Tasks

With the change in ownership, the the brand experience should be sharpened. The following goals were defined: Create
.   a clear brand
.   a clearer visual differentiation from the competition
.   a brand experience that also appeals to the B2C market besides the B2B one.
.   an overall high quality experience

Berlin Understatement

Creation

The redesign: understated premium, dedicated to those who appreciate individuality. The renewed brand is rough, edgy and bulky and yet at the same time sensitive. There are different tonalities for different eyewear collections or messages supported by the pure black and white coloring and the subtle color spectrum of concrete, cobblestone, Plattenbau, Wilhelminian architecture, tiles of subway stations, Berlin winter sky or by the loud, vibrant orange. Stories show vivid but also quiet, unobtrusive micro-moments. The overall impression is always of a high quality product.
