MOVIMENTE, AN UNCEASING PROJECT

Working for Linda was easy, although fitness, yoga, Pilates and eastern philosophy have never been my bread and butter. The Movimente’s logo was born from a little hunch I had in front of a soy cappuccino when I was in a campsite in Marina di Ravenna, during some nights I’m ashamed of and some days lacking of sleep. Normal things have never been my thing sadly.

I was looking for a symbol that could immediately recall dynamism and lightness, sporty but relaxed positions, creating sinuous shapes coordinated with the trademark’s text. Doodling all over her name’s initial I got something. Then I reworked and rationalized it until I reached the shape that I had in mind.

the starting point, a letter M, but also a person standing up and stretching with an athletic movement.

Since the beginning the starting point for the creation of Movimente’s logo was the soft and comforting oval shape. From that, I provided regularity to the logo in all its parts, regulating the shapes and making them balanced with each other in order to create the final logo of the brand. 

the ovals used as a starting point for the creation of the logo and the characters that are part of the brand.
The ovals, similar with each other, for dimensions and measures, that the brand is made of.
The ovals composition to create the final logo, highlighted in black in overlapping shapes.
The definitive logo of Movimente, with the typical antropomorphised “M”, and the green Pantone colour as reference.
Proxima nova is the font used for the headline of the logo. Here I display the entire font family, designed as reference font for the coordinated communication of the brand.

After finishing the logo, in the middle of a joyous euphoria, Linda decided to entrust me with the creation of a tree to be painted on a wall of the studio. At first, I decided to create a network of people placed in different yoga positions, united in a kind of huge group hug. Then I started to create a series of human figures taking inspiration from the positions of this discipline.

I started by pulling together all these shapes to form a tangled human network to create the tree. However, its complexity wasn’t the best both for an aesthetic and a realization purpose.

In a glimpse of unexpected intelligence, I realized that I could get a much better effect by summing only some of these figures in a larger format. In this way I could obtain a much less elaborate tree. The result was way better and simpler than the previous one (sometimes beautiful things are also the easiest ones…).

the finale composition that will constitute the yoga tree, with various human shapes in athletic position taken from the discipline of eastern meditation.

SOMETHING ELSE?

Yes. Linda and I didn’t stop. We developed other pretty things for her events’ communication. We wanted to attract all the people in need of sport and wellness to her gym, which was growing thanks to her constant commitment and her ability to find competent teachers for every discipline together with satisfied customers.

For these reasons we created a flier with all the courses held in her gym and an other one dedicated to Yoga for children. The first one has a very standard look following the logo’s style and linked to the institutional communication of Movimente. The second flier is way more playful, lighter but always linked to Movimente’s style.  

The front of the institutional flier with a stick figure doing yoga. the green color, typical of Movimente, rules on the icones, the contact information and other details about the activities.
The back of the instituitional Movimente flier with timetables and dates of the courses, photos of happy customers and other details about teachers, excercises.
A detail of the icons on the pamphlet. They were created ad hoc in order to give the leaflet the maximum recognizability.

Here is the kids flyer!

That’s it, I hope you liked it. Do sport.
