Cascina Blu is an association for autistic children located in the province of Milan, currently one of the largest facilities in Lombardy. Our collaboration with Cascina Blu involved creating a visual identity that would highlight its size and significance in the region.

One of the main goals of the client was to emphasize their mission of helping autistic children integrate into society through workshops that teach them various skills. Inclusivity was a fundamental aspect that the client wanted to communicate. To better understand autism, we worked closely with doctors and psychologists. Through our research, we discovered that the color blue has a calming effect on people with autism, and abstract images are not preferred by them. Therefore, we chose to figuratively represent a child in the logo, incorporating a simple dot to symbolize the entrance to the farmhouse itself.

A crucial aspect of the visual communication strategy was the close collaboration with the children during the drawing workshops. The illustrations created by the children became a key element of the communication, symbolizing inclusivity and reflecting the client's vision.

Hey Objeto is a new shop that serves as a platform for objects made by Mexican artists/designers. The selected products are functional and ornamental, and are mainly thought to be used at home. We developed a visual identity that bases its communication in a cultural lifestyle; in a way we were aiming to create relationships for future collaborations. Finally we set out the personality to be inspired by the architecture of Luis Barragán and to reflect an accessible, collaborative, contemporary and mostly, Mexican side.

The shapes and colors abstracted from Luis Barragán's works are the roots of the identity, they give dynamism and versatility to the brand. The contemporary as the main premise in the visual elements. We decided to avoid superfluous decoration, but send clear messages instead. Honesty in communication and aesthetics. We got play, creativity and community by the different interactions of the geometries.

Only is a new digital design and brand consultancy.

The logotype uses a bespoke version of Buenos Aires that sees the lowercase ‘L’ adjusted to have no tail. The result is a simple logotype with subtle character and unmistakable personality — the playfulness of the ‘y’ balancing adjacent characters to soften the sentiment of the word.

The rest of the identity uses LL Circular — a more useable geometric with similar values, in a single weight across website and business cards.
