American Graphic Design Awards 2025
Metropolis Branding revitalizes Christopher Phelps' identity with a design inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's legacy and color palette.
I have more files that I would like to submit of the entire branding system. Christopher Phelps is an award-winning, luxury residential architect in the Carolinas. His studio needed a complete makeover for its outdated trademark and lack of a brand identity system. An ardent fan of Frank Lloyd Wright's work, this symbol is inspired by Wright's love of red hues and utilizes a character style designed by the storied architect.
