Abbie Whitehead Architects – Rebrand Brand identity & Design

A new identity for architectural practice AWA.

We crafted a modern and cohesive identity with a minimalistic aesthetic that mirrors the precision of the architecture practice. The website boasts an intuitive interface, prioritising visual elements to showcase the firm's portfolio with clarity. The logo, simple yet sophisticated, serves as a visual anchor, while a muted colour palette adds a timeless quality. The stationery design maintains consistency, featuring the logo prominently and emphasising a clean layout across various collateral. This rebrand embodies a harmonious blend of minimalism and meticulous attention to detail, communicating professionalism and a commitment to architectural excellence.
