We were tasked with designing a cohesive family of event logos for OEUK, each maintaining a connection to the main brand while allowing for distinct identities. Every logo integrates a unique shape that aligns with the broader brand aesthetic while introducing fresh colours and imagery for each specific event.

For the OEUK Conference 2024, which gathered over 350 delegates from industry leaders to government officials and innovators, the logo symbolises collaboration and partnership. The shape reflects themes of connection, with elements representing people meeting, shaking hands, and forming lasting alliances.

As one of the most anticipated events on the industry calendar, the OEUK Awards provide a unique platform to honour the innovations, dedication, and excellence that drive the sector forward.

Our concept for the Awards logo centers around a star emerging from the letter ‘A,’ symbolising excellence and achievement. To reflect the theme of celebrating the brightest talents in the field, we incorporated twinkling stars and a touch of gold dust. This design embodies the spirit of the evening—a night dedicated to honouring the remarkable accomplishments of individuals and organisations.

HSE logo
The concept behind this logo is rooted in the event's core focus: Health, Safety, and Environment. Each shape represents one of these key areas. At the top is a symbol for personal health, followed by a surrounding shape that embodies workplace safety. Together, they rest on a foundational shape representing the protection of the broader environment. This layered design visually reflects the interconnectedness of these crucial elements.

Share Fair logo
The concept behind this logo is a simple shape that depicts a network coming together and sharing. It is a key business development event in the industry calendar. We used vibrant colours, which reflects the dynamic energy and opportunities associated with this event.

We were asked to develop a re-brand for the NHS Grampian Endowment Fund charity. The name would be changing to NHS Grampian Charity and a new logo would be needed. Working with the team at NHS, we created a presentation of ideas that encompassed their values, their mission and worked within the NHS brand guides. The resulting logo was a simple bold shape, using 3 hearts that represented adding value to NHS through fundraising and donations which are used to provide benefits for NHS staff and patients, to enhance services, and to provide support in communities.

We created a new and unique identity for the long established and well respected Architect firm Halliday Fraser Munro in Aberdeen. The logo uses negative and positive space to create the three letters HFM and also reflects a building structure. The new identity has been rolled out across their materials; business cards, letterheads, flyers, adverts, exhibition stands etc.

We’re delighted to have been able to support CFINE in creating its refreshed brand image, bringing the personality of the charity to life. As part of Aberdeen Foyer, and a social enterprise ourselves, Foyer Design is especially proud to support CFINE, with whom we share similar values and aspirations.

CFINE provides fundamental and vital support to people experiencing poverty within our local community and we were keen to ensure the new brand respected its core purpose but also provided a nod to the current and future aspirations of the charity.

We had the pleasure of collaborating with Gael Cordiner on designing the logo for Elements Restaurant, a fine dining gem in the heart of Bearsden, Glasgow. Elements embodies 'essential, characteristic components of a composite entity'—a concept that perfectly aligns with the logo elements symbolising Air, Fire, Earth, and Water.

Elements Restaurant, led by renowned Head Chef Gary Townsend, is passionate about delivering exceptional food and service, utilising ingredients sourced from Scotland’s most committed producers and farmers.

Their evolving tasting menu and à la carte options for evening service, along with a delightful four-course menu for lunch, offer guests an enticing and exploratory food experience in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

The Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival's annual celebration of Whisky has developed into one of the largest events of its kind anywhere in the world. With a programme of over 600 whisky-inspired events over 6 days, it takes place throughout Speyside, the biggest whisky producing region in Scotland, located in the Moray area in the North-East of the county between Aberdeen and Inverness.

Foyer Design were asked to create a re-brand which would bring a fresh approach that allowed a parent and sub-brands, adaptable to various mediums and appeal to the diversity of its audience.

We were delighted to have tendered and won the opportunity to work with Huntly & District Development Trust on refreshing their brand and sub-brands, so that they had a consistent and considered set of logos and supporting materials.

Huntly had a strong town branding symbol that the Trust were keen to retain in some way. The antlers were therefore developed to represent the community and landscape that tied everything together. The antler symbol can be seen within the sub-brands, but treated in a slightly different way - each has their own shape, set of colours and tagline.

Foyer worked with Aberdeenshire Council and School pupils to pull together a branding and range of marketing materials for young carers of school age. The ideas of the young students were taken on board and they ultimately chose the design they wanted. It was a great pleasure to produce their final logo, leaflets, posters and pull up banners.

Logo refresh. We set out to improve the clients original logo, by technically drawing and creating a balanced representation of turbine blades. Colours were adjusted to align better, the font was refreshed and the end result was a sharper, balanced logo.

We were approached by Sarah - a coaching and training consultant to come up with a new name and brand. She wanted to appeal to her target audience of young adults and offer personal development coaching to improve and brighten their futures. Our solution for Sarah uses simple clean shapes, with bright soft colours and the lightbulb concept adapts well to many uses. We also worked with a partner web developer to create the web site, we designed a set of images which reflects the brand strongly.

Testimonial

“Through a recommendation, I visited Julie at Foyer Design in 2018. I was launching my business and looking to create a brand. I wanted something bright and fresh that was simple and easily recognisable. I arranged to meet Julie who asked me about me and my business, it was so comfortable. The team provided a few options and they absolutely nailed it. I was so excited to have a fantastic logo, they also provided visuals for my website and business cards that I couldn't wait to hand out. They also suggested 3ft props (feel free to describe, add photo etc) which are great talking points and photo props. My clients love them.

Since then, I have sent Julie many requests for new website and social media photo's, christmas cards, a pop-up banner, posters and notebooks for events. I don't give much direction on what I'm looking for as I don't need to. I completely trust the team and they never disappoint. I'm always excited to see what they have come up with.

The service they provide is fast, reliable, trustworthy, uncomplicated and best of all, benefits others (being a not-for-profit).

People often ask me who designed my logo, I'm always delighted to recommend Foyer Design.”

The beautiful open plan kitchen space and café area provides opportunities for community learning, cooking and workshops.

The logo wanted to feel organic, with a growing font choice and stone texture. Soft colours and shape echoes the leaning greenhouse shape.

We were asked to design a logo for the Church that would welcome everyone through its doors. Inclusive of ALL, no matter their beliefs and create a community of people supporting each other. The building and its features inspired the team and the final logo chosen was using the window details and shades of diverse colour.

We were approached by Visit Aberdeen to create a new identity for their tourism steer. They required a distinct, bold and visionary logo that represented the North East and its highest recorded hours of sunshine! It also needed to be adapted and used across a variety of digital and printed promotional materials.
Working with Visit Aberdeenshire for many years we’ve designed and produced an array of branded materials from tourism booklets, city maps and banners to interior glass vinyl, airport adverts and tote bags. We have worked alongside Web Integrations and the Leith Agency on their advertising campaign, continuing to service and develop their ever-growing brand.
