The logo form mimics the movement and recycling of air through CO2Rail's direct capture system.
I created a new PowerPoint template for use during pitch presentations.
Working with content from the CEO and product managers, I designed and built a multi-page website on Webflow, ensuring responsiveness and clear flow of information.
I provided art direction for our motion designer, who created custom 3D animations of CO2Rail's system. I then integrated these into the website using scroll triggers and Lottie.
The original visual identity and site were busy, inconsistent, and confusing. To ensure an effective brand refresh, we:
Defined brand values, goals, and personality, in collaboration with CEO and product managers
Conducted competitive research into branding of other decarbonization-focused businesses
Produced 5 visual directions based on values and research, followed by refinement and selection by CEO and CO2Rail team
