3. ADVERTISING AND CORPORATE CONCEPTS
Customer: Balnak Logistics
Brief: We were asked to create a general corporate ad informing all
the services Balnak provides; also to create an idea that is adjustable
to follow-up applications and campaigns.
Art Director: Ece SY
Copy Writer: Çiğdem Zeytin
Concept: “All in Balnak”
The idea of this concept is to use a red square as the main design object
and tell stories with it. Square is symbolizing a cargo box; red comes
from the color of the logo. It is simple, easy to use and very easy to
remember; therefore, suitable for this new branding campaign.
