Increasingly, the challenge is to create businesses that engage and deliver ‘emotional’ relationships within differing customer groups. Telenor embraces this philosophy with a ‘brand built around people’s needs’ and has set the ambition of becoming the customer-centric industry leader in all of their markets by 2014. Each year the Telenor Group take part in the Mobile World Congress, the worlds largest exhibition for the mobile industry. I was part of the team in charge of designing the Telenor Groups Hospitality Stand, which would also act as the launch of the new ‘Telenor Design Stretch’, a re-imagined visual identity. Return to Contents 03 Tapstorm AS New Visual Identity & Rebrand David Nathan Davies Tapstorm AS New Visual Identity & Rebrand When Telenor Group decided to develop a cloud computing offer for business customers, they chose to brand it independently. This meant the offer could also reach beyond the existing customer base. We helped the project team define all key dimensions of the project before drafting briefs for naming and design. Tapstorm is the solution. Launched in early 2013, it has performed strongly with its current selection of productivity and management tools. With the Tapstorm name and brand design agreed, Pajama created a presentations template and guidelines for stationery. We also undertook a photographic assignment, delivering 40 original images for use in print materials and online. Beyond the look and feel of the brand, we also advised on the appropriate tone of voice for written communications and the online environment.

Doro’s range of easy-to-use mobile phones is unmatched and its unique know-how has been recognized through several international design awards. The company’s products are sold in more than 30 countries on five continents. Over the past year I have been working on a wide range of briefs for Doro including leaflets, brochures, print and web banners along with helping to refresh their visual identity. Return to Contents 05 Telenor Group DTAC Financial Services David Nathan Davies Telenor Group DTAC Financial Services In 2013, DTAC looked to create a new identity for its safe and easy money transfer services called ‘EasyPaisia’. The aim was to create a new visual identity with closer links to the Telenor Group’s look and feel, one that could also be adopted by all of Telenor’s eleven markets around the world. The solution, named the ‘Floral Shell’, was inspired by the natural world, resembling the funnel shapes of the Arum Lily and sea shells. This link to nature gives the service a unique symbol which helps it to stand out from its competitors whilst also creating a trustworthy shape that implies safe management of wealth and ease of use. The ‘Floral Shell’ is organic, yet highly engineered, visually simple, yet mathematically complex; these are the same principles that inspired the Telenor Groups logotype. To help the symbol work in some of the Telenor Group’s more crowded markets, such as Grameenphone in Bangladesh and DTAC in Thailand, a set of colourful meshes were created to cut through the noise and draw attention of the brand.

The solution shows the two brands in a loose association to leverage the value of both. The packs are for an Alcatel model, on sale in Eastern Europe, which uses the Firefox mobile OS.
