Paris Metropole - branding Paris for the 21st Century

Branding for Paris Metropole, part of the Grand Paris urbanisation initiative. The brand is based on the superimposition at an equal scale of the different departments making up the metropolis.
Paris, the world's No.1 tourist destination, has suffered in terms of building a genuine contemporary identity, due to its all too well known landmark - the Eiffel Tower, whose image is so synonymous with the city as to handicap any attempt to create and deploy a powerful destination brand. This design does manage to make a break with cliché imagery and successfully communicate the dynamism, diversity and vitality of a 21st Century metropolis.

3D branding/merchandising/store design for T-Magi

We are currently working on a retail branding/merchandising concept and exploring the relationship between the brand, the retail environment and signage.
The combined brand and store design for T-Magi in Copenhagen by We Architecture is a superb solution and a brilliant illusion whereby the brand becomes the shop and the sign. It is reminiscent of the perforated exterior skin of the Chanel building in Ginza by Kumiko Inui which incorporated embedded fibre optics to light up the facade at night.
