Croft Carbon College

The Croft Carbon College commissioned us to design a memorable logo for its education project, along with custom graphics for their new app. Here’s what we created…

Overview

Founded by Leith Community Crops in Pots in 2018, the Croft Carbon College is a local centre for raising environmental awareness within the community of Leith in Edinburgh. They provide accessible courses and events that encourage people to take action to support the environment.

Brand identity

The charity approached us to create a brand identity for the initiative and first tasked us with designing a logo and icon set to support their key areas; waste, energy, water, food, travel and wellbeing, as well as detailed brand guidelines. The overall image, aligned with the organisation’s vision, has been received positively by the team and the community.

We appreciate the support Sarah and Jonathan have given us with the development of our brand image and mobile app and there is no doubt in my mind that without them the charity would not be what it is today. They're responsive, friendly and helpful, they listen carefully and help to clarify what we're aiming for, and we couldn't be happier with their creative input and the value they’ve added to our charity.

Mobile app design

After creating the branding, we moved onto building the Croft Carbon College mobile app, which involved in-depth planning, sketching and annotation of wireframes, and custom design and development.

Since its release, the mobile app has enabled the organisation to gather meaningful data. We’re now excited to be further developing the community element of the app, due for release in 2020.
