THE CONCEPT
BECAUSE. was conceived as a mobile platform bringing people together to support one another while raising money for charity. The name itself comes from "be the cause", putting participation and collective action at the heart of the brand.
FINDING THE IDENTITY
The challenge was to translate a complex idea — community, collaboration, contribution and connection — into an identity that felt simple rather than overly designed.
Visual references and early identity explorations
Exploring colour, warmth and the idea of “cause”
Early logo concepts — collaboration, connection and participation
Exploring the “BE” within BECAUSE.
Developing the visual language through typography, colour and imagery
Exploring skin-tone-inspired palettes to introduce warmth and humanity
Refining the identity — simplifying the visual language while retaining a sense of connection
Final identity — roundness, transparency and controlled randomness within a structured system
FROM IDENTITY TO INTERFACE
The final direction translated into a warm, minimal visual language for the app and its accompanying landing page. Rounded forms, transparency and a human-led colour palette helped carry the sense of openness and collective action into the digital experience.
