"A new definition of what space means."

Full brand build for MOHAB Studio, an architecture and engineering collective designing sustainable, modular tiny homes, from strategy and naming through to visual identity and website.

MOHAB's lead product, a minimal tiny home called a Space, is a direct response to the dwindling supply of liveable space. Conceived as a modular system, Spaces combine into offices, living spaces, and more.

The brief was to build the brand from one grand idea into a market leader. That meant strategy, naming, tone of voice, identity, and a website, all working together to make the ambition tangible.

01 — Strategy and Naming

A brand that sounds like a leader.

A unique market segment identified. Naming architecture stripped of corporate jargon, simple and transparent. Thought leadership platform: What Is Space.

02 — Visual Identity

Adaptable, like the product itself.

An identity that signifies the flexibility of the Spaces and the strength of the ambitions behind them. Logo animation brings the modular logic of the architecture into motion.

Production and material photography and a press kit show the craft behind every Space.
