Roots of steel
Laser cut Corten steel
Working with interesting combinations of materiales is like adding spice to a meel or new instruments to a music composition. It adds flavour and creates insipring moods. At Built Identity we like to experiment with intriguing combinatitions and we believe that people who live and work in inspiring sorroundings, nourish their imagination and stimulate their curious minds and creativity.
Brand Identity for TV Festival
Younger Look
TV Festival approached Built Identity to re-design their visual identity. This was a second generation (..the first also designed by Built Identity) solution, created to maintain a destinct and modern feel to an organization which represents the Danish media industry.
Water, the source of life
The water game
The Water Game re-thinks the role of the water supplier. Can the local waterwork become the local landmark?
In a strong collaboration with Grontjemij | Carl Bro, a leading sustainable design, engineering and management consultancy based in 20 countries, Built Identity have developed an inspirational “game” called The Water Game. Target groups are water suppliers and the aim is to re-think the significance of water for the modern man. Today, water is taken for granted as a commodity in our part of the world. Why?
Signage for Tryg
TRYG
Built Identity was appointed to create a new signage program for two 60.000m2 buildings located in Denmark and Norway.
A series of unique signs have been manufactured.
The signs are part of a design solution by Built Identity covering a complete and extensive interior identity package.
Under the tree
THE CAFÉ TREE
“Lets meet under the tree for a coffee”. With our design for a new café, we have created a unique landmark in the vast cantine area of TrygVesta – a place for informal meetings or a "relaxed moment" on a busy working day. We wanted to establish a focal point – "a tree in the square" and the opportunity to create a “giant” yet “cozy” lamp to attract people working in the building complex. The solution was an elevated construction covered in plants on the outside with acoustic regulation panels on the inside.
Roskilde 2030
ROSKILDE 2030
In November 2009 one of the large former factory building in the new cultural hub Musicon in Roskilde opened the doors for an event arranged by the City Council Department for Children and Culture. 70 students representing a variety of educational institutions joined 30 established professionals working within the areas of culture and politics. Together they spent the day as a part of a userdriven innovation process, shaping the future scenarios for the city of Roskilde.
Acoustic Beauty
THE TWISTER SYSTEM
There is a growing awareness of the need for an acoustically adjusted environment in indoor areas – this is especially true for open space offices and meeting rooms. Built Identity has developed a product line of acoustic wall panels that serve a double purpose: adjusting acoustic levels whist simultaneously providing a visual experience ajusted to their physical environment.
Brand Identity - Danish Broadcasting Corporation
BRAND IDENTITY FOR DR
The public service Danish Broadcasting Corporation, DR, appointed creative directors at Built Identity, Masoud Alavi and Kim Fridbjørg, to design a series of their products.
Working with a value based identity process, the organisation was rebranded to coincide with the relocation of their headquarters, in 2006, to Amager, Copenhagen. The work included all levels of communication from corporate logo to major product brand identities.
The living House
THE LIVING HOUSE
Since 2007 Built Identity has been collaborating with JJW Architects on creating new design solutions for the "office of the future" for TrygVesta. Working with an organisation of 4000 employees has enabled us to experiment and create a number of exceptional designs that set new standards in the nature of the professional environments. We named the project 'The living House'. The succes criteria has been to establish a direct link between the strategic organisational targets and the company brand values in all design solutions – from architecture to signage.
The Lift tree
GREEN LIFT
The combination of nature and tecnology is intriguing and creates an interesting attraction. The objective of combining a lift tower, a garden and a distinctive new floor was, in this case, to create a point of focus – a landmark. By cutting trails of LED lights and making a pattern of brass in a cement floor, the area obtained the identity and personality we wanted.
Gallery of Light
GALLERY OF LIGHT
The first impression is important. Therefore, the feeling for a company, it's values and culture must be reflected in the design of the reception area, welcoming guests for the first time. In many ways, the reception is the face of the company.
Our design converts the reception into a welcoming ‘gallery of light’ using two reflecting glass walls, starting outside the building and folding its way into the reception area – like an additional skin directly on the body of the existing building.
MySignŽ
MYSIGN
MySign is your employee’s desk display which addresses an individual’s need of personalising today’s shifting work-stations in the open office environment. One day at one table, the next in a different department – nobody can tell where they spend their day. With MySign, images of children, spouses, pets, homes, loved-ones, and friends are tastefully displayed for all to see – a personal arrangement that easily follows the individual from station to station.
The Living House
AN INTRODUCTION BOOK
As a welcome present and an introduction to the re-organisation project ‘The Living House’, Built Identity was asked to write, illustrate and design a book. Working with the CEO of the insurance company Tryg, Stine Bosse, we created this book with the intention of illustrating some of the thoughts and emotions we had encountered from some of the 4000 employees during our process of redesigning and rebuilding the company headquarters.
Brand Identity for Tele Club
TELECLUB
Teleclub is the no. one broadcast provider in Switzerland. In order to establish a strong cross platform brand identity Teleclub wanted a powerfull identity program to link the mother - and sub brands.

Royal wedding
ROYAL WEDDING
When the future king of Denmark, His Royal Highness Crown Prince Frederik was to marry the now Crown Princess Mary, an elegant solution for a temporary TV studio was needed.
The studio was employed to transmit the event to a global audience, covering both the formal proceedings during the ceremony and prior festivities.
Advertising campaign for Deadline
FACE PROMO
To introduce two new faces as hosts on the news program ’Deadline’, we designed this promo campaign. Our focus was to show the ’person behind’ and at the same time give an honest and informal introduction. From an art direction perspective we chose to present the campaign in black and white in order to allow a rare focus of light and shadows on the facial characteristics. The quietly animated typography, sets a tone of a classical newspaper typeface with a modern edge.
WAKI
WAKI
... or 'walking kitchen' is a unit which contains all the necessities of a mini-kitchen – sink, electricity, cupboards, lights, drawers and shelves. We designed the WAKI as a self-service coffee, a response to the need for a 'private' moment when you pick up your coffeé, wash your hands or clean your cup. At the same time we wanted to reduce noise from the coffeé machine by making some tall sides holding the kitchen elements in place – much like a cape over your shoulders.
Hans Christian Andersen
200’th birthday
Not surprisingly, the celebration of the all times most famous Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen, was a big and special event. Our Iranian creative director and partner at Built Identity, Masoud Alavi was commisioned to solve this prestigious design assignment. Interestingly enough the match turned out as ’a perfect marrige’ between the famous paper clippings of old Hans Christian Andersen and a Persian design tradition for ornamentation. A perfect birthday ’wrapping’.
