AKADEMOS
Akademos is a Martial Arts studio which specialized in Olympic style & traditional Tae Kwon Do, based in Athens, Greece.
The Project
Brand Identity, Graphic Design, Print, Social Media
I was assigned to design Akademos brand identity, promotional flyer, the outdoor and indoor signage, as well as the social media profile layout.
The source of inspiration for the logotype-symbol, just came when I saw the owner of the studio, who did a classic taekwondo move kick.
The typography was designed specially for Akadimos and I wanted to be bold, clear and give the feeling of respect, confidence and validity.

Tae Kwon Do / Taekwondo is about self improvement and defense, and although one should always seek constant improvement, it is also helpful to have a way to gauge you’re progress. This is where belts, and rank, comes into play.
