Brand Identity System: Vista

This project encapsulates a complete brand identity system for a reimagined, modern golf course and club. This process included developing a name, logo suite, visual language, animation and branded applications. Together, these elements showcase the process of building a cohesive and functional brand identity.

What is Vista?

At Vista, golf is for everyone. We combine tradition with accessibility, creating a relaxed, inclusive experience where players focus on the game, not expectations. From first swings to seasoned players, our environment encourages connection, enjoyment, and a love for the sport.

Where it began

Sketches

I began the brand process by quickly sketching logo concepts based on the initial idea I developed. This exploratory phase allowed me to experiment with different directions and pinpoint the mark that would most effectively bring my brand concept to life and elevate its identity.
