NOKE 2022
Crowbar Awards 2002 Bronze (Art Direction)Because of the pressure to do well for the ever-changing uncertain future, an increasing number of youths are experiencing anxious feelings and negative thoughts of varying severity and do not know what to appropriately do with it.
We found that youths feel empty and constantly tired in their fast-paced lifestyle which focuses on self improvement. However, youths remain ambitious and look forward to making a positive change for themselves and society.
Noke is a brand that explores with youths the thoughts and feelings they experience daily, through mindfulness, so they can appreciate their present! Noke wants youths to be content and positive in their outlook of life through many different seasons, good, or bad, or in between, putting mental health first.
Logo
Noke is the weird mental and emotional state many youths are in. Not okay. Okay. Okay but not okay. The weird mental and emotional state the target audience are in. An awkward, simple word.
The logo shows a hand coming out from inside to the outside, showing an awkward ‘okay’ sign. This signifies that there is someone in another world inside the hole, and they are signalling their feelings about how they are doing in there.
