Turning concrete green

URBCON

TL;DR
We gave sustainable concrete a fresh look, with a unique visual identity and slogan that cemented URBCON’s vision for greener construction.

In short

Concrete isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think about sustainability, but URBCON is here to change that. As part of a European Interreg project, URBCON is paving the way for cleaner, greener construction. Supermachine stepped in to create a distinctive visual identity, a memorable slogan, and design elements that brought their vision to life.

The challenge

How do you turn something as industrial as concrete into a symbol of sustainability? URBCON needed a brand that could bring their innovative mission into focus and resonate with audiences across Europe.

The insight

Even the toughest materials can symbolize change. By transforming concrete’s recognizable texture into something vibrant and versatile, we created a visual identity that reflects URBCON’s mission to reshape the construction sector.

The outcome

Supermachine created a toolkit for communicating URBCON’s mission. From colorful concrete textures to a clear and inspiring slogan, we made sure their message was as innovative as their methods.

In detail

URBCON is rewriting the rules for the construction sector with cleaner, greener concrete. Supermachine brought this vision to life by crafting a visual identity that’s modern, dynamic, and versatile.

We began with concrete itself, a material known for its durability but not its flair. By injecting color into its textured surface, we gave the visuals a unique edge that highlights URBCON’s innovative approach while remaining true to the material’s essence.

To complement the visuals, we developed a tone-of-voice and slogan that encapsulate their goals. “A Green Future Made Concrete” captures the project’s focus on tangible, sustainable impact.

The result? A complete brand book that includes detailed guidelines for logo usage, typography, colors, and how to integrate the textured backgrounds into different mediums. From posters to social media, every design element ties back to URBCON’s mission of a circular economy.
