"Fine Print · marks and patterns"

The asterisk is the brand’s mark, drawn in the brand colour. A grey photo sits inside a serrated seal and turns to brand colour only within the lens as it reads the footnote. The animation uses one continuous motion, with every mark ratcheting forward in a loop, and works best for launches, hiring, and offers using a two-colour identity; rebranding takes about 20 editor actions.

How do you brand a business that doesn’t fit into one box?

Dario Nuzzarello built a Studio that works across engineering, IT, strategy, and software. The challenge was creating a typographic identity that could bring all those disciplines together without limiting the brand to just one.

I wanted to avoid making it feel overly technical or cold. Since Dario’s work is highly custom and interdisciplinary, the identity needed to feel precise and structured while still being human and approachable.

Sometimes, the best solution is finding the right type, proportions, and details to make a name stand on its own.

What do you think about the final result?

A studio that spans engineering, IT, strategy and software is a naming and typography problem more than a logo problem, so leading with type was the right call. Precise but human is a hard line to walk. Did Dario push for a symbol at any point?
