About Altavita Visual Identity Design

The Altavita Visual Branding project employs an isometric geometric form inspired by architectural drawings to symbolize transition and invitation. The design reflects architectural depth while maintaining clarity and simplicity. A vertical composition emphasizes balance and proportion, while the red, black and gray palette communicates strength, precision and neutrality. The identity extends to stationery, packaging and digital media, ensuring consistency across applications and delivering a timeless professional presence with minimal expression.

Interviews

Grand Interview

The Altavita Visual Identity Design has earned well-deserved recognition at the A' Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design Award, and what strikes many observers immediately is how the isometric geometric form simultaneously evokes the discipline of architectural draftsmanship and the restraint of graphic minimalism. Could you walk us through the precise moment when you understood that an isometric structure was the right visual language to carry the spirit of a brand rooted in elevated interior architecture, and what it felt like to see that singular decision holding the entire identity together in its final form?

The direction became clear when I stopped thinking about the logo as a separate graphic element and started looking more carefully at the architecture itself. AltaVita is an interior architecture brand, so I wanted the identity to come from the same visual world rather than simply adding an architectural symbol to it.I began reducing architectural perspective and spatial forms into simple geometry. The isometric structure gave me exactly what I was looking for. It could suggest space, volume and architecture while still remaining simple enough to work as a strong graphic symbol.That was the important moment for me, because the idea did not stop at the logo. The same geometry could continue into layouts, typography, patterns and other applications, so the identity started to grow naturally from one central idea. Seeing that happen is always one of the most satisfying parts of a project for me. When one simple decision begins to solve several different problems at the same time, I usually know I have found the right direction.

One of the most compelling conversations in contemporary branding practice involves how a visual identity can carry spatial and cultural intelligence without becoming overly literal or decorative. In the Altavita Visual Identity Design, the translation of isometric perspective from the world of architectural drawing into logo form appears almost inevitable in hindsight. How did you navigate the fine line between referencing architectural depth with genuine conviction and ensuring the identity remained immediately legible and commercially persuasive for Altavita's audience of architects, designers, and builders?

The challenge was to avoid creating a logo that looked like a drawing of a building. I wanted the identity to feel connected to architecture without becoming descriptive.For me, architecture is not only about buildings. It is also about structure, proportion and organization. Instead of illustrating an architectural object, I focused on these underlying principles.The isometric approach helped create a sense of depth and space, but I was careful not to let that become the main story. The logo still needed to function as a strong visual mark, not an architectural illustration.The result is a symbol that suggests space and construction while remaining simple, memorable and commercially effective. This balance helped the identity speak naturally to architects, designers and builders while remaining accessible to a broader audience.I wanted people to recognize a sense of architecture rather than recognize a building. The goal was to communicate the logic and discipline behind architecture, not to illustrate architecture itself.

The Altavita Visual Identity Design was developed through hand-drawn sketches later refined digitally as vector artwork, a process that speaks to a deeply considered relationship between analogue intuition and digital precision. How did this dual-mode working method shape the final character of the identity, and in what ways do you believe this approach produces qualities in the finished mark that a purely screen-based process from the outset would have been unlikely to generate?

I still begin most identity projects with a pencil and paper. Sketching allows me to think freely and explore ideas without being influenced by software tools.The early sketches for Altavita helped me discover relationships between shapes, proportions and spatial forms. Some of the most important decisions were made during this stage, long before I opened any design software.Once the direction became clear, I moved to vector software where the idea could be refined with precision and consistency.I believe this combination is important. Hand sketching encourages discovery, while digital tools provide control and accuracy. If I had started directly on screen, the result might have been technically correct, but it would probably have lost some of the exploration and spontaneity that helped shape the final mark.

Unique Properties
The Altavita Visual Branding project explores the use of architectural logic in graphic design. The logo is constructed with an isometric geometric form that symbolizes transition and invitation. The design reflects architectural depth while preserving clarity and simplicity. The vertical composition emphasizes order and proportion, while the red, black and gray palette communicates strength, precision and neutrality. The identity system extends across stationery, packaging and digital media, ensuring consistency and recognition.
Dimensions & Packaging
Delivered as vector files in AI, PDF and EPS formats in both RGB and CMYK. The logo was designed on a scalable 1:1 square grid. Print applications include A4 letterhead 210 x 297 mm, business cards 90 x 55 mm, envelopes 110 x 220 mm, and notepads 148 x 210 mm. The modular system ensures reliable use across different scales and materials.

Production Technology
The design was developed through hand drawn sketches and refined digitally in Adobe Illustrator as vector artwork. Materials were produced mainly by offset and digital printing, using spot colors red and black together with CMYK applications. Deliverables included letterheads, envelopes, folders, notepads, cards, calendars, and a custom portfolio box. The process emphasized scalability and adaptability across formats.
Design Challenge
The research was exploratory, aiming to link architecture with branding. Methods included client briefing sessions, custom questionnaires to gather expectations and preferences, and analysis of isometric forms and competitors. Tools included sketching and digital modeling. The result was a premium identity aligned with the client vision and grounded in architectural depth.
Research
The research was exploratory, aiming to link architecture with branding. Methods included client briefing sessions, a custom questionnaire to gather expectations and preferences, and analysis of isometric forms and competitors. Tools included sketching and digital modeling. The result was a spatial, premium identity aligned with the client’s vision
Inspiration
The project is inspired by architectural construction drawings and the isometric perspective, which create a sense of transition, movement and invitation. The aim was to translate structural precision into a minimal and timeless visual identity.
Project Duration
The project started in June 2022 in Tehran and was completed in three weeks. All stages of the process, including concept development, client feedback, and final delivery, were carried out locally in Tehran.
Operation Flow
The identity interacts with users across printed and digital touchpoints, including letterheads, cards, packaging, and screens. The consistent vertical logo placement builds recognition and familiarity. The isometric structure captures attention, while the color and layout enhance clarity. The result is a trustworthy presence with a strong and minimal visual language.
