About Coreintive 企业形象识别

Coreintive 是为一家设计机构打造的企业形象识别设计。品牌名称取自 "Core in Creative"（创意之核）的缩写。在文字标志中，末尾字母 E 经过镜像处理，与首字母 C 相接，构成括号造型；括号内置入一个圆形，象征其中所蕴含的"核心"。这一圆形寓意着可能性、独特性、延展性与整合性等价值理念。整套识别系统以字母 C、O、E 为基础，发展出三种图形母题语言。该项目于大韩民国完成。

Production Technology: We give shape to directions the brand views and found the brand's identity through varied questions and attention such as potential, intrinsic, expandable, immanent, integrated characters that the brand has. Based on that, we put the brand's original core, and we establish brand identity design to let the brand communicate with the world.
Design Challenge: We paid special attention to give shape to the thoughts we had to express overall design. We refined and simplified our thoughts rather than simply make beautiful things aesthetically. And we paid particular attention and put effort to find the right point that thoughts matched exactly as design.
Research: To create the concept of 'contain', we reversed the last letter 'E' from CoreintivE to the left and right and combined the inverted E with the first letter, C.
Afterward, we expressed core be contained in that space as a circle. It represents the essential value that businesses must have in order to become a good brand, such as possibility, uniqueness, scalability, philosophy, integration, etc.
Inspiration: Coreintive was developed as an abbreviation of "Core in Creative." Beyond merely a design agency that seeks aesthetic, our mission is to identify the core values of client companies and to integrate them into convincing brand designs. This will is shown through the logo and slogan of Coreintive. In order to visualize the concept idea of containing in the logo, the last letter of the wordmark was mirrored to form a bracket together with the first letter.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2017 and finished in August 2018 in Republic of Korea.
Operation Flow: Understanding services a brand provides, a way the brand looks at the world and a strategy of how to convey them are needed to let the brand communicate with the world. our process for this proceeds with communicating with clients, considering inside and out, doing a great deal of research, creative imagination. We give shape to directions the brand views and found the brand's identity through variated eyes and questions such as potential, expandable, integrable characters that the brand has.
