01 · The brief

A proud history, and an identity that looked its age.

Founded in 1959 as the Advertising Photographers of Finland, the association counted some of the country’s most seasoned photographers among its members. But image-making had moved on. Filmmakers, 3D artists, animators and video makers were now doing the same work, for the same clients. A new chairman arrived with a bigger vision, and the brand needed to catch up with it.

02 · What we did

A new name deserves a new face. We designed it.

01

Brand identity

A fresh, robust identity for the Finnish Image Makers Association, built to carry its new short name, Fimage, with the confidence of a brand twice its size.

02

Graphic assets

A toolkit of graphics the board and members could use, so the brand looked the same wherever it appeared.

03

Print

Multilingual business cards, designed front and back, that put the new name straight into members’ hands.

04

Website

A new website to show the industry, and the clients who hire its members, that Fimage now speaks for every kind of image-maker.

03 · The result

From a photographers’ club to the home of Finnish image-making.

Fimage stepped into its new role with an identity that respects its history since 1959 and makes room for every discipline that creates images today.
