Vegan Voyager

The Brand

What does the company do, or offer?

Who is the company to potential customers? (as a person)

Why might this company entice someone to purchase a product or service

  1. A fashion and travel enthusiast who is not vegan, but cares about ethical sourcing of material. They adore leather accessories, but only buys faux leather. The individual is in search for a unique luggage tag.
  2. Someone who is vegan and supports companies who are committed to being 100% vegan and environmentally friendly – from products to production processes. Skeptical of truly vegan, eco-friendly-centric companies, therefore, rarely buys vegan leather goods unless they are well-informed. Currently seeking for a gift for a friend who enjoys travelling.

Comments:
Logo name assigned slab serif fonts. Serif represents traditional ways of doing things, i.e. leather work/artisanal craftsmanship, but bold for more approachable feel as veganism is a highly disputed, ethical topic.
Headings and paragraph assigned narrow sans serif fonts. Tall and narrow reminiscent of retro fonts. Sans serif fonts offer easier readability.
