BRAND SYSTEM



The Client
National Geographic is a channel for curious people, restless explorers and nature lovers. It airs non-fiction TV, mainly documentaries with factual content involving nature, science, culture and history all with and characteristic and unmissable entertainment element.


The Challenge
Each year, National Geographic Channel celebrates Earth Day (April 22nd) by programming a series of shows aimed to raise awareness, inspire positive action and especially, celebrating the beautiful diversity of our planet. The tone is uplifting. This time they commissioned us with strategising and creating a flexible system for this event. 


The Flopicco Studio Approach
Based on the round world we created for Earth Day 2020, our objective was to create new thematic and colorful round worlds (oceans, flora, animals, the Amazon, energies, recycling), that worked individually and interlinked with each other. For each of them we emphasised different hues of the colourful generic palette. We explored the system's applications in motion, print and consumer products.

DMAX I DEMONI DELLO SPORT
For Demoni dello Sport, Flopicco Studio created an identity that blends tabloid aesthetics with noir influences, highlighting the duality of fame and failure. To amplify the emotional weight of the series, a dramatic red was introduced into the black and white palette, creating a visual tension that reflects the complex reality of these fallen icons.
