Concrete Society Identity & Collateral
We were invited by the Concrete Society to renew the organisation’s visual identity. Founded in 1966, we were conscious of the need to respect the history of the brand while updating it to appeal to a younger audience Our research highlighted the need to communicate the key benefits of the organisation : Technical expertise, and Community. In our moodboards and concept proposals, we put forward a number of ways we could reflect these themes. It was our ‘radial lines’ monogram concept that best captured this balance. The overall aesthetic was technical and authoritative, with the radial lines representing the decentralised nature of the society’s member organisations, with a hidden ’S’ at its core We then built a clean, authoritative visual identity around the logo, with a striking colour palette taken from the original 60 year old crest. Hero image selection, typography, and our suite of bespoke icons all reflected these key themes.
