Adam Ho
Brand for a 3 letter-word company
Announcing their $23m raise, fal is tackling AI with a generative media platform for developers.
It's quite rare to create a brand for a 3 letter-word company. Some projects take some time to chip away at its core, but the founders at fal really embraced a yearning for expression and the create on an infinite canvas.
The core concept of this identity relies on the typographic system. It is three-pronged: the camera, the typewriter, and the processor. The image, the words, and the machine. All crucial primitives of what makes AI AI.
Logo
The logo is simple, but ca represent many things. It's a knob. It's a shutter. It's a portal.
fal, originally short for "features and labels", is crefted with the main star of this entire identity.

Core Concept
As expressive the brand is, the core concept of this identity actually relies on the typographic system. It is three-pronged: the camera (Focal), the typewriter (Hal Timezone), and the processor (Harber).
Images speak
I could tak about the identity for days but it's an identity meant to be seen, not told.
