Idea
Playing with the words and the images, that’s what they do… During our first meeting they told us the name of they had chosen for their new company: ‘Sioux’.
At first, that choice of name seemed quite improbable and random… But it has its positives: it’s stands for a well known indian tribe that comes with a certain symbolic strenght attached to it… and it’s short. But in fact, they mainly chose that name because you could play with its secondary reading: Orally ‘Sioux’ sounds also like ‘See You’…
From that standpoint we started developing their symbol: A feather that, when put horizontally, becomes an eye. With its bold, uneven lines, the drawing style of the logo conveys a tribal feel. To support their logotype, we also created a whole alphabet using this particular, bold visual style, allowing them to typographically stand out.
