To aid in promoting my campaign I designed a mug and mouse pad both featuring my logo design on them. I decided on a mug as they are used by virtually everyone meaning they can be aimed at a large audience and are likely to be used in turn exposing my brand to mass audiences. I placed the logo on quite large against a white mug so that the brand would be as legible as possible.
I also decided to design a mouse pad, this time trying to appeal to people who spend time working at computers. As designers (web, graphic etc...) also spend considerable time on computers I thought this would be a good way to appeal to that audience as well. I decided to use a black background with the logo, in white, placed in the corner so that it was not blocked and still visible if the pad was in use. I also thought that black would be less likely to show any stains, marks which the pad would be susceptible to due to its material.
