Building a fluid, dynamic but recognizable system for the brand.
The visual system was built around a wordmark with concrete edges, evolving into a dynamic structure called "The One," responsive to music and adaptable across media. This system included particles for effects, typing cursors, stamps, frames, and audio spectrums. Extended patterns, inspired by piano tiles, were designed for print and non-motion media to maintain brand consistency. Artists were integrated into the system with a flexible color identity approach, allowing each to choose a unique color tied to their projects. The merch design aimed for stylish, event-ready pieces that reflect the brand’s simplicity and musical heritage.
