Sxdesign Brand Identity

Sxdesign Brand Identity is a sophisticated visual communication system that exemplifies the harmonious fusion of traditional Chinese philosophy with contemporary design principles. Created as an internal design project during 2021-2022 in Beijing, this brand identity system is distinguished by its innovative use of geometric elements, specifically incorporating a 1:1.414 ratio that ensures visual balance and compositional integrity. The logo design cleverly integrates quotation mark-inspired graphics within its corners, creating a symbolic representation of language and communication while maintaining perfect symmetry. This thoughtful design approach reflects the brand's fundamental philosophy, derived from the Chinese concept of ShangXiang from Yi Chuan, which emphasizes the observation, extraction, abstraction, and reorganization of everyday phenomena to create meaningful design solutions. The identity system demonstrates exceptional versatility across various applications and materials, featuring a dynamic component that allows the logo to transform into its classical Chinese name through motion graphics, effectively bridging traditional and modern design elements. The project successfully addresses the complex challenge of conveying profound Chinese cultural concepts through minimalist modern design language, earning recognition with a Silver A' Design Award in the Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design category for its innovative approach to visual storytelling and cultural synthesis. The design's sophisticated use of visual elements, combined with its ability to evoke collective memories of human language, creates a powerful tool for brand communication that resonates with both Eastern and Western audiences while maintaining its cultural authenticity.
