Mayda’s name is derived from a mythical isle that mysteriously appeared on maps at various points throughout history. Many have searched for it but few have ever found it.
The metaphor of stepping into the unknown to search a distant horizon for an intangible destination, is at the heart of Mayda’s creative process.
Our identity builds on that metaphor and puts the perspective point of the horizon at the heart of the brand.
With the best talent, the brightest ideas and the newest technology, Mayda is always looking to tomorrow, propelling us to something just out of reach. We communicate this by expanding the central Y of the logo into a dynamic portal that leads us into the creative unknown.
From energetic adverts to pioneering products, the portal adjusts and reconfigures to guide us through the unique creative destinations that the team arrive at.
Exploring the horizon line is a theme that continues to play an important role in the design and navigation of the website.
Horizontal divisions combined with the use of depth and perspective create the feeling that the user is pushing forever further into Mayda’s world.
Mayda now have a visual identity that unifies their team; aligns their creative vision from the largest screen to the smallest interaction; and becomes a vessel to continue their journey forever further into the pursuit of uncharted territories.
