Logo identity and communication platform for Sonor Audio Speaker Systems, a passionate Johannesburg loudspeaker manufacturer that breaks the mould by making quality products that can easily compete with some of the world’s top brands. Sonor is (and behaves like) a small, niche and artisanal ‘discovery brand’ that talks to new buyers hungry for new and authentic products. At BHAG Design, our job is to create and retain the authenticity and spirit of the brand.
Sonor’s robust, equally levelled logo design tells the story of Sonor’s quest for perfection. At the centre of it all, the empirically derived Ohm technology – with unique capabilities to beam separated stereo sound – is further crafted with a high degree of symmetry and precision. On balance, in our view, the logo reflects both beauty and brains.
‘Whatever It Takes’ is Sonor’s basic communication platform. It tells the story of the relentless pursuit to perfect sound reproduction; the technology and craftsmanship, but also the blood, sweat and tears that were shed to reach the goal of producing a product – both in technology and aesthetics – that can compete with the best in the world. Sonors are exclusive, hand-made speakers that are made like the musical instruments themselves. The strapline: Instruments true to the instruments that made the music, captivates the company mantra and runs throughout all communication elements. Copy strategy/writing by Mark Varder
