Volocopter
Volocopter is developing vertical take-off, fully electric multicopter aircrafts for passenger transport. We were commissioned to define the brand image and to strengthen the brand perception.
With a brief to establish a new identity and set up the aesthetic framework – we created the new CI, developed the image concept and defined the overall brand standards for Volocopter.
The aviation sector served as inspiration for the visual fire construction kit - we were inspired by the design language within a classic aircraft cockpit. Graphic elements of displays such as the altimeter or the speed indicator are reflected in the brand design and are used to reinforce the brand statement.
We also created the livery of the Volocopter and the iconography within the guidelines of the Road and Transport Authority of Dubai for the first autonomous flight within urban environment.
From the stationery, 3D modeling and preparation, the livery of the Volocopter, the new website to the image concept, image production and campaigns, we have established comprehensive brand standards.
Based ion the new positioning we created an out of home campaign meant to appeal to a very specialized group of engineers within the aviation sector.
