Re-imagining private air travel.

Challenge

Since the early days when people dressed in formal attire for travel, air travel has been associated with luxury. While the attire may have evolved from suits to pajamas as flying became more accessible, the ultimate symbol of luxury shifted to private jets. Private flying eliminates the need to rush to the airport or wait in long TSA lines; instead, travelers can arrive whenever they wish, drive straight up to the plane, and depart. However, this luxury typically comes with a hefty price tag. Enter One Air, a conceptual project aimed at providing the convenience of private air travel at the cost of commercial airlines.

Approach

With a luxurious aspect to the brand, I immediately knew I needed a clean and minimal brand identify to properly convey the brands message. The name "One Air" was chosen as the brand name to show that it's the "one" and only airline you will need, emphasizing its straightforwardness and exclusivity. The logo, "1A," nods to how airline seats are labeled and reinforces its position as a top choice in air travel. To match this idea, a simple color scheme of dark grays and blacks was picked to give a classy feel. Making it stand out, a bright red color was added as an accent color to grab attention and give the brand some life. This careful design makes sure the brand feels classy while still being appealing to its target customers.

/Presentation

Enhancing the brand identity through the use of creative design mockups.

I wanted to keep things simple with this project's brand identity and try out some unconventional mockups to really capture the luxurious vibe of the brand. My goal was to give viewers a taste of what it's like to experience the exclusive opportunity of flying private. I used real renderings of a Global 7500, which happens to be one of my favorite planes, to create a special livery that showcases the clean and sleek branding in action. Additionally, I dabbled in designing mockups for a mobile website to show what booking a flight might look like in practice.

One Air's brand design embodies a fusion of luxury and accessibility, reflecting a paradigm shift in private air travel. Through its clean and minimalistic aesthetic, coupled with a bold yet restrained color palette, One Air communicates sophistication and modernity. The incorporation of real renderings and unique livery designs for aircraft showcases the brand's commitment to delivering a premium experience. By redefining the visual language of private air travel, One Air sets itself apart as a symbol of refined elegance and convenience for all travelers.
