Learning about contemporary curving organic graphic design
The Coca-Cola bottle from a book "What is Branding?"by Healey, matthew:
I got inspirations for revolutionary advertising process.
Green design:
This design was initial research of green design.
Dutch design: nice stuff
I got inspirations for evolutionary identity's process.

Advertising (revolution)
Based on a big idea, I explored images and ideas for advertising (revolution)
The main concept behind the design is coexistence of living creatures.
I adapted to use butterflies for airline shape and nautilus, which I use for the idea level for identity.
Here is some inspirations stuff for advertising.

Advertising (Evolution)
Based on a big idea, I did a brain storming for creating advertising (evolutional approach)
What kind of living creatures I can use for creating attractive advertising?
I kept looking for animals and flowers all the time, but what about leaves?
It is also alive with people on the same planet.
I scanned some leaves to see how I can play with them.
As Damian recommended, I did some research about Georges Braque, who is a French artist drawing a lot of birds.
He is an amazing artist. There are lots of beautiful bards. The curving shape and wings are
impressive.
I started sketching birds a lot and a lot. I need to draw and explore more and more!!!
Who is Georges Braque?
Georges Braque was born in 1882. He grew up near Paris, and in 1902 he settled there to study painting. He really liked pictures by the fauves who painted with bright colors and unstructured forms. He painted in those styles until 1908. In 1908 Braque began to paint in the cubist style. Between 1908 and 1913 he began to study light and perspective. He used his studies to use shading of a cube to make it look both flat and three-dimensional at the same time.
In 1909, Braque began to work with Pablo Picasso . They both began to use neutral colors and complex geometric patterns. This style of art is now called analytic cubism.

Birds: beautiful shapes (a model of airline to fly), fly sky, bring peace, messenger

Brand identity (revolution)
The big idea is "coexistence"
Unlike brand identity (revolution), I completely changed the image of brand identity.
I still remain sky blue colour, but it is part of importance for shifting the colours.
Sky blue to green to yellow.
The colour meaning is:
to change the original service: Sky blue
to caring company for people and environment: Green
to promise bright peaceful future: Yellow
As a visual, there is no crown and power of Royal Ducth; however, the shape of identity, circle has the meaning.
The circle represents "Orb".
Orb is a ball that a king hold as a power. The meaning is also involved a globe.
It is power and a living place.
I attached some pictures, which I used for getting inspirations for identity.
Orb:
1: any of the concentric spheres in old astronomy surrounding the earth and carrying the celestial bodies in their revolutions
2archaic : something circular : circle, orbit
3: a spherical body; especially : a spherical celestial object
4: eye
5: a sphere surmounted by a cross symbolizing kingly power and justice

Brand identity (evolution)
A big idea: Coexistence
Brand identity for evolution is to develop the original identity, but keep the important part of current design of KLM.
I decided to keep the crown image and the sky blue colour.
The reasons are:
1. KLM is owned by the government and a crown is representative of Holland.
2. The colour represent sky and there is no transportations using the same colours in Holland.
In addition, other airline companies do not use the same colour. It is KLM distinguishable colour.
I developed the current identity by creating Art Nouveau style leaf image and it is also links to Algae, which
KLM airline is going to use as fuel.
The font that I created is new, but reminded the original KLM font.
The idea is keep the important factor from original images, but develop the identity for the future promise.

A big idea for this project
A background for the big idea:
KLM is going to:
Green-using "algae-based fuel"
More friendly
Surviving without cutting flight cost
Sociable
Better service
The new business is that KLM is going to use algae-based fuel if succeeded and clear safety issue and supply.
KLM needs the better communication and inform everyone that they are caring people and green.
How can KLM link each other to inform their service and green activities?
"Coexistence"
Between KLM and humans
Between KLM and living creatures
Between land creatures and sea creatures
Between flying creatures and land creatures
Between flying creatures and sea creatures
All of them links together for food chain and living on the planet.
