lasting impact on the female-targeted audience. The redesigned script typeface incorporates femininity whilst conveying a bold and striking message to the target audience. The feminine typeface is delicate, curvy and has no harsh lines, flowing effortlessly between words making it easy on the eyes. In contrast, the uppercase typography represents strength and power, empowering women and forming a link to the brands products. Therefore, a better representation of the brand.

Christopher Raeburn is a responsible fashion designer based in East London, Stratford. Raeburn’s ethos is to create sustainable fashion pieces using the innovative approach of ‘RÆMADE, RÆDUCED, RÆCYCLED, and RÆBURN’ (RÆBURN. 2021). The fashion industry is one of the largest polluters, and ‘less than 1% of used clothing is recycled into new garments’ (worldbank.org. 2021). This creates considerable increases in global carbon emissions, massively impacting the effects of climate change. Raeburn reworks old garments and uses leftover fabrics to create new, functional pieces inspired by military and utilitarian clothing. Raeburn launched a collaborative, community project to share the true meaning and integrity behind sustainable living and his innovative approach to fashion. As a brand, ‘Raeburn’ is striving to path the way for new responsible designers and encourage communities across the world to live more sustainably, choosing more ethical approaches to everyday life and educating people on the side effects of fast fashion. Therefore, creating a healthier environment and reducing the damaging effects of climate change. Raeburn’s abstract logo incorporates the main elements unified throughout his brand’s identity. The iconic logo is an interpretation of a universal air force parachute. The crest contains four neutral colour segments with a webbed overlay, a bold outline, and the RÆBURN branding. The colours used in the emblem include orange, sand, white, and olive, which all relate to camouflage seen in his original idea of reworking old military clothing. The colours combined with his sustainability ethos could link to World War 2, Make Do and Mend, and rationing. The earthy colours express a sense of safety, whilst the webbing of the parachute suggests stitching, repair, and forming alliances. The A and E in the bold typography are overlapping, which imply being reworked and sewn together to create something new out of the old. Therefore, portraying his brand as sustainable, responsible, and honest. BaySixty6 is a non-profit skate park organisation based in North Kensington, London. Although many articles suggest this is not the case, Skate parks are typically stereotyped as a beacon for anti-social behaviour and problematic youths. ‘Young people make a significant contribution to the economic and social vitality of city centres in the UK, yet others often frown upon their presence and activities.’ (Skateboarding: The City as a Playground, 2021). BaySixty6 have many objectives including, providing a safe space for people of all ages to enjoy the urban sport, offering support for parents and schools in the local area and providing classes for overall self-improvement, including mental and physical health. In addition, they provide excellent opportunities for people most at risk of social exclusion and prevent anti-social behaviour in the community, therefore creating a safer environment for the public and breaking the stereotype. The BaySixty6 logo could be improved conceptually, as the design does not convey its goals to its audience. The emblem encompasses an interpretation of an umbrella with bold typography layered over the top. The thought process behind the new logo was to incorporate skateboarding and the community whilst also keeping aspects of the original logo. The original composition and typeface of the logo work well with the new concept. Keeping the typeface but adjusting it slightly has created a new effect. For example, the letter ‘Y’ in Sixty has been replaced with a V-sign representing youth and harmony across different communities. The V-sign was used as an offensive gesture in the past, but ‘In the 1960s, however, it was annexed by American, and later British, youth as the ‘Peace sign’,’ (V-sign, 2021). In addition, the skateboard has been merged with the 6 to make it more compact and illustrative whilst including the sport, overall creating a more exciting logo that conveys the organisation’s goals using imagery and typography as one.
