FWI | Poppulo Interim Co-brand
FWI | Poppulo Interim Co-brand
When FWI acquired Poppulo, there arose an immediate need for an interim co-brand that effectively represented both entities. My team + I interviewed key stakeholders and conducted extensive research into each brand, analyzing factors such as color schemes, prominent shapes, photography, icon + illustration styles, and other defining brand elements. Subsequently, we meticulously crafted an interim co-brand, serving as a transitional symbol for the combined entity for a year until we established the new Poppulo branding identity.

Legacy Poppulo
The original Poppulo brand was characterized by flowing curves and shapes, vibrant teal and purple hues, and playful geometric illustrations with a touch of cartoonish charm. It incorporated filled icons and embraced a dynamic and corporate photographic style.
