The concept of the project.
Studio Rolling.Design has created a visual identification system for the German Foundation STIFTUNG SILBERFUCHS, taking as a basis the idea of the bridge. Located at the ancient crossing of the River Main the city of Frankfurt and its architecture became an inspiration for the concept of the project.
The key metaphor. Bridge
A bridge is a structure for crossing a water barrier and it is symbolizing sustainability and support. We used the concept of the bridge in a figurative sense. Imagine that an unemployed elderly person is standing on the river bank, he has lost the joy of life. For him, water is a problem, consisting in the absence of work, which he can not solve on his own. The STIFTUNG SILBERFUCHS Foundation is a bridge, it helps people to find a way out of this situation and cross the river, that is, to find a suitable and interesting job and realize their dreams.
