Our approach to this project was multifaceted, focusing on the development of a new visual identity that would resonate with both the citizens of Monaco and a global audience. We sought inspiration from various elements and colors found in Monaco’s heraldry, a rich tapestry of symbols and motifs that reflect the Principality’s history and cultural identity. This led us to the rebranding of ‘Monaco Inter Expo’ as ‘Pavillon Monaco’. The choice of the word ‘Pavillon’, which in French means both ‘flag’ and ‘marquee’, was deliberate; it represents the dual nature of the company – its role in promoting Monaco and its function as a flagbearer of the national brand.
This new strategy was met with approval and was officially presented by H.S.H Prince Albert himself during a significant event on the port of Monaco. This endorsement not only validated our approach but also emphasized the importance of the project in the context of Monaco’s national branding and global outreach.
