South Harbour Vineyard Church is a Christian community which, like a harbour, is a place of both security and sending. South Harbour Vineyard Church was planted in March 2020 under the auspices of Vineyard Aotearoa.
South Harbour Vineyard wanted to establish more of an online presence through socials and the web. The goal was to create a comprehensive brand design that reflected the Manukau Harbour (Auckland’s southern harbour) and a website for the church.
"South Harbour Vineyard is a place where we find God’s refreshment and to catch our breath from the storms of life, being equipped to be His people, bringing life to our city."
We created a brand identity rooted in the visual language of the harbour — nautical precision combined with organic warmth. The primary mark, type system, colour palette, and brand guidelines were delivered to equip the plant team with everything needed to launch confidently into their community, both online and in physical spaces.
We also created a dynamic website built in Squarespace, where the website and animation reflect the harbour. Where users can navigate church events, courses and find out more about South Harbour Vineyard.
