This udderly brilliant branding exercise uses bold colour and clever details to really pop.
Does this negative space branding quench your thirst for inspiration?
Negative space is, quite simply, the space that surrounds an object in a image. Just as important as that object itself, negative space helps to define the boundaries of positive space and brings balance to a composition. Here, San Francisco based designer Justin Ross Tolentino uses the method to showcase milk.
"The assignment was to create an identity for a job of yesteryear. I decided to base my project on a milkman I called Mr. Milk. My personal goal for the project was to create a timeless logo that could have easily been used in the 1950s as it could today," he explains. "To merge the past and the present, I paired the classic milk bottle silhouette with a clean sans serif.
"To give it some pop and contrast I decided to use cyan blue because I usually drink 2% milk. However, this colour could easily be interchanged to reflect the different varieties of milk, e.g. red for whole milk, yellow for low fat, and brown for chocolate."
