Identity, The Hawaii Independent

The Hawaii Independent

The Hawaii Independent is a news gathering website with a focus on hyper local information gathering. With competition from major media outlets and established local new services, the Hawaii Independent requested a logo that matched their forward thinking mission as well as allowing flexibility across the digital landscape. ASWS designed a typographic abbreviation of the letter H and I as three equal columns with an inset circle to represent a lowercase ‘i’.

Identity, The MacNaughton Group

Kona Commons

Airspace Workshop developed the logo for the Kona Commons retail center, a joint development of The MacNaughton Group & Kobayashi Group.

Identity, US Pacific Development

The Vanguard Lofts

Airspace Workshop developed the identity for US Pacific Development’s residential project, The Vanguard Lofts. Through a collaborative process, Airspace Workshop worked with USPD to identify three core themes for the project: Community, Connected, and Customize. Further exploration of these themes led to the discovery of the Vanguard Lofts name. The core themes were also implemented in the development of the logo, color palette, and associated typography. The identity was later implemented in the print collateral, sales brochure, website, as well as on-site environmental elements.

Hawaii International Film Festival, Identity, Print, Process

HIFF 26

Airspace Workshop was selected to design the print materials for the 2006 Hawaii International Film Festival. During our initial meeting, the HIFF expressed a desire to establish a Festival brand, something they felt did not exist at the time. The HIFF also wanted to unify its collateral underneath this new brand, and establish a consistency to help strengthen the Festival’s identity.

After reviewing the existing materials, we set out to refine and develop the HIFF logo. The new design is based on 35mm, 16mm and 8mm film aspect ratios, and consists of a strong typographic treatment.
