KGM Architectural Lighting

As a leading architectural lighting firm with national and international credentials, KGM needed a brand identity that matched the sophistication and nuance they bring to their highly thoughtful work. The solution was a proud and confident wordmark, freed from its square container, paired with a subordinate symbol featuring an arc of light, which became
the foundation for an expansive visual system.

Shiel Sexton

This construction management firm had a laser-focused mission: to gain the trust of visionary architects by proving they were the firm that could be relied on to execute an architect’s vision. To achieve that, the firm needed to demonstrate an affinity for design by representing their own brand with sophisticated, thoughtful design choices.

Each “S” was created as a life-sized sculpture, placed in their corporate office, and graphically optimized as a suite of logos, intentionally designed to elevate their visibility in the industry.

While the name Shiel Sexton appears in the design system, it’s the “S’s” that are the visual stars. They became known for the enormous “S’s” featured on signs at each of their project sites.

Also, I’m the blurry guy.
