About FHG Brand Identità aziendale

FHG Brand è un'identità aziendale progettata per un produttore di vetro elettrocromico a stato solido. Il logo è composto da quattro strati di forme in vetro che, combinandosi, danno vita alle lettere FH, tratte dal nome originario dell'azienda. La trasparenza, le forme e la stratificazione degli elementi in vetro riflettono le proprietà dei prodotti. Il marchio, piatto e moderno, restituisce a chi lo osserva un'impressione tridimensionale. L'identità è stata inoltre realizzata come installazione d'interni di circa tre metri per ogni lato, presentando insieme il logo e i prodotti in vetro.
