Architecture as Inspiration

The graphics were primarily inspired by the Library & Event Center’s distinctive architectural design, by world-renowned architect, Sir David Adjaye. The logo’s two angled shapes reflect how the buildings lean into each other, framing the view visitors experience when they arrive at the site.

A Language of Lines and Light

The brand work, like the architecture, invites further dialogue with the environment and an appreciation of the surrounding area. There is much to draw from in Winter Park, a community known for its abundant outdoor spaces and rich heritage. These influences are seen as much in the architecture as they are in the graphic language Entro elaborated for the brand.

 

The playful linework evokes these and other relevant themes: rays of Florida sun, the fronds of a palm, the pages of a book, stage curtains, spotlights, giving subtle cues about the centre’s usage and happenings in addition to its locale.

Bold colors, adopted from the architectural palette, take their cue from the region’s lush vegetation. The simplicity of the visual identity, along with its distinctive angles, colors, and forms, lend themselves to creative adaptation.

 

All was designed to allow for a rich visual language in keeping with the brand across all touchpoints: banners, posters, brochures, clothing, social media, and signage.

Together, the architecture and brand create a cohesive civic experience—one that invites exploration, sparks connection, and reflects the spirit of Winter Park.
