FINAL BRANDING
Drawing inspiration from Asian culture and Asian inspired mannerism, I looked to the Zen gardens; their tranquility, meaning, and design. What also caught my eye is how some Asian artists sign their artwork. A hanko seal stamp (in an East and Southeast Asian context) is a general name for printing stamps and impressions which are used in lieu of signatures in personal documents, office paperwork, contracts, art, or any item requiring acknowledgement or authorship. In merging these two concepts, I was able to create a visually appealing luxury branding that pays homage to the cultures inspired by it and personifies the elegance and beauty that is the penthouse at 219 east 44th street.
