Logo

Oceanus is the name of the great titan that rules over the sea in Greek Mythology. Pottery art and patterns from Greek history are incorporated into the design of the logo’s “O” to create a signature symbol carried throughout the branding. The rich clear blue colors of the Mediterranean Sea inspired the teal color usage. Throughout the branding ancient Greek marble statues are used as consistent imagery of classical architecture infused with modern style.
