40 Tenth Ave

The light of pure innovation

Standing ten stories high within the Meatpacking District and rooted on the High Line, 40 Tenth Avenue’s chiseled shape offers tenants a heightened awareness of the natural world. The campaign that we created captured Studio Gang’s innovative, elemental design in an elegantly modern brand identity.

Can you see the light?

Air and light are the defining design elements of 40 Tenth Avenue. The building follows the sun throughout the year, allowing light to pour around the “carves” that create its diamond-shaped facets.

Setting the mood

A neighborhood photoshoot helped establish the brand mood: understated elegance meets stylish sophistication on the streets of the Meatpacking District.

Natural simplicity

The logo hints at the movement of the sun which was a key element in the architecture of the building. Typography, color and layout are meant to be simple and stark to contrast and highlight the textural imagery.
