Sentient Observer was founded on a simple premise: to amplify the importance of mastering one’s mindset as well as its impact of positive change and innovation, not only on an individual level but also a societal one. Based upon an extensive exploration of human nature within the landscape of society, Sentient Observer’s series of thought-provoking writings on mindset and an actionable five-pillar manifesto aims to inspire anyone to become a catalyst for positive change in their own lives and society at large.
Sentient Observer needed to differentiate from traditional motivational speakers and inspirational media while retaining relevance to the self-help market. Across branding, photography, social media and also new journal-style digital experience, the visual identity manifests the notion of Eudaimonia, individualism and visionary thinking, while the strategy to highlight the unique selling point — the manifesto — across all touchpoints enables Sentient Observer to connect with their audience in an authentic and engaging way.
To present Sentient Observer and their philosophy in an engaging and user-friendly way, the landing page also contains a manifesto — which functions as a directory navigating the reader through the five-pillar philosophy. Visit website.
The marque represents positivity, balance and growth. It was created from the letters “S” and “O” which were refined in order to achieve perfect symmetry — accentuating the balanced feel of the marque and adding distinctiveness to the logo. Styrene A by Berton Hasebe, Commercial Type.
Art-directed photographic style celebrates humanity and its observant nature through clean and highly geometric aesthetics — a combination of digital photography and CGI.
