Pentagram, led by partner Angus Hyland, has refreshed the brand identity for British eVTOL start-up Vertical ahead of the launch of its Valo aircraft. The project introduces a new strategy, naming, and visual system designed to make urban air travel feel accessible and aspirational. The updated identity reimagines the hummingbird symbol, introduces Universal Sans typography, and uses sky-inspired gradients and motion principles to reflect the brand’s forward-looking vision.
