We created an illustrated mascot that became the brand's distinguishing feature.

Context

Boost came to Hard Fork with an established logo but no visual system built around it. We developed the identity alongside the new website, using both parts of the project to create a shared visual language.

Problem

The logo needed a broader visual world to support the brand's communication.

Objective

Create a recognizable, flexible language for Boost's different channels.

Approach

Develop original assets that expand the identity and support the brand's communication.

Challenge

The challenge was to make the identity more recognizable and approachable across formats, maintaining a consistent aesthetic without losing the flexibility each piece required.

Solution

We developed a system of graphic assets to support Boost's communication in different contexts. It includes an illustrated mascot, a series of original illustrations, templates for social media and presentations, and pieces such as stickers.

We developed the visual language alongside the website, combining photography and illustration to create a shared aesthetic across all the pieces.
