Golden times for the concrete block

Not only a new campaign, but also a revamped branding: Made gives the Swiss Music Awards a new look for the anniversary edition.

Next Friday, the Swiss Music Awards will celebrate their tenth anniversary. Since the first edition, the event has grown from a scene award to the most important national music prize. Made was commissioned to express this development in a revised branding.

The "concrete block" is literally cemented: The cube and the material remain. Otherwise, Made has rethought the award under the premise "from event to format". The stone and logo have been formally revised and given a new perspective. Special effort is invested in the development of a layout system. SMA communication is to develop a visual continuity over the years. The year is at the center of this and initiates a series with the 2017 edition.

The layers of the layout are immersed in a new theme every year. For the anniversary edition, the concrete block takes a gold bath - after all, round birthdays should be celebrated in a special way.
