Design Bridge and Partners led a visual identity overhaul for energy company Iberdrola, with a brief that every identity element should have greater impact while using less energy. Fontwerk adapted its Pangea family into the bespoke IberPangea and IberPangea Text, delivering 20 weights. The logo was simplified by reducing curve points, eliminating gradients, and narrowing the color palette to three values. Typeface and color serve as connective elements across Iberdrola's international subsidiaries without requiring name changes.
