A brief preview of the visual identity for an interior design agency that I've been working on recently.
When Maison Vérité approached me, they wanted a visual system that felt just like their interiors (architectural and deeply intentional) The concept was inspired by the keystone, the central stone of an architectural arch that holds the entire structure together. Just as the keystone gives purpose and stability to the arch, Maison Vérité gives meaning to the spaces they shape. If you look closely, the symbol also subtly intertwines the initials “M” and “V,” merging Maison and Vérité into a harmonious form.
Fellow designers and strategists, what do you think of this visual direction?

Creative work. But for me, logo and branding is just rocket science that i can't get it!!!

Haha, thank you, Mahdia! Don't worry, it feels like rocket science to me sometimes, too! 😅

The keystone reference is really well chosen for this. It ties the brand concept directly to the work they actually do and gives the logo a reason to exist beyond aesthetics. The M + V merge is subtle enough to reward attention without being clever for its own sake.

The keystone concept is the kind of idea that holds up because it works on every level, structural, symbolic, and as a clever M and V monogram. We Build With Meaning is a strong line to anchor the whole system around too

Thank you so much, Isabella! It means a lot to hear that, especially regarding how the concept holds up across different levels. I really wanted 'We Build With Meaning' to be the core foundation for everything, so I'm thrilled it resonated with you!
