01 / ContextVisual identity

A handmade brand born between flea markets, self-expression and Berlin’s alternative culture.

LNA & MEHR creates unique handmade pieces from reused materials. The brand comes from Elena’s personal project, as she aims to professionalise her craft practice and start selling her products in markets and creative spaces across the city.

02 / THE CHALLENGE

Function
+ identity.

The main issue was the lack of a defined corporate identity, which made the brand harder to recognise and position in a highly competitive and visually saturated market.

The identity needed to communicate the project’s values, aesthetic universe and positioning within Berlin’s creative ecosystem in a coherent way.

Responses on buying habits for handmade accessories.

Handmade80%

Value handmade and small-brand products a lot or quite a lot over mass-produced ones — the basis of the identity's positioning.

03 / From concept to identity Objects,
not items.

ConceptFashion can be more than consumption; it can be self-expression.

DecisionBuild the identity around objects with meaning.

ResultA confident, direct and open brand.

Symbol

An open symbol.

The cat represented independence, authenticity and mystery. The decision was to integrate it into the logo and turn it into the brand’s visual voice.

Graphic system

Not exactly
the same.

Instead of using a standard icon system, the cat responds, changes and accompanies the brand without losing its identity.

Independent.
Curious.
Never static.

04 / Identity in use

An identity that moves.

“Function solves a need. Identity makes the object matter.”

The project turns a real craft practice into a recognisable and scalable brand, without separating product, cultural context and personality.
