Piramida at AADF

Set to be the biggest technological center in the Balkans, Piramida represents the future of Albania's youth, igniting the spark of innovation and creativity. It is going to be the new home of TUMO Tirana.

Opening this year, Piramida needed a visual identity, and this is my brand proposal, combining the shape of the building, with its past, present, and future.
