About BTY Brand Identity 标志与应用系统

BTY品牌识别系统是为BTY集团打造的一套标志及其应用方案。标志图形以分析性与数学化的手法诠释了大三角帆展开瞬间的形态,同时也呼应了大三角帆为帆船竞速运动带来的颠覆性变革。该标志象征着一个由人引领技术的未来。设计历经三百余张铅笔草图,随后在数字媒介中不断精炼,最终达成预期的几何形态。黑色为主色调,并以明快的色彩加以辅助。黑白形式使其能够便捷地在多种承印材质上复制呈现。

Unique Properties: BTY’s new logomark is an analytical & mathematical interpretation of the moment a Gennaker Sail gets deployed. It is also inspired by the disruption that a Gennaker sail brought to the sailboat racing world.

This logomark represents the excitement of a
more purposeful future, a future of people leading technology, not the other way around.
Dimensions & Packaging: A brand identity built using black as the main colour, supported by bright, vivid colours that stand out in an industry full of muted colours
Tags: logo, brand identity, logomark, symbol, graphics, layout
Production Technology: Over 300 sketches done in pencil first. Further refinement in electronic media until desired geometry was achieved.
Design Challenge: We had a clear vision that we needed the brand identity to represent that perfect marriage between technology and the people leading it. We knew the sail racing world was the greatest source of inspiration as radical changes have taken place in sail design.
Research: In growing cities worldwide, BTY’s award-winning independent professional services push the built environment forward through viable projects that provide the foundation for thriving and sustainable communities by focusing on:

The Future. With the exponential revolution that computing power and artificial intelligence are bringing to our lives, we need to ensure that all decisions shaping the communities of the future are rooted in:

Real Intelligence. BTY takes a stand against artificial intelligence by understanding that it is a tool and not the end game. The critical decisions shaping humanity’s future will have to come from:

Human Capital. BTY believes in people that act locally yet think globally. People that are hungry to make the world a better place and have the drive and intelligence to do so. BTY believes that its role in shaping the communities of the future is to serve as a:

Catalyst. BTY understands its purpose to be an agent of progress and innovation by providing real intelligence to transform the built environment for people, the planet, and collective prosperity.
Inspiration: BTY’s new logomark is an analytical & mathematical interpretation of the moment a Gennaker Sail gets deployed. It is also inspired by the disruption that a Gennaker sail brought to the sailboat racing world.
This logomark represents the excitement of a
more purposeful future, a future of people leading technology, not the other way around.
Project Duration: On going project. New brand identity launched in January. A few different brand touchpoint are still under development.
For example, the revised website is not complete yet. This brand identity is being rolled out across four continents.
Operation Flow: By being designed in black and white the logo can be implemented in a different set of substrates and colours that are appropriate not just to all cultures, but it also becomes easy to reproduce everywhere regardless of any technical restrictions by printers in each location.
