DESIGN NAME: Mediana Studio
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Brand Identity
INSPIRATION: All creative people feel the need to express their ideas, so for the Mediana logo I was inspired by the creativity used in the ancient Japanese technique of Origami to build a minimalist speech balloon that becomes the main branding element for Mediana.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Mediana icon is a geometric composition that seems to float in the air. The green-toned icon is inspired by an origami speech balloon that at the same time suggests a letter M inside. The use of Origami represents the magic of creativity and the 3 shades of green the diversity of the minds that work at Mediana. The Mediana Word-mark is expressed with the Museo 700 typography designed by Jos Buivenga and just below it, and aligned to the right is the Tagline Studio typed in Museo 100.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: the Mediana logo is intended to be used on both digital and print platforms. The logo is available in different versions including the vector file that allows versatile use and excellent quality regardless of the size in which it is printed.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: United States 2022
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: After multiple sketches, Mediana's logo was produced in Adobe Illustrator under a grid that allowed for a balanced geometric order.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: This logo has several versions that includes a Monochrome version that can be used on dark or light backgrounds as needed. This allows users to print the logo in different media without losing readability.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: For this project I carried out a deep investigation of the different companies that provide services for social media, also the trends in digital platforms and apps. I used my inspiration in Origami to create the Median icon along with a clean and friendly typography. This effort led me to design a logo to be used in the different print and digital media in which Mediana intends to leave its mark in a memorable and recognizable way.
CHALLENGE: The most challenging part of this project was taking the design to the minimum expression without losing the essence of the message.
