Illustrations for a lively brand

As a part of the comprehensive Familux Resorts branding project, we developed a unique illustration style derived from the umbrella brand logo strokes. Each of the four Familux resorts has its unique characters, rooted in the wildlife or legends of the region. From the moment you step into one of the resorts, they will make sure you are warmly welcomed while presenting to you the resort amenities and explaining the house rules. A whole world of characters is brought to life through print, tridimensional objects, and moving images. Parents love them as much as their kids!

Familux Resorts’ logical brand extension: Familux Yachts

Our long-term client, Familux Resorts, is launching a new brand extension in a unique service category: A once-in-a-lifetime yacht charter experience tailored exclusively to families with small kids.

Familux Yaschts, Greeting cards designed by Studio Q Brand Lab

Our task was to develop a catchphrase that communicates an unsurpassed sailing experience for the whole family, flows smoothly with the already established Familux tone of voice, and contributes a coherent umbrella brand image. To check all the boxes, we opted for tweaking the resort’s main tagline that we created a few years back, “Bring your kids, find yourself.” into “Bring your kids, sail the seas.” This postcard we designed is the first Familux Yachts ad piece shared with Familux’s most valuable brand ambassadors — their repeat guests.
