Our Solutions
Brand story and logo design
The brand story centres on guiding ships to shore, driving businesses to prosper, and bringing people together. This narrative captures PKCT’s role as navigation point, commercial hub, and gathering place. The story framework provides a foundation for all communications across B2B and B2C audiences.
The logo identity design incorporates three symbolic elements: the Nautical Star representing guidance, the Open Sea Horizon representing business opportunities, and the Globe representing PKCT as a multi-port destination. The visual system communicates the terminal’s dual function as both a commercial maritime facility and tourism gateway.
Corporate identity, brand guidelines, and merchandise
The brand identity suite includes stationery systems featuring business cards, letterhead, envelopes, corporate folders, notebooks, lanyards, mugs, and pens. The identity extends across both corporate communications and visitor-facing applications throughout the terminal facility.
The brand guide development covers logo usage rules, colour specifications, typography, imagery direction, and brand personality traits guiding all communications. Branded merchandise was designed for the brand launch event and ongoing promotional use, extending brand visibility for terminal visitors and staff.
Corporate website and video
The digital web presence serves as the primary information source for cruise operators, visitors, and commercial tenants. The site presents terminal facilities, cruise schedules, and commercial opportunities. The website design reflects the brand identity and supports marketing objectives across both B2B and B2C audiences.
Corporate video production included on-site filming, drone footage of terminal and port facilities, post-production editing, and professional voiceover. The video showcases PKCT’s capabilities and atmosphere, supporting presentations to cruise operators, tourism partners, and at industry trade shows.
The Results
The brand identity established PKCT’s position in the regional cruise terminal sector. The comprehensive identity system provides governance for consistent presentation across all stakeholder communications, from cruise operator pitches to visitor wayfinding.
The corporate video, website, and merchandise support marketing efforts across trade shows, partner presentations, and visitor engagement. The integrated brand system positions PKCT as a professionally managed maritime tourism facility.
