Objective

The name, Mimyr, came from “Mímir”, a figure in Norse mythology renowned for his knowledge and wisdom. Tying into this tale was an option, but not a necessity. Primarily, the message to be communicated in the Brand was: “trustworthy, yet cutting edge and relatable for the average person with a phone that is scared of being ‘hacked', while reliable and intelligent for military customers.” Overall focus was given to the following themes: Clean aesthetics; Advanced with computer technology, but not too advanced for the average user; “We have your back.”; “David taking on Goliath”; Efficient.

Outcome

The resulting logo design for Mimyr combined the idea of the Viking helmet (security, protection, defence) along with the letter ‘M' from its name. With the vertical division of colour in the logomark, a faux depth (3D stylisation) gave the impression that the shape had a physical form.
