Borboleta

Brand System for BALKO ARGENTINA S.A.

A new logotype for the two Grupo Dislub Equador existing gas stations networks: Dislub energia, based in the northeastern region of Brazil and Equador energia, in the Northern region of the Amazonas. Both companies worked independently one of the other but now after the rebranding both shows an identical image in a way that the consumers starts to perceive them as one, that was the main objective for the redesigning. An implicit symbolism, representative colors, a new typeface and organic shapes were the main elements chosen for this brand redesign.

Unique Properties

The design team achieved the goal of develop a new brand for two different companies that belonged to the same owner group. Dislub and Equador are gas station nets that operates in Northeast and North of Brasil respectively; working independently one respect of the other, and from now on they'll show the same image but mantaining his own name. That was the design challege: to give one logo for two related, but at the same time independent and completely different brands; using color, shapes and same graphic structure to get the work done.

Production Technology

The design team constructed the logo with a module-based grid that allowed us to obtain a smooth and well-shaped design.

Design Challenge

The design team faced the challenge of representing two different brands with the same image but keeping both individualities, and instructed to present a well-adjusted solution for both brands with neither one being more important than the other. The team had to honor the previous colors so they identified the most representative one for each brand and added a third one to symbolize the union of both companies.

Project Duration

The design team began working in the second quarter of 2017 and the complete project was finished and approved to Dislub Equador Board of Directors in December of the same year. During the first quarter of 2018 the design team continued working with all the applications of the new brand.

Operation Flow

By sharing both companies the same symbol a clear link will make the client's mind connect both companies as one.

Research

The isotype, the more characteristic element of the logo, represents a butterfly: a symbol strongly associated with nature, but also express a certain degree of Brazilian national spirit, therefore, the isotype also resembles the silouhette of the Brazilian territory. In addition the design team choose an unique color, purple, that represents the union of the two companies and sets them apart from the competitors in gas station market.

Inspiration

The main concept were: union, rebirth, transformation and modernism. The design team took the image of a butterfly that universally represents a symbol of powerful transformation, change, hope and renewal. The isotype is common to both brands and shows three significant colors, two representing the companies and the third representing the future.
