The lower-case letter "b", even in its abstracted form on the brand icon, represents the balloon of speech merging with the clouds of thinking, forming a brand in which the concept of dialogue and new ideas about the universe of brands are united. In addition to these two main aspects of thought and speech, the brand sought to express a simple, interactive image that provided reflection.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Brand Thinkers is the most genuine discussion group on Branding in Brazil that meets monthly in the city of São Paulo for talks about brand design, best practices and trends of brands and always with a name of reference in the subject, idealized by the master Marcos Hiller.

His Visual Identity was created with strong proportional, symbolic and flexible work.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The project does not have a specific size or measure because it is a brand. But, for sizing purposes, we can understand that their proportional ratios maintain in Phi, which is approximately 1,618, the Gold Ratio.

Fortunately, the results were excellent and we achieved the goal of a remarkable Visual Identity, with the ability to generate discussions and thus strengthen the Brand Thinkers group.
