# Xhuma: Connecting youth & education

Xhuma is a humble South African start-up who's mission it is to revolutionize the local education system through the use of an online portal where students, specifically from low-income families, can access university course-ware information as well as apply for tuition by creating a profile online.
Together Xhuma and CC created a branding experience that aimed to directly communicate Xhuma's vision in connecting youth and education.

Connecting youth and education:

A logo that can directly communicate its vision and can speak for itself is not only an aesthetic plus. It also reminds those representing the company what their mission is. It is a symbol to which to strive toward.
The logo uses the wording here, starting with a symbolic representation of the student and ending with an open book symbol, to represent the process at Xhuma. All the while maintaining an elegant and modern aesthetic, attracting a new generation of young thinkers to make use of it's service.

# Coach Fifi: Lifestyle coach

Refiloe (Coach Fifi) is a South African life coach, public speaker and author. In this project we helped her create a unique website to market her business. This was complete with marketing metrics (mailchimp) and even a custom e-store to sell her products.

The project was built using the Gatsby.js framework and deployed on Netlify. We also set the website up using Contenful: A headless content managment system (CMS) to host all her products, youtube videos and pictures.

The result is a very clean & unique website that runs extremly fast. The custom e-store implementation linked with PayFast also makes for a 
very user-friendly purchase flow.

The assets and final design were also put together using Figma.

Check out the final result [here](https://www.refiloeradebe.com/).

# Digital Blacksmiths: Future of Manufacturing

Digital Blacksmiths is a Project started in Nairobi, Kenya by an international NGO known as TechforTrade. Their aim was to experiment with a new type of local product manufacturing and bring social impact to small businesses in the developing world. This type of manufacturing involved the use of 3D Printing technology (What is this?) to improve supply chains and encourage local product development.

Cozmic Creatives was in charge of bringing this idea to life by creating a visual narrative. The main story here being the forging of new digital technologies with artisanal skill to bring impactful products to the Kenyan market.

Digital Blacksmiths was an exquisite collaboration that challenged Cozmic in many regards. In trying to capture the powerful message this company is trying to portray Cozmic went above and beyond to find a personality that honestly represented it's ideas. The result is a creative brand that inspires customers through its powerful symbolism.

# deSter: Catering you to your destination.

deSter is a aircraft catering design office & plastics manufacturer located in Hoogstraten, Belgium. In collaboration with Cozmic Creatives a project was born bringing a new perspective to catering & user experience during flight.
Using conceptual 3D visualisations various ideas were brought to life creating conversation around how aesthetics affect on-board passenger experience. The result of this being a deeper understanding of the customer and his/ her satisfaction.

Summer & Winter tray:

Imagine you are travelling to Norway, flying over mountainous landscapes topped with snow-covered peaks. Your tray arrives and upon it lie similar geographical forms. Your imagination is set free and you are allowed to take part in a story being created before you while you savour delicacies made with local tastes in mind.
These trays consider how aesthetic and emotion are closely binded and allow the passenger to take part in a story and perhaps create a memory.

Honeycomb:

This design aims to replicate nature through which certain elegant solutions are always synthesised. The Honeycomb shape ensures space-saving. Here an extra design feature was added by which the component is able to be used on both sides as a bowl to hold or a stand to present food items.

Delta trays:

Delta, the largest american airline service is constantly looking for innovation and unique solutions in aircraft catering. Here a number of salad bowls were developed with mass production, user-experience and stackability in mind.

Cathay amenities:

The Asian airline is also constantly innovating and looking to adhere to current trends. In this example an eco-friendly amenity set was developed. A bamboo handle could be switched out with various modular components to accomodate various user needs.
