Evolving a logo into a brand identity for Gardens by Olivier

See how I created a bespoke logo and brand identity for a garden design business in Hammersmith. Professional logo and brand design to elevate you and take you to the next level.

Olivier runs a thriving garden design and maintenance business in Hammersmith, London. He offers a full range of services to create, re-design, and look after gardens so they flourish year-round. When he reached out to me, he wanted a fresh brand logo design that would modernise his business identity and look great on his van.

From Concept to Brand Identity

Olivier had some initial ideas for his logo but needed help developing them into a clear and professional identity. This project was the perfect opportunity to refine his brand and create a logo that worked across different formats.

As part of my brand logo design London process, I:

  • Explored his ideas and presented design concepts
  • Created a distinctive brand mark and refined it through feedback
  • Matched and expanded his colour palette for consistency and accessibility
  • Produced a full logo suite including a condensed version for digital use

The result was a professional, versatile logo that reflects Olivier’s vision while strengthening his brand identity.

A Logo That Works Everywhere

The new brand logo design is now proudly displayed on Olivier’s van, helping him stand out across Hammersmith & Fulham. It’s also used consistently across his website and marketing materials, ensuring his brand looks polished and professional wherever customers find him.

You can see his new logo in use on his website and on the van around Hammersmith & Fulham!

Client Feedback

Olivier was thrilled and left me the following 5 star review on Trustpilot:

“I had the pleasure of working with Christopher on designing a new logo for my company, and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. Communication was easy and seamless, and Christopher had a clear understanding of how the new logo should represent my brand.

The whole process was well-organized, with clear steps and regular online meetings to review progress and discuss ideas. I’m extremely pleased with Christopher’s work — he’s very creative and consistently went the extra mile to deliver a final product that I’m truly in love with. On top of that, he’s simply a great person to work with.

I cannot speak highly enough of Christopher and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him. Beyond logo design, he also offers services such as web design, site maintenance, and SEO. In fact, I’ll definitely be asking Christopher to handle the SEO for my business and to re-design my website as well.

Thank you again Christopher!”

Common questions

What people ask before starting.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on the scope, but our builds start at £650 for a landing page and £1,400–£5,866 for a custom website. E-commerce starts at £4,150. For ongoing support, WP Care plans start at £59/month, SEO retainers from £549/month, and our all-in Studio packages from £270/month.

However a project is priced, we break it into milestones — each with a fixed price tied to a working deliverable. You never pay 50% of the total cost up front. Instead, you pay 50% of the first milestone to start it. When that milestone is complete, you pay the remaining 50% of it together with the 50% deposit on the next milestone — and that's what unlocks the next phase of work. The pattern continues until the final milestone is delivered, at which point you pay the remaining 50% of it.

The effect: cash flow stays smooth, you always see a working deliverable before paying for the next, and we never carry more than half a milestone of unbilled work.

How long does a project take and what does delivery look like?

Indicative timings:

  • Landing page: ~4 weeks from kick-off
  • Custom website: 4–8 weeks
  • E-commerce build: 8–12 weeks
  • Brand work: 2–8 weeks depending on tier

Delivery is broken into milestones built around working functionality, not internal phases like “design” or “build” in isolation. Think of it like an MVP and then MVP+1, MVP+2 — at the end of every milestone you have a live, usable thing you can see and sign off on.

For a typical website project, the milestones look something like this:

  1. MVP — A working homepage and core navigation on staging, with your brand applied. Real, clickable, mobile-friendly.
  2. MVP+1 — All inner pages built, forms wired, analytics installed.
  3. MVP+2 — SEO foundations, schema, performance optimisations, content polish.
  4. Launch — Final QA, DNS cutover, hand-over docs.

You'll always know what we're working on each week and what's due back from you. We never start the next milestone until the previous one is signed off and paid for, which keeps surprises out of the project.

What if I need a bit of everything — can you do that?

Yes, and this is what our Studio packages are built for. Instead of piecing together a freelance designer, a marketing agency, a developer, and a hosting account, you get all of it from one team on one monthly fee:

  • Studio Lite — £1,200/month. SEO retainer + GBP management + WP Care + 6 hours/month of design, dev or content time.
  • Studio Standard — £2,250/month. Bigger SEO scope, 13 hours/month design + dev, quarterly brand reviews.
  • Studio Pro — £3,500/month. The whole stack — 18 hours/month of flex time, weekly GBP posts, monthly cross-discipline strategy session.

Studio is best for businesses who'd otherwise hire a junior designer plus a part-time marketer. It's also how we work with most of our long-standing clients — they like having one point of contact for the whole digital side.

Do you offer ongoing maintenance after launch?

Yes — four WP Care plans, £59–£259/month, covering plugin and core updates, daily backups, security and performance monitoring, and content tweaks. Most clients pair their build with at least our Essentials plan so the site stays healthy and up to date.
