Arrels (roots in English) is a Spanish shoe brand, established by cousins, friends and partners Javier & Pepe Llaudet, and inspired by the Mediterranean, its traditions, rhythm, colour and creative atmosphere. Javier & Pepe also draw on the city of Barcelona (the place they want to be), the countryside (where they are from), and their passion for music.
These inspirations make their way into Arrels’ new brand identity, created by graphic design studio Hey, through colour contrast, the irregular texture of torn paper, the traditional flourishes of a serif and the modernity of a sans-serif. This new identity links brochures, packaging, business cards and website.
