Final: Bear Bones System


Bear Bones Systems is an extraordinary company that brings the vision of a light weight trailer to the towing industry. In order to provide the company with a better marketing strategy, my group and I created a brochure, edited video footage, revamped the website, and changed the logo. I was in charge of redesigning the logo for the company.

The image located in the right hand corner in the design I created. Initially I had some trouble putting my vision onto paper or craft my vision in photoshop. I wanted to somehow incorporate either the name of the company or the concept of a trailer into the logo. I believe the "bear claw" on the right incorporates both the trailer concept and the name of the company. The picture on the right brings a gestalt feeling of simplicity but also brings forward the companies concept; a powerful trailer that can be hauled with only one tire. The picture to the left does nothing for me and I feel as if the audience has no idea what the logo represents.
