Techniques on How to Execute Seasonal Design Into Your Branding

Even if you don’t look at a calendar for a whole year, you can most probably tell when the holiday season is getting close. Whether it’s the chilly weather or the pumpkin spice, businesses are all aboard the hype train during the holidays and try to find creative ways of adding seasonal design trends into their brand.

Holiday branding is a great way of building brand awareness, but there is a blurry line between being part of the holiday joy and overdoing it.

Before you jump into the holiday hype train, spare a minute or two to read out quick guide on how to implement seasonal design elements into your products and branding.

Find a way for your logo to say happy holidays.

Your logo is the forefront of your business, it is what tells the consumers what your business is about and the message you are trying to convey. The logo of the company speaks volumes about quality and the professionalism of your company, it is what gives the world an inside view of your company’s culture and background.

Give your logo a holiday theme, give it a subtle little holiday vibe by coloring it with regards to the holiday palette as opposed to your traditional color scheme. Have some fun and decorate it with a snowman, some holly berries, or a pumpkin to get into the holiday spirit.

The word to keep in mind here is subtle- your logo is the identity of your brand, so don’t go too crazy as your logo still needs to represent your brand. You don’t want your logo to be so into the holiday spirit that is beyond recognition. Have fun and have a go at the seasonal design trends and elements but don’t forget to have your brand’s voice still be heard amongst the santa hats and snowflakes.
