PUF! Festival-Brand identity

This  week I want to share a brand identity about a totally fun subject, a Festival organization called Puf!. Though their images look a little bit kitch, again it looks so interactive and entertaining. It's like a toy brand, totally speaks the joy they aim for their product. In the case of type face, i don't want to comment about it's type design but it looks nearly like notation. I can at least say it speaks to me by its circular or strict lined forms. Here:

Trafiq

This week I would like to show you a brand identity that really troubled me. I am not sure about the lack of hierarchy in these works, everything big and looks old. But they are intentional. Because it's really a clue about the trafiq name itself. It speaks. But how come that kind of old Roman typeface(or looks like) connects with that. Although they say they want to catch the vibe of 19th,20th century(yes it's definetely that century but...) Maybe the problem is with the name and what it sells. On the other hand I really liked the 3D works, the space relationships are really amazing. So have a look=):


"Our goal was to create an image that revives the vibe of the late 19th – early 20th century, while also reinterpreting this vintage foundation by injecting it into a contemporary atmosphere. Therefore, the logo is based on a Roman-type font, and is mixed with a playful, classic ligature. The logotype contains the address, and thus locates itself. The latter fact provides an easier form of communication and unifies the typographic language, moreover, thoroughly determines its style. Nevertheless, the typographic language tends to reach beyond the boundaries of a logo and of various graphic elements, and becomes the concept itself, the interior’s distinguishable cornerstone.
A “trafik” was a type of tiny shop selling tobacco, sweets, newspapers, toys, and other knickknacks, and was a real treasure island for children. I’ve purposefully created an image that reflects this specific feeling. The typography resembles broadsheet newspapers, while French cards, the essential accessories of early 20th century clubs and the typical souvenirs of a “trafik”, serve as accentuated design elements. Trafiq has its own deck of cards, which, besides being used as business cards, fill various functions, further strengthening an already well-established visual identity.

BUILDING GRAPHICS

The VIP lounge’s concept:

Similar spaces usually ooze sultr Similar spaces usually ooze sultry lust, so the quotes written on the walls are taken from erotic literary works in their original languages. The quotes are taken from timeless masterpieces such as Apollinaire’s The Eleven Thousand Rods, Boccaccio’s Decameron, and, last not least, Geoffrey Chaucer’s 

The Canterbury Tales.

The restrooms’ concept: Simplistic restroom graffiti collected from Anglo-Saxon countries, and separated by genders. Their content was not altered, although they are presented in an elegant, footed, and classical antiqua that conjures an intense paradox and basically gives life to an artistic concept; moreover, it gives an iconic edge to its location.

Posters:

Humorous, framed texts referring to sexuality, night-time entertainment, and getting tipsy, all interpreted in the language of contemporary typography. These texts, at least to an extent, resemble both the philosophy of late 19th – early 20th century artists and the atmosphere of bohemian saloons independent from high-nosed institutions.

Classy forms of hidden advertising, signages, and the suggestive art work covering the DJ booth enrich and complement the concepts listed above.

PACKAGING

The concept of packaging is based on the world of the formerly mentioned “trafiks”, and puts simplistic, playful ideas into practice such as hard-pack cigarette boxes and matchboxes. Regardless, it still pulls off the feat of remaining elegant, and follows the visual path carved by trafiq’s image. Both the technological design and the execution of packaging can be attributed to Sz. Variáns Csomagolástechnikai Kft.

Brand identity

Since we are now dealing with brand identity and co-products, I've searched for som brand identitiy works. And these are the ones I like, because their message is clear coherent with their product and they have a subtle beauty. Even in the case of cheesy candle bind, it looks incredibly simple and beautiful.

• The Makery
  A naming & branding project for a creative consultancy with a primary focus on hand-crafted models.
  
  

  
  
• The Makery is a creative consultancy with a primary focus on hand-crafted models, installation design and art direction. Apart from commercial projects, The Makery endeavours to be a provider of workshops for students in a bid to spur creativity within local youths.
  
  As a company that engages in a multitude of services, the challenge was to create a name and a modern, attractive & versatile identity that would do two things:
  
  1. Be muted enough to be applied over a portfolio of works with varied art directions and not steal attention, and yet be strong enough to stand on its own,
  2. Allude to its primary emphasis on craft, and yet avoid the common direction that other entities revolving craft would commonly take - no explicit usage of scissors, papercuts, paint, glue & so on.
  
  By working closely with the client, we arrived at The Makery: When one thinks of a bakery, one pictures oven-baked pastries lovingly prepared by hand. The Makery, on the other hand, produces stunning pieces of hand-crafted art.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  and I believe a really genious one TRAVALENT:
  
  
  
  
  
  Cutting edge technology was used to extract a single tetrahedral cell from a tetrahedral pyramid. After prolonged experiments with multiplication and mutation of the cell, the Trivalent pattern was finally created.
  
  With the help of precise analysis mechanisms and data mining techniques, the pattern was further developed and perfected into what we have today in front of us.
  
  
  
  The logo is adapted for all sizes, keeping the distinct pattern and colors.
