MTRL 's identity

“MTRL ” opened in Kyoto and Tokyo in December 2015 as a creative lounge which captures all old and new / tangible intangible as “material ” and faces it. MTRL is a place to connect materials, new technologies and new creatives, and it is also a place where creators, academics, companies collaborate and create new trends.

In constructing MTRL ‘s visual identity, we focused on MTRL ‘ s inclusion of some “material ” besides material material, and first systematically organized each material.

1. Original Physical Materials (traditional materials, new materials)
2. Human Materials (Creators and academics)
3. Corporate Materials (Companies providing new technologies and traditional materials)
4. Generative Materials (founder of MTRL)

In MTRL ‘s identity, these four symbols are a visually simplified version of a variety of material Materials and it is regarded as symbolizing the diversity of the other three Materials / Corporate Materials / General materials, It becomes a symbol.
Patterns using these changes and combinations are icons that arouse people ‘s imagination and promote imagination.
We think that each is a unique place to create innovative business while co-creating with equal opportunities, it is a unique identity that represents MTRL which is the source of innovation.
