It seemed necessary to counterbalance this with an aesthetic that emphasizes lightness and flexibility.<\/p>\n A certain roundness which corresponds better to the region of Brittany and to the imagery of triskells, marine knots... The building hidden by the train station, must open up towards the heart of the city. For that, Les Champs Libres had to acquire a memorable and recognizable visual identity that would assert its presence.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_gallery type=\"image_grid\" images=\"46396,46394,46398\" img_size=\"full\" onclick=\"\"][vc_single_image image=\"46400\" img_size=\"full\"][vc_gallery type=\"image_grid\" images=\"46403,46405\" img_size=\"full\" onclick=\"\"][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/3\"][vc_column_text el_class=\"dateportfolio\"][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"2\/3\"][vc_column_text]\n The new visual identity of Les Champs Libres<\/a> had to set up a clear brand architecture with its constituents. The logos of the Library and Museum of Brittany were also composed in Minimum in its original version. Only Espaces des Sciences had its own full-fledged logotype with no link to the other entities. This split hampered the recognizability of the project and made the understanding of the place more complex.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nAn architectural project that reflects Britan territory?<\/h2>\n
Unite and federate around a common logotype<\/h2>\n
\nIt was important to conceive a warm identity with a high visibility that lends itself well to the implementation of a strong interior and exterior signage. A brand with the image of a welcoming place, which takes part in the major social and environmental issues of the city for today and tomorrow.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_single_image image=\"46408\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/2\"][vc_single_image image=\"46410\" img_size=\"full\"][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/2\"][vc_single_image image=\"46392\" img_size=\"large\"][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/3\"][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"2\/3\"][vc_column_text]\nAn existing logotype with a typographical choice a \"Minimum\" out of date<\/h2>\n
