Urban geometry: a poke that breaks away from the Hawaiian, beachy cliché.

The challenge

Urban geometry: a poke that breaks away from the Hawaiian, beachy cliché.

Develop a brand strategy and visual identity that reflected the urban concept, representing the diversity of cultures, ideas and lifestyles of big cities, to stand apart from what the category had established.

What we did

Starting from research, we developed the brand strategy, built to suit a contemporary pace of life, creating a space full of life, good vibes and a chance to recharge without losing the rhythm of urban living. We developed the “Urban Geometry” concept, capturing the essence of the city, its streets, textures and verticality; from there we built the whole visual identity (summed up in the brand manual) and then the creative strategy, which lands the identity in digital media. The icon is a fish deconstructed into a bowl, paired with an uppercase typeface with Asian touches.
