Cycle London - D&AD New Blood, VBAT | Superunion

  • Oxana Inkina

The Challenge : The creative studio VBAT set out the D&AD brief, the main focus is to re-brand the identity of local bike hire scheme in a city of my choosing. I need to demonstrate how the new identity will encourage more people to opt for bike hire, showing examples of why the person should opt for bike hire from other options through a demonstration of the sort of experiences they can gain from it. The Proposal : I decided to create a new bike hire scheme which will be based in London, I am going to create a name and logo for the new bike hire scheme, with an example of a bike wrap design and a prototype app design. The main focus is to show how the identity will stand out from the rest of the schemes and encourage tourists and locals to ride. I looked at how I can encourage a person to use the services by highlighting the different in time that it takes to get from point A to B. The app contains hire services, the user can locate and unlock a bike, input their own route or pick a routes which are available in the app, each route is meant to show the best of the city.

There are details on where are the next docking station for the bike, the photo opportunity spot which could be a historic site or a visually creative space. It also provides information on bike lanes, ensuring that the cyclist is practicing safe cycling on the roads.

Cycle London App

The application screen design

The app was design to be used for hire of bikes and more information on the service. The target audience come from all backgrounds , so the app needs to be easy to use and navigate throughout. I used the pieces of design work which was made earlier, this way the branding is constant and the same throughout and can be easier to identity by users.
