FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

COMO, Italy, April 20, 2023 /DesignNewswire/ A' Design Award & Competition has confirmed the Bronze A' Design Award in the Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design category for It Is In Your Genes Dynamic Identity by Bianka Foldi and Robert Valoczi, designed for Genecontact. The award was conferred within the 2022 - 2023 A' Design Award & Competition and was determined through blind peer review by an international grand jury panel of established academics, design professionals and press members, who scored anonymized entries against predetermined criteria.

What the Bronze A' Design Award Means

The Bronze A' Design Award is given to outstanding designs that showcase a high degree of creativity and practicality. It recognizes the dedication and skill of designers who produce work that stands out for its thoughtful development and innovative use of materials and technology. These designs are acknowledged for their professional execution and potential to influence industry standards positively. Winning this award highlights the designer's ability to blend form and function effectively, offering solutions that enhance people's lives and wellbeing.

Regarding It Is In Your Genes Dynamic Identity

This brand identity was created for a genotyping service, by which predisposition to possible genetic diseases can be detected. Just like the DNA structure, the design concept was also built upon a system of codes, namely specially designed Morse codes representing the letters of alphabet. Any word can be visualized this way, turning a static logo into a dynamic identity. The logo, which is the name of the Client written by the codes, takes the double-helical structure shape of the DNA. This is how the business of the Client is reflected both conceptually and visually in the identity.

Design Details

Unique Properties
Given the identity was made for a genotyping service, the concept was also built upon a system of codes. Specially designed Morse codes were created representing the letters of the alphabet. Any word can visualized this way, turning a static logo to a dynamic identity. The logo, which is the name of the Client written by the codes, takes the shape of the double-helical structure of DNA. This is how the business of the Client is reflected both conceptually and visually in the identity.
Inspiration
The Client is a recently established company offering genotyping service that enables customers to discover eventual genetic diseases. They required a brand identity that clearly communicates what their operation stands for. The idea was inspired by the DNA structure that contains genetic codes. A unique alphabet of Morse codes was designed, by which the word Genecontact was written, defining the actual logo. Codes in the logo are arranged to resemble the shape of a double-helical structure.
Realization and Technology
• The codes that make up the logo are designed to form the shape of the DNA's double-helical structure. • This iconic form of the logo is reflected as a pattern in further identity elements. • The bold and refined nature of the brand’s visual world characterises the elegant box for the sampling tools, in which the customer can preserve his, her DNA as a lasting memory. • The box also contains a customized patient card, with the customer’s name written by the alphabet of Morse codes.
Project Duration and Location
The project started in July 2021 October in Budapest. The website development is still ongoing.
