Manufacturing and sustainability branding. What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think about this? Are you thinking of big wind turbines? Or maybe a forest? Or maybe you’re thinking about that little green recycling triangle where the arrows follow each other? I wouldn’t be surprised if any of these images sprung to mind. However, it’s all a bit cliche isn’t it.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

Flexible visual identities are nothing new: in an age where pretty much any identity is as prominent on digital platforms as physical or static ones (if not more), identity design has become a living, breathing discipline rather than a fixed set of rules around logo usage.
