THE LOGOS FROM C-ROOTS PART 2

THE LOGOS FROM C-ROOTS PART 2 C-Roots considers the corporate identity to be the engine driving every company. The potential powerhouse that is much more than just a logo. So isn’t there an apparent paradox to be bringing out a logo book again? It certainly highlights just one facet of the many-sided corporate identity. But on the other hand, the logo is its most simple and basic expression. And that’s precisely why we’re doing it.

‘The Logos’ part 2, is a collection of specials from C-Roots’ past and present. It includes the golden oldie, Himmelblau. There’s even the rejected logo for the Austrian ski resort Lofer, that we still want to include it because it conveys the philosophy behind the ‘roots’ so perfectly.

CLOSE THE GAP BETWEEN IDENTITY AND BRAND Circumstances, surroundings, zeitgeist – everything is in flux. The only constant a company has is its identity, even if this manifests itself in ever changing forms. And an entirely new focus or vision can propel an overhaul of a company style.

Identity is more a process than a static given. You can develop new products and services, your production methods can change, or you can find new partners. With so many variables, it’s crucial to make the binding factor all the more identifiable and visible. By using identity as the organisation’s engine, you reduce the distance between who you really are and how you want to be seen.

Result: your ideal image. Admittedly, logos are simplified, but they’re also the most iconic image.

SPLENDID HAPPENINGS Splendid Happenings is about more than just lifestyle. It aims to bring about a rethink in our attitudes towards aging. Central concepts are health, activity levels and happiness.

In a nutshell: shake off those outdated social clichĂŠs and focus more on the strength and vitality of the individual.

Positive, with heart and soul, and ambition.

C-ROOTS C-Roots is based in Amsterdam.

This agency has made its name as a specialist in identity, strategy and creativity. It knows that when it comes to organisations – whatever the size – the roots will always be a source of inspiration.

HARTTAAL Whatever your question, Harttaal (= heart language) will help you find the answer. You’re doing some soul-searching about your work, relationships, health or faith? You want to write a book or blog? Then listen to yourself and write down what you hear.

It’s not about the writing itself, writing is a means to discovering what you think, feel and know intuitively. You let your head and your heart do the talking.

Connect the two and you’ll be amazed at what you’ll find out.

PARRHESIAN With the end of the industrial age, we’re moving into the age of consciousness, so we need to reprogram ourselves and reconnect to our (higher) purpose in life. Parrhesian helps to reprogram and support organisations as they transform, by supporting the individual (leaders’) transformations that build the organisation.

Product presentation and look and feel are all key ingredients in the brand experience. After all, only a small part of the taste experience is based on real taste; smell, texture and appearance play key roles.

HvA opleiding Media, Informatie en Communicatie Visual devices are powerful symbols that are to be found anywhere and everywhere. They’re used by companies but also by countries, sports clubs and magazines in their communications.

And why are they so powerful?

Because our brains process visual information 60,000 times faster than text.

And if you’ve got a lot to say, then all the better. For the Media, Information and Communication course, we opted for the falcon as symbol so that you immediately know who’s behind the message.

53

54

HvA opleiding Communicatie A visual device is a potent symbol that can pop up anywhere and leaves no doubt about what the brand represents.

It’s remarkable what kinds of special associative combinations underlie brands and their symbols. Playboy bunnies, Budweiser frogs, the purple Milka cow is chocolate and what about the rag doll, Artis the Partis? It’s funny really, animals are a popular choice because of the characters we may associate with them. No surprise therefore that the red deer was chosen as the symbol for the Communication course, CO.

MEIBERGER HOLZBAU There’s something authentic, warm, natural and honest about wood. And it smells good. The Meiberger Holzbau identity is all about contrasting symbols. Craftsmanship and innovation, family and practicality, local and international markets, efficiency and passion, talent and experience, etc.

These characteristics don’t need to be explicitly laid out in communications.

They are implicit in Meiberger and make it a unique company.

ONE WEAR Expert dedication definitely yields results – patented, technological advances with powerful no-glue, high-modulus, carbon solutions create single-piece sails that weigh less, but make a big difference.

And Onesail understands sailors, knows the elements and grasps what’s needed for a sense of harmony between the two. So with so much knowledge of the demands of sailing and the challenges made on sailing materials, a Onewear clothing brand was nothing more than a logical progression.

LOFERER ALM-BAHNEN In recent years there have been explosive developments in alpine ski resorts. Everything is speeding up and experiences have to provide a major adrenaline rush. But not in the village of Lofer. So brace yourself for something different, simple and peaceful, back to skiing the way skiing used to be.

A traditional Austrian ski village.

Nostalgic authenticity instead of passing trends.
