New Logo and Identity for Cruise by Moving Brands and In-house

(Est. 2013) "We're Cruise, a self-driving car service designed for the cities we love. We are building the world's most advanced self-driving vehicles to safely connect people to the places, things, and experiences they care about. We believe self-driving cars will help save lives, reimagine cities, redefine time in transit, and restore freedom of movement for many. Backed by some of the world's most respected companies like General Motors, SoftBank, Honda, and T. Rowe Price, we operate as a fast-moving startup with deep financial resources. Their backing for our technology demonstrates their confidence in our progress, team, and vision and makes us one of the leading autonomous vehicle organizations in the industry. Our partnership with General Motors enables us to manufacture a fully-integrated self-driving car that is 100% electric, and we believe this approach is crucial to truly solving transportation challenges at global scale."

Relevant quote
Unlike many of our competitors, our new identity system doesn’t feature a logo per se. Rather, the system is anchored by a 3-dimensional symbol which reflects our hopes of shaping the future of transportation — and the cities in which we operate — for the better in the 21st century. We think of it as a living identity, one that is responsive, dynamic, and can adapt to change. For example, the interplay of light and shadows on the symbol enables us to reflect the different times of day, and moods, in a built urban environment. What’s more, we can crop into our symbol to create rich imagery for a variety of brand touchpoints, especially motion assets.

Our colors are born from the city in which we’re founded: San Francisco. Our core color, presidio, is inspired by our city’s iconic architecture. The other core colors in our identity are asphalt (of course) and the colors that represent what we hope to create in future cities: clean air, water, and light.

Currently, we’re busy expressing our new identity system across a variety of channels and mediums: from livery design and communications, to our app, in-car experience, physical spaces — and most notably to the world’s first production-ready, self-driving, all-electric vehicle: the new Cruise Origin.

Opinion
While the wordmark isn’t meant to be the brand’s main identifier — the symbol is — it’s still the first thing you see on the website and while not exciting in the least, it’s so much better than the old logo with its clunky rounded sans serif and disproportionately large “u”. The biggest positive of the new wordmark is that it’s not distracting and it’s a serviceable complement to the cars and the symbol. Sculpted in slick 3D, the new “C” is super nice eye candy. The embossed, tone-on-tone execution is very well executed and I really love how the open ends of the “C” blend into the background as the height of the letter decreases. The tight crop yields cool textures and the animation is very satisfying. Not much in terms of application, the closest being the smaller car livery with the crop of the “C” and the white wordmark on top. It’s promising. Overall this feels very SFO-Silicon-Valley-ish with its slick finish, happy bright color, and crisp sans serif… which looks nice for sure but it’s all still in the same general vein as many of the tech industry brands.

The 18 Best Things to See and Do in Oslo

Image
Posted : 6/26/2020 | June 26th, 2020 Balancing natural beauty, historic architecture, and a modern flair, Oslo , Norway’s beautiful capital, is a city that punches well above its weight. It’s small but bursting with things to do: there are countless museums, spacious parks, and delicious restaurants to keep you busy. It’s close to numerous forests with hiking and biking trails, and there are lots of places to swim in the summer too. However, since it’s expensive, a lot of travelers pass Oslo by. While a visit will certainly eat into your budget, Oslo is definitely worth a couple of days. To help show precisely why you should add it to your itinerary, here are my favorite things to see and do in Oslo:   1. Take a Free Walking Tour I always start my trips off with a free walking tour. They’re a budget-friendly way to see the main sights, learn a little history, meet other travelers, and get access to an expert local guide who can answer all my questions. Free Tour Oslo organizes

Practical Action rebrands to show “how small actions can change the big picture”

Image
NB Studio has created a new identity for Practical Action, a UK development organisation. Practical Action was established in 1966 with the aim of creating appropriate technologies for developing regions of the world. It works primarily in Eastern and Southern Africa, South Asia and Latin America. It was founded by economist and philosopher Fritz Schumacher whose book, Small is Beautiful, champions the concept that small changes can empower people more than big ones. Practical Action’s aim is to provide sustainable technologies – systems that countries can accommodate with their existing resources – instead of providing large-scale aid that cannot be easily sustained. The charity was originally called Intermediate Technology Development Group but was changed to Practical Action in 2005. “Ingenuity People” Nick Finney, founder and creative director at NB Studio, says that the brand update aims to clarify the charity’s function. One of the problems with its previous names, Finne

The legacy of Life magazine’s images celebrated in new show

Image
When Life magazine was re-launched by magazine magnate Henry Luce in 1936, the idea was to put photojournalism at the forefront and publish only photography-led stories. Readers soon became accustomed to seeing images from around the world that gave them the kind of first-hand insight they’d never previously had. At one point it was selling 13.8 million copies a week, and in its lifetime the magazine commissioned more than 120,000 stories and 10 million photographs. Life was published up until 2000, and to celebrate the contributions the magazine made to documentary photography and photojournalism, Atlas Gallery in London is exhibiting a selection of some of the magazine’s most iconic and influential photographs.
