Justin’s Role
Justin’s role on the project involved shaping the brand’s visual identity and enhancing the user experience through thoughtful UI design. In this portfolio entry, Justin will give a brief overview of the work he accomplished alongside the talented team behind Skol Casino, an online casino platform.
OVERVIEW
In the dynamic landscape of the iGaming industry, there are countless online casinos, each competing for attention through diverse themes and styles tailored to specific target audiences, our team was entrusted with the unique challenge of conceptualising and launching a distinctive casino experience. The stakeholder articulated the need for a fresh and innovative approach, aiming to captivate an audience distinct from those traditionally associated with their existing casinos.
Promptly responding to this project, our team initiated an intensive brainstorming session to form a solid brand identity, encompassing the casino’s name, stylistic elements, and, crucially, the user experience. Recognising the urgency of the project, especially with the ambitious goal of a pre-conference launch in London, we swiftly mobilised our resources to generate comprehensive mockups and innovative concepts, ensuring a seamless blend of creativity and functionality in the proposed user interface and experience.

Drawing on the client’s valuable prior experience in casino development, the session proved exceptionally fruitful. The client shared invaluable insights into the subtleties of the target audience and its unique features, leveraging past casino ventures to inform a more strategic approach to the current project.

BRANDING
BRAND IDENTITY
It was important to chose colours depends on the theme of the casino, we went with natural colours with Teal, White and Green
Logo Type
Upon reviewing the diverse logo designs crafted by Justin, the stakeholder made the strategic choice to select a minimalist logo. This decision was because the website itself would feature a vast amount of imagery, and a sleek, unobtrusive logo would match effectively with the overall visual complexity. This thoughtful selection not only ensured coherence within the design elements but also prioritised a clean aesthetic for the brand.
Colours
The casino’s colour scheme revolves around Teal, White, and Green. Teal dominates, evoking sophistication, while White adds a clean, modern touch. Green injects a fresh, lively vibe, symbolising luck and growth. This harmonious palette enhances the visual appeal and aligns seamlessly with the casino’s dynamic atmosphere.
