Project info

Katko is a Finnish family-owned manufacturer of high-quality electrical switches and enclosures. To support its renewed business strategy and global growth ambitions, Katko asked Hi Shine to redesign its brand identity.

As creative director, I led the brand design process towards a bold, contemporary expression that respects Katko’s history going back to 1938. The brand system was built digital-first, alongside a new UX vision for Katko’s digital sales channels, and I also did some of the project’s 3D and motion design.
