I.C. 1101, the largest galaxy in the universe

01 About Us Design Overview
INTRODUCTION

ABOUT US

The prevailing cosmological model known as the Big Bang theorizes that the universe was formed more than 13.9 billion years ago. It is absolutely incredible that it was initially a dot that expanded and blossomed into galaxies, stars, planets, and more universes as we know it.

We are the company born from the stars. Our aim: to show the flowing artistic side of what is strictly written in the books. We are an Asian-based streetwear brand identity that takes normal out from the equation. Our line consists of casual wear that catches attention with primarily decoration.

Inspiration comes from not only the contemporary art and modernity such as minimlism and abstract, but of an intergalactic design, that glorifies the complexities of space and allows curiosity for those who wonder what is beyond the stars.

Our name is inspired by the largest known galaxy yet to be recorded to date: IC 1101.

DESIGN OVERVIEW

The goal for this brand identity is to make it inclusive but also unique.Many styles of today such as Korean-style and Japanese casual wear are two of the biggest influences towards modern-day clothing in the western world. With an ecofriendly company, our clothing will be soft but firm. In the streetwear style, it is a casual fashion style that first became popular in the 1990s. This comfortable yet trendy clothing incorporates hip-hop culture and skater style with a cyberpunk attribute.

When people wear the brand, they not only feel very comfortable, but also empowering, as if the whole universe is inside them. This is especially for young people. Many younger individual groups are nowadays very anxious, and often depressed by worry of life’s expectations and instances; therefore, our company ensures others to feel like they are not just a tiny speck in the galaxy, but a significant human being who stands out from the rest. Ultimately, to make them feel important.

Welcome to infinity.

Primary Typeface

Our main typeface is Bahnschrift, a typeface created by Aaron Bell. This typeface is a mimilastic sans-serif that best represents our brand’s composed personality. We wanted the typeface to reflect the simplicity of the logo to be easily recognizable and let the design complexities of our clothing do the talking. It is the typeface for our logomark. The typeface, Proxima Nova, serves as the secondary typeface due to its similar simplistic sans-serif personality utilized mainly in our body and non-title texts. Though handdrawn, the number 1’s in 1101is based from the typeface’s number 1 glyph. It is also perfect for our interglactic inspiration with nova meaning “star”.

LOGO DESCRIPTION

The zero in 1101 is replaced with a saturn-shaped planet, which identifies as our main logo icon. It can be used by itself as well.

The equilateral square format pays homage to Asian-style rectangular-square shape, such as the neon hung-up signs in Tokyo.

It is our company’s only logotype. It can be removed.

There are several theories from maths, quantum physics that draw conclusions as to the existence of multiple universes. There is a high possibility that the knowledge about the universe we live in must be just one of its kind.
