The identity Mountains of the Sea is a typographic sea mountain. It is imposing, strong and immense like great mountains and great waves. The solid composition allows for the idea of ​​a sharp, robust and strong block of letters. The Symbol combines mountains and waves in an idea of ​​movement, nothing is still and everything happens at different speeds, focusing on what is happening and what is yet to happen. The brand’s visual style is very cinematic and photographic in an analog register, where texture, color and light are decisive as intimate and close perception.
