Designia.nl - Design process and elements

When I started my freelance career, back in 2007, I used my own name as a business name because that was the easiest and fastest way to start.

Not long after that and when the amount of projects grew, I had the idea of splitting the communication around my different design disciplines (illustration, web and UX/UI design, logo design) and online portfolios onto different URLs and webpages. This would allow possible clients to focus completely on their needs for a specific design discipline. 

The creative concept was to make a virtual world, Designia with different nations, like Illustration Nation and Identity Nation. 

Therefor the Designia logo needed to be a collection of elements. A collection of Nations. One obvious symbol for a nation (and world) would be a flag. A flag that showed the collection of Nations. Each Nation should have a distinct color. Stacking those colors would make a fine flag. 

By changing the shape of a ‘d’ (Designia) a little and with a bit of ‘Imagi Nation' it would look like a fine flag pole with flag that showed the stacked colors.

The Duin- en Bollenstreek (Dutch for "Dune and Bulb Region") is a region in the western Netherlands, that features coastal dunes and the cultivation of flower bulbs. Situated at the heart of historical Holland nearby the city Leiden, South Holland, and boundered by The Hague and Haarlem, the combination of beaches, flower fields, lakes and history makes this area attractive to tourists.

The flower season begins with the flowering of crocuses in March, followed at the end of March by the combined flowering of tulips, narcissus (also known as daffodils) and hyacinths, which extends into early May. In the autumn, a further display occurs when gladioli, dahlias, carnations and asters flower.

Marco van de Lingen is owner and manager of online platform Bollenstreek.nl. Through the website and on Social Media information on activities, events and general tourist information on the region is updated and maintained. When he founded Bollenstreek.nl, he needed a logo that conveyed a trustworthy message with keywords like ‘Dutch’, ‘tourism’, ‘bulbs’ and ‘flowers’ in a stylish manner.
