Infocraft / One connected visual world.
01 / The challenge

More than a new logo.
A clearer family.

Infocraft develops software that helps professionals automate work in housing and communal services. The brief called for a redesigned logo and a visual communication system for a family of specialist software products.

The challenge was to connect the company and its products without making every expression identical. The identity also needed a friendlier, more contemporary voice for a technical category.

02 / Our method in practice

Understand the work.
Find the driving idea.

01

Research

Study the product, audience and competitive environment.

02

Strategy

Clarify the corporate brand and the way its product family is named.

03

Metaphor

Express useful automation as a “digital engine”.

04

Visual system

Translate that idea into a symbol, shapes, colours and practical rules.

Inside our branding method
03 / The brand metaphor

Put everyday work
in motion.

The strategy described modern automated solutions for professionals who value their time. Its mission was to make working life simpler.

“Digital engine” gave that promise a tangible image: software that helps move a business forward. It became the bridge between the strategic work and the search for a visual identity.

04 / The visual search

Explore the routes.
Keep the idea in view.

The original presentation records several directions: the Cyrillic initial, documents, cloud services, the built environment and screens. These drawings show how the same strategic idea could lead to different visual structures.

The house-related route connects the software to the world it serves. The sketches test how that association can become a compact, recognisable symbol.

05 / The identity

A common structure.
Room to differentiate.

The final system brings together a compact symbol and a clear wordmark. Corporate and product identities share a family resemblance, while their colours and application marks help express different roles.

The guidelines distinguish the parent brand from housing-services and garden-community products. Recognition comes from the relationship between the elements, rather than a single logo repeated everywhere.

06 / A visual language

Precision in the system.
Warmth in the story.

Rounded geometric elements create a repeatable graphic vocabulary. Colour, illustration and photography give the system a broader range of expression across communication.

Human working situations soften the technical subject. The original illustrations bring people into the software story, while the graphic rules keep different formats connected.

The connection that matters

Research → idea →
identity → guidelines.

The project connects a practical promise—making professional work simpler—to a visual system and a guide for applying it. That is the role of our method: give the visual decisions a clear foundation, then make them usable.
