Horwitz is a bold rebranding project driven by the idea that ‘Every building tells a story.’ This concept anchors the entire identity, drawing from architectural elements like grids, lines, perspectives, and the creative process itself. Inspired by brutalist design, the rebranding brings a modern and professional touch to the studio’s image.
