Game of Thrones Season 4 is well underway and there has been a lot of hype about it. Among many homages to the show is this collection of graphic artistry by Mordi Levi. The Israeli graphic designer and illustrator is a fan of the popular HBO show and was inspired by the visuals of the family houses in the series. He incorporated the family identities into the branding of large corporations.
The re-imagined present day company branding includes logos, packaging and advertising. For example, the wealthy Lannister clan in the series are now manufacturers of luxury sports cars; Levi replaced the Ferrari logo with the medieval family’s flag.
Game of Thrones should really think of expanding into these new fields because some of this branding is actually very fitting! For instance, an airline company aptly named ‘Arryn’ includes the slogan "as high as honor."
