( task )

Halden grew from three architects to forty and still used the logo a founder drew in 2009. Clients kept mixing them up with two other studios on the same street.

Halden Studio stationery: an orange notebook, orange and white business cards and an envelope
An orange Halden tote bag on a hook and a folded white T-shirt with a small orange mark

( solution )

We started from the door handle the studio draws for every building. Its profile became the mark, the grid of the website and the cut of the business cards.
