Project Brief
Melbourne-based Insight Psychology had a vision to evolve its practice into a more integrative experience with psychology and mindful movement to inspire and empower positive change. We designed the interior and branding for the newly named Insight Body and Mind to reflect this evolution and holistic approach to health and wellbeing. The client required an overarching identity and spatial experience to encompass both body and mind, with a clear distinction between the psychology practice and wellness studio, whilst communicating the innovative union of both practices. The redefinition of the existing business needed to appeal to both new and existing clientele.
Project Innovation/Need
Insight offers clients a sensory and transcendental brand and spatial experience, from the consulting rooms on the ground floor, to the movement studios on the first and second floors. The branding and interiors were designed in unison to produce a strong identity for Insight and differentiation of its unique offerings, through a design language evoking flow, energy and life.
The branding adds a human-focused touch throughout the interior, with the ‘g’ in the logotype representing the human body, used as the core element for all branding and signage. It defined the supporting typography and icon set, with minimalist circular forms creating a clean and modern brand identity that is continued through all business and marketing collateral (stationery, website, social media, merchandising, equipment, plus more). Neon signage and decals reinforce the brand with memorable, inspiring messages throughout the interior. Branded merchandise, including drink bottles, workout equipment and apparel, extends the brand awareness and sense of community outside the studio.
Design Challenge
Striking the balance between the two sides of the business under the overarching Insight Body and Mind brand experience was imperative. The colour palette comprises two distinct yet integrated colour schemes to represent psychology and movement, respectively. Deep teal tones are professional and earthy to represent the psychology practice, while peach tones infuse the movement studios on the upper floors with a sense of warmth, humanness and serenity. A gradient texture combining both tones merges the two practices, uniting body and mind, and symbolising movement and transition.
Sustainability
We have always designed with the intention to withstand the test of time. All of our interiors have the intention to be timely, yet timeless. The concept here perfectly suited our design philosophy as where able everything is sourced locally supporting local business and trades.
