Kolemhlíny is an interdisciplinary creative platform focused on the use of clay materials in architecture with an emphasis on sustainability and regenerative design.

Designing the identity for kolemhlíny required capturing the tactile essence of clay while ensuring clarity across digital and print applications. Our challenge was to translate the granular, layered quality of rammed earth into a coherent visual system. It needed to feel raw yet intentional—expressing materiality, craft, and the interdisciplinary, experimental nature of the platform without appearing chaotic or overly decorative.

The final logotype is set to evoke the density and texture of clay particles. Its modular, grain-like rhythm mirrors the layered process of rammed earth construction, creating a strong link to the project’s material focus. A bold orange palette and dynamic composition amplify this connection, while a supporting typographic system ensures versatility, giving kolemhlíny a distinctive identity rooted in craft and contemporary design.
