Four Seasons required a new brand platform to encapsulate their annual FS conference. This conference brings together the FS hotel managers and owners for a week of discussion, celebration, learning and enlightenment.
For this task we sculpted a piece of unique typography for their logo-word, which complimented their brand font bellow, used in the tagline. This along with a fitting spark of illumination logo-mark, worked together to to form a beautifully crafted and understated identity, which works perfectly as an extension of the umbrella brand Four Seasons.
What’s better than staying at a Four Seasons hotel? Taking a private jet to visit and stay in eight of them while also exploring some truly remarkable countries.
To help promote this uniquely high-end experience, we created an extension of their on-screen campaign via a translation into print. Covering a double spread in a range of luxury travel magazines, we formulated simple, elegant, and picturesque birds eye-view snapshots of the resorts and hotels, bringing together the concept of flight and showcasing the accomodation simultaneously.
