Visual communication and art
Ilmalan Aura
How can we describe the atmosphere of a building, when even the cornerstone is yet to be laid?
This was the premise when we started a property branding project with Hartela, a Finnish construction company strongly involved in developing the Ilmala neighbourhood.
Our work in this project:
- Property branding
- Visual identity
- Graphic design
- Workshop facilitation
- Brand photography
- Concept development and content creation
- Web design
In workshops, we dug deep into Hartela offices in general as well as the development project in question. We also had discussions with the architects to get a thorough understanding of the ideas behind the design. Hartelas objectives, architects’ vision and the tenants’ needs laid the foundation for the brand, which we concretised into verbal and visual messages. After weighing several different options, we named the property Ilmalan Aura (aura = plow in Finnish). The name reflects the dynamic and propellant design as well as Hartela’s ambition to create a forward-thinking base for future work life.
