Naked Castle Visual Signage System

Naked Castle

Naked Castle is a signage system designed for a historic castle hotel on Moganshan. The design pairs a coat of arms with Art Deco lettering, and the geometric figures and lines follow proportions close to the golden ratio. British elements such as a hoof, a shield and a streamer are merged in the coat of arms, while icons of a king and a queen wearing crowns appear on the signs. The coat of arms was cast in low melting point metal, then hand polished and colored. The signs use forged iron and local wood to resist the outdoor mountain climate.

Pagoda Corporate Identity

Pagoda

Pagoda is a corporate identity created for a Chinese fruit company. The identity is built around two monkey mascots, drawn first as pencil drafts and then developed with digital design software. Monkeys were chosen because they are linked with fruit in Chinese culture, where they also symbolise wisdom and courage. The mascots dance through the four seasons, and the flowers around them change with each mood. The colours refer to flowers, seasons and nature. Printing applies ultraviolet coating and hot stamping. The aim is to present Asian culture with respect for natural life.

Carimbo Stamp

Carimbo

A stamp to identify its owner and his work and take it everywhere. At first, the intention was to find a way of approaching the offline world. Something like a business card, only classier, cheaper and environment friendly. So a stamp (carimbo) was the choice. A signature. Its inner part represents Igor's confusing and beautiful creative process, while the round frame wraps it up in fluidity and gives it purpose. These two combined build a texture the ink can flow through, providing the perfect support to his personal brand. At last, Minion Pro gracefully writes the contact information.

Mrs T is a corporate design for a fine food manufactory that uses tea as an ingredient in baked goods and delicacies.

DuePiuTre – Piu che Hamburger Visual Identity

DuePiuTre – Piu che Hamburger

DuePiùTre is a small bistrot offering Not just Hamburgers, but also pastrami and beer can chicken, all revisited with fresh and genuine Italian products.

To compensate for the invented name of the place, the design includes a chef’s hat for the bulldog and a pay-off that try to convey the idea of an establishment offering food in a more direct way.

Fattoria il Gambero Visual Identity

Fattoria il Gambero

Fattoria il Gambero placed itself on the market with a dynamic and contemporary approach, in order to enhance its own history, which dates back to 1880. This is the reason for the trademark of the stylized “G”; it conveys the sense of a corkscrew uncorking a bottle and resembles the road leading to the company. The sans serif font adds substance to this somewhat abstract symbol and links its ancient past inexorably to the present. The colors give the entire image an innovative touch, while certain characteristics of the past are preserved, for instance, in the embossed paper of the Brochure.

Le Coffret - Chambres D'Hôtes

Le Coffret is a charming design bed and breakfast in the heart of Valle d'Aosta. The project was conceived in absolute respect of the authentic style: therefore the stone walls, wooden beams and antique furniture. A circle symbolizing the sky over the triangle representing the mountain, where the B&B is located, from the idea of the ascent of man into the sky. An Onciale font revised in a modern version to remember the Celtic origins of the Valley rightly balances and supports a strong and important symbol to finally obtain a logo that is easy to identify and easily catches the eye.
