Island Park Idaho Ranch Branding
Michel and his partners own a 267-acre property in Island Park, Idaho, centered around a private 80-acre trout lake and surrounded by world-class outdoor access. The property has two five-star Airbnbs. 

Goal
Develop a name and brand direction that reflects the land’s character and adds credibility. This work will position the property as a high-end destination for future development, partnerships, and premium buyer interest.
Deliverables
  • Three viable name & logo options for the property. 
  • Inspired by the vision of the owners while creating a brand platform that would fit well alongside the Yellowstone Club, or other Discovery Land Investments.
  • Present and discuss the directions in a creative workshop with property owners to align on final direction.
  • Develop the foundation of a brand platform that brings the credibility and appeal of investors and developers via moodboards and logos.

 

Volerra 
“Let Your Spirit Take Flight”
    “Volerra” comes from the French root voler, meaning “will fly”
    The name has a sense of adventure, freedom, and movement that lends itself easily to the design

    Embrace the Rustic flair with a grounded authentic Western personality 

    Rounded, bold type along with some added texture adds that hint of vintage old west flair while still maintaining a clean soft look that doesn’t feel super dated

    The type (specifically the V) pulls from the styles of logos you’d see used for livestock branding








Solara“Where the West Shines Brighter”
    Solara comes from a latin word meaning “of the sun” and is a name built around light, warmth, and openness. It feels modern without losing that connection to the West

    Drawing from the region’s golden hours + big-sky sunsets to capture the emotional experience of Idaho’s sunsets and open plains

    Less “rustic lodge,” more “boutique mountain retreat.”

    Not too formal but still elevated and curated






Elkstone“A Legacy Carved from Stone & Sky”
    Elkstone is a name that feels rooted, strong, and tied directly to the land

    Draws on the wildlife, horse imagery and frontier spirit, while still showing a quiet western luxury

    Feels curated, selective, and tailored with a hint of hand made artistry

    Advantage of creating a variety of logos, you can apply a logo everywhere without quickly becoming repetitive
