Entraform: Designing for Function and Form

Entraform: Designing for Function and Form

Entraform is an architecture studio working primarily with private clients on residential homes and select small-scale commercial spaces. Known for their thoughtful, detail-oriented approach, the studio blends function and form with a deep respect for nature and the environment. They were looking for a brand identity that would quietly reflect their values—professional yet warm, clean yet distinctive—while letting the visual impact of their work take center stage.

SCOPE

Brand Identity + Web Design

brand Identity + Web Design

Challenge

The studio needed a brand system that conveyed professionalism and structure without feeling too rigid. Their work speaks through carefully designed spaces, so the identity had to play a supporting role—adding clarity and character, but never competing with the photography of their projects. The challenge was to build a design language that feels organized and flexible, with just enough personality to stand out in a field where minimalism is common.

solution

I created a brand identity that blends simplicity with subtle expression, inspired by the idea of “connecting the dots”—a nod to the way Entraform brings together nature and form through architecture. The design system features clean typography, intentional spacing, and soft but structured elements that guide the viewer without distraction.

Brand elements are flexible by design, allowing the studio to dial things up or down depending on the context. A restrained color palette and minimal graphics allow their project photography to remain the focal point, while still maintaining a recognizable visual framework.
