In their own words
We wanted the visual identity to extend beyond just graphics, it had to be part of the entire guest experience.
It’s a brand that behaves like culture, not just a hotel.
We decided to customise the curves of the letter ‘S’ to add uniqueness and a subtle sensuality, breaking its seriousness.
Each segment has its own unique characteristics but remains connected to the main brand.
Within the project, one of the tasks was also to design promotional cards and capabilities decks for each artist. We needed to highlight their images and make them the primary focus.
The previous identity used a standard sans serif font; the agency wanted a new look, but also didn’t want to completely abandon the story they had built.
We were feeling overwhelmed and frustrated in our jobs in different advertising agencies.
Part of our income is reinvested in the studio, mostly in people.
Bringing new experiences to any field is almost an obligation.
