BP&O Collections — Minimalist Brand Identity Design
Opinion by Richard Baird Posted 8 December 2016
A collection of some of the more reductive brand identity programmes reviewed and published on BP&O. Featured studios include Mucho, Brief, and Neue, and cover a variety of clients, industries, and categories, from fashion and tech start-ups to architectural studios and product design companies. The work featured is reductive but well-intentioned, aesthetically restrained and communicatively precise. These often rely on simple forms, few type choices and solid colour. Be sure to click each image to read about the intentions of each design.
