The Solution
First, we embarked on a visual voyage, designing a sleek and innovative logo that fused the essence of cargo ships and containers. Ocean Depths and Fiery Passion colors painted the brand’s energy and stability.
Next, we curated a color palette that echoed professionalism and zest. Neutrals like Pure Snow and Midnight Magic set the stage, while Ocean Depths, Fiery Passion, and Golden Radiance played the lead roles.
Then, the typography stepped up – Inter font, a modern powerhouse. Bold for headings, Regular for body, crafting a no-nonsense narrative that mirrored their approach in business.
In short, we transformed Marco Shipping’s legacy into a dynamic visual symphony that not only spoke of efficiency, innovation, and trust, but also painted a vibrant story on the canvas of global logistics.
