The identity of the capital airport

The identity of the capital airport

After years of delays, the new Berlin Brandenburg Airport will open on October 31, 2020. A week earlier, the name SXF for Berlin-Schönefeld was said goodbye and the existing terminal was renamed Terminal 5. It will continue to serve as a departure and destination point for low-cost airlines.

The Berlin office Moniteurs Kommunikationsdesign was commissioned to design an identity for the new BER airport - in the form of an easy-to-read, harmonious guidance system. Typeface, color and pictograms form a unified system that guides passengers through the airport and connects the new terminals with the old one.

For the guidance system, consisting of panels, signs and screens, a dark red color was chosen to harmonize with the architecture of wood, sandstone and glass. Some panels are integrated into the architecture. The white font color stands out clearly against the background. The hierarchies are marked by hatchings that draw their inspiration from Brandenburg coniferous forests and modern buildings of Berlin. Thus, coding by bright colors is dispensed with and a homogeneous appearance is made possible. In the terminals, the letters identifying the individual zones recede into the background as hatching, while the numbers symbolizing the gates stand out in white. Pictograms with a brown background refer passengers to services, parking facilities and toilets, for example.

The typeface BER Signage was designed especially for the new airport. It contains references to typical Berlin features: The double S is represented as an ß - as on most Berlin street signs. The pictograms were also developed from the typeface. This is intended to create a "design homogeneity between the typeface and the pictograms."

The comprehensive passenger guidance system also includes touchpoints whose displays can be constantly updated so that, for example, the latest rules regarding Corona measures can be displayed. They fit into the wayfinding system.

Inspiration: Cozy reading corner in &tradition style

Inspiration: Cozy reading corner in &tradition style Hola the wood fairy, but from the reading corner we can not get out of the whole autumn. And that's what we thought when we shot the beautiful pieces of furniture from &tradition in the summer. The Danish label for furniture, accessories and lighting has already enchanted us many times in the past, so it was about time that we give ourselves a little bit to the label when it comes to creating a beautiful, cozy feel-good corner for your home. Admittedly, having the products of &tradition at home and being able to create a great reading corner with them, has already pleased us quite a bit. When else do you have the opportunity to equip a corner through and through with design classics? Well, well, we didn't get used to it, after all, the great pieces were only visiting for the shoot. But nevertheless or just because of it: Our Interior-Wishlist has now become a lot longer. Here comes our inspiration for a cozy rea...

These are Germany's most beautiful hotels The last few months have sharpened our focus: On the fact that good things are sometimes closer than we thought. We have compiled twelve of our favorite vacation destinations on our doorstep for your next trip - old classics and new treasures. Mauritzhof, Münster The "Mauritzhof" on the edge of Münster's old town has been around since the 80s. However, the 52-room boutique hotel underwent a butterfly-like transformation a few years ago, with the Berlin design studio Lambs and Lions simultaneously providing the pupae and the cocoon of heavy fabrics and warm colors, double rooms from 159 euros. Rosso, Allgäu South of the Elbe, life is not the same. That's what Lisa Rühwald and Christian Müller noticed when they set off from Hamburg two years ago "with a healthy dose of naivety in their luggage". They didn't get as far as Italy, because a farm in the Allgäu region fell in front of their feet. So they broug...

Advertising | Le Balcon Parisien

Advertising | Le Balcon Parisien (Advertising) In cooperation with OTTO, we have taken a look at the balcony, which is even called a window to the outside world by some. Who does not know it? During the long autumn and winter time the balcony degenerates felt to a garbage outdoor storage, the plants hang through, it is a small tragedy, at most to cool drinks or on New Year's Eve the balcony has found a use in the winter. All the better that spring has finally arrived in our country and we can once again give our balconies our full attention. The balcony story The history of the balcony, by the way, can be traced back to around the birth of Christ. If we believe ancient Roman wall drawings, covered balconies on buildings were already common in the Roman Empire. In the Orient, too, wood-carved balconies provided a view of the public, especially for women. With the expansion of the Ottoman Empire, balconies came to the Mediterranean region and thus spread to Europe. At first, balco...
