Production Logo for Studio229
Inspired by Fritz Langs early scifi epic "Metropolis" and the roaring ingenuity of the 1920's!
We needed an identity for our studio that captured not only our culture but the quality of our work. The under-city representing our passion for work and industrius natures. The gleaming skyreaching topside being our ambitions and penchant to embrace new technologies. There are quite a lot of easter-eggs and influences sprinkled throughout.
As our studio took on a VR focus this was later converted 360 (2016).
