Overview
iFORTEX is an IT company focused on computer vision, machine learning, and software development. The goal was to move the brand away from a soft, “startup” look toward a high-tech visual language: a dark palette, a neon accent, a robotic key visual, and a coherent design system. The scope included logo and typography redesign, a full brand book, a multi-page corporate website (services, expertise, careers, contacts, and more), a suite of marketing assets (banners, roll-ups, brochures, a large slide deck), merch, social media art direction, and an internal portal on Google Sites — all supporting bilingual delivery and a single case logic: detailed on the site, short in slides, and visual-first in social.

Challenge
The old mark and surrounding visuals felt too soft and startup-like for a company that sells CV/ML expertise and quality engineering. The brief called for a tighter, more technological identity with a recognizable key visual and a system that scales across web, print, presentations, and merch without breaking. The scope was ecosystem-level, not a single touchpoint: two languages and multiple formats (site, decks, social).
Solution
The answer is a sci-fi / cyberpunk-lite direction: black base, acid/mint neon green accents in UI, Michroma-based typography with Cyrillic extension and Neue Montreal for calmer body/UI text. The logo was tightened (geometry, spacing); recognition was preserved (including the accent dot on the “i” as brand heritage). On top: a design system — grids, HUD lines, arrows, patterns — so the site, slides, and offline materials feel like one world, not random templates.
Visual territory
The mood is dark stage, diagonals, neon, glass, and metal — not generic corporate flat, but tech-noir. This frame sets the rules for photography, 3D, and UI: contrast, one strong accent, premium engineering energy.
System across channels
The process was end-to-end: lock identity and components in the brand book, then roll them into the multi-page site (a major impact driver), in parallel into presentations and marketing collateral, plus an internal Google Sites hub. That shows scope: this isn’t “logo + business card,” it’s a branched, repeatable system with bilingual rollout.
Identity & typography
The wordmark is built on Michroma with tuned spacing and character; Cyrillic is production-ready with kerning. The secondary grotesk keeps UI and long copy readable. The tone is brutalist clarity — no decoration for decoration’s sake.
Corporate website
The site is the main proof: many pages, one system (lines, brackets, glow, “slab” buttons), clear hierarchy, and consistent brand from hero to form. Mention before/after if you can show the old site next to the new one.
Merch & applications
Merch follows the tech aesthetic and recognizable brand lines. Because of how the company uses logos, marks sit mainly on the back — the front stays cleaner and more “engineering.” On the back, a cyberpunk-style “battery” charge metaphor and a line about keeping your “coffee tank” topped up — a human, ironic nod to high-load IT culture.
Back as a “device panel”: battery, warning copy, stats (Creative on, Days without code: 0) — the robot / HUD line.
Chest: DIGITAL WORLD CREATOR + square arrow + hatching — minimal front without a loud logo.
Same DNA: dark body, white/green print, recognizable mark or line from the system.
Tote — large canvas for lines and arrow; pen — small-scale test of mark and accent.
Marketing & internal touchpoints
Offline and digital marketing share grids, typography, and the same green accent; decks and posts reuse the same moves as the site. The internal Google Sites portal is part of the same story: the brand lives inside the company, not only outward-facing.
Design Decisions
Key calls: dark base for premium focus; one loud accent instead of many colors; Michroma + neutral grotesk for character vs. readability; HUD metaphors (grids, status, “battery”) linking ML/AI product story to visuals. Logo redesign shifts toward high-tech brutalism without losing recognition.
Results & Impact
The company gained a coherent brand with a strong key visual and a design system to grow new touchpoints. There is now a branched marketing ecosystem in two languages: cases and expertise are deep on the website, compact in slides, and fast and visual in social — plus print, merch, and an internal portal. In scope and consistency, the project reads at art-direction level: system-first, not one-off hero shots.
The client came with a fragmented visual identity that didn't communicate the premium positioning they were aiming for. They needed a brand that felt both architectural and human, conveying trust without being cold.
