Renaissance Revival

Renaissance themes are revisited to communicate sophistication

Implications - Referencing both works by Renaissance masters and the architectural language associated with the cultural movement, both branding and design efforts make use of classical symbols to conflate products with the polished image of the era. Both as a means of articulating one's taste and of expressing nostalgia for classical antiquity, Renaissance imagery is often incorporated into purposefully modern products to create and emphasize contrast.
Workshop Question - If you were to pair your brand with an artistic movement, which would be most effective? Why?
