Corporate design (CD) refers to all components that in their entirety make up the identity of a brand. It defines the special features of the respective company or institution and generates both attention and orientation for the target group – from logo design to colour scheme, imagery, typography, design grid, etc. The success of a CD is its recognition value on as many channels as possible. Today's corporate identities are characterized by the fact that they are flexible, modular or generative, i.e. not only striking but also variable at the same time. It is therefore essential that all elements are designed flexibly, allowing their adaptation to the respective requirements. The presented current corporate design and branding concepts from Germany point to the future and are distinguished by their conceptual inventiveness, design expertise, and perfect craftsmanship.
