Dickmann Richter Architekten

Ocio is a Berlin brand design studio. We worked closely with Dickmann Richter Architekten to create an impactful brand identity, establishing a timeless and modern style.

Dickmann Richter Architekten was founded in 2008. Based in Berlin, it has been managed by architects Daniel Dickmann and Thomas Richter since 2010. Their spectrum ranges from urban planning to furniture design. Their focus is always on the creation of viable as well as technically and ecologically sustainable concepts, in both the private and public sectors.

The sharped identity intends to create trust in their high-quality service, setting minimal and aesthetically appealing design. Therefore, the brand’s image focuses on the sensitive use of colours. The yellow is a dominant visual element in contrast with the black to address strength and vibrancy. The result is direct and audacious, connecting minimal abstraction and bold colour.

The paper selection was fundamental to determine the contrast and refine the quality of the whole identity. Mirroring these characteristics to the print production, a subtle yet sophisticated transparent hot foil stamping of the logo on the back of the cards gives a crafted and fine touch.
