Mark and visual identityProject

Sillbeam Architecture

A visual identity for an architecture bureau. The mark is a beam on a post: two lines and a module of air between them. Everything else stands on one grid and one typeface: the letterhead, the business card, the plaque by the entrance, a portfolio spread and the title block of a drawing.

The style guide

Six sheets of one format: the mark, the grid, the letterhead, the plaque, the portfolio and the title block.

  • Mark

    A beam on a post: a mark of two lines, the lettering and how it is built on a grid.

  • Grid and type

    Six columns, margins and three sizes of text.

  • Card, letterhead, envelope

    Black on white, everything on one grid.

  • Plaque

    A narrow plaque by the entrance and its drawing with dimensions.

  • Portfolio

    A spread: photos of the house and the model, captions on the grid.

  • Title block

    The bureau’s corner block on a sheet: project, sheet, scale, date.

What we made

  • The mark, a beam on a post, and how it is built in modules
