The previous logo represented the road infrastructure, but the idea of environment, landscape and preservation of biodiversity were absent. In order to be in line with the group's raison d'\u00eatre, Graph\u00e9ine helped Groupe CHEVAL to transform its logotype and graphic guidelines.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=\"48766\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\"][vc_single_image image=\"48776\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/2\"][vc_single_image image=\"48772\" img_size=\"medium\"][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/2\"][vc_single_image image=\"48774\" img_size=\"medium\"][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_single_image image=\"48824\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\"][vc_gallery type=\"image_grid\" images=\"48770,48768\" img_size=\"full\" onclick=\"\"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/3\"][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"2\/3\"][vc_column_text]\n
By analysing the logos of competing public works companies, we found that the majority of their emblems favour a pure form with a flat colour treatment. No artifice or relief effect adds complexity to their rendering.<\/p>\n
The redesign of the logo retains the principle of a dynamic and moving \"C\" lettering, while removing the \"horseshoe\" evocation and replacing it with a more fluid and \"aerial \" design. His shape evokes the lightness of a folding ribbon. By cleverly stylising the drop of this letter \"C\" we obtain a stylised horse's head and the whole letter becomes a spirited horse.
\nThe extremely minimalist design of the horse's silhouette can present a risk when it comes to revealing the trick. Some people will see the horse at first glance and others will not. This contributes to the pleasure of discovery when the time comes.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_gallery type=\"image_grid\" images=\"48784,48786,48798,48782,48788,48790,48780\" img_size=\"full\" onclick=\"\"][\/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]\n
The new brand design of the 14 affiliates heralds the beginning of a new era for Groupe CHEVAL. Beyond the change of logo and colours, this new visual identity : Groupe Cheval is a rapidly growing French public works company. The successive acquisition of several subsidiaries required a rethink of their brand architecture. The registration of a \"raison d'\u00eatre\" in the company's statutes also motivated an evolution of their visual identity in order to better correspond to their values.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/2\"][vc_column_text]\n - To have a strong, impactful, modern and flexible visual identity, so that Groupe Cheval and its subsidiaries are presented in a coherent way, enhancing the value of the \"CHEVAL\" brand Groupe CHEVAL, 1st mission-driven company in the public works sector, changes its visual identity to be in line with its values.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":48823,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","class_list":["post-48826","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio-category-identite-en","portfolio-tags-industry-and-construction-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
