Ganezza’s Visual Identity: A Dynamic Branding Journey

Ganezza’s Visual Identity: A Dynamic Branding Journey

abduzeedo

Explore Ganezza’s vibrant branding and visual identity, designed by Turan Ramazanli, that captures energy and warmth.

Ganezza, a home furnishings retailer based in the Netherlands with locations in Schiedam and Amsterdam, has recently unveiled a striking new visual identity designed by Turan Ramazanli. This rebrand perfectly encapsulates Ganezza’s modern, inviting essence while enhancing its presence in the competitive home decor market.

Color Palette: Warmth and Creativity in Every Shade

A key element of Ganezza’s new identity is the vibrant color palette. Orange dominates, chosen for its warmth and ability to evoke feelings of happiness. This friendly, playful hue transforms spaces, making them feel full of energy and life. It’s a strategic choice, as the color not only conveys optimism but also aligns with Ganezza’s commitment to creating lively environments through their furnishings.

Balancing the bright orange are complementary tones that maintain the brand’s sophistication while allowing for moments of visual excitement. The palette is designed to be memorable, setting Ganezza apart in the home furnishings sector.

Typography and Iconography: Cohesion in Every Detail

Typography in Ganezza’s branding strikes a harmonious balance between modernity and accessibility. The typeface selection reflects a dynamic personality, making every written element clear and engaging. Icons, custom-designed to pair seamlessly with the typeface, enhance the brand’s visual language, emphasizing simplicity and cohesiveness.

This thoughtful integration of type and iconography ensures that Ganezza’s messaging is as visually appealing as it is easy to digest. Every design decision contributes to a brand identity that feels both unified and versatile, adaptable to various marketing materials and store environments.

Design Philosophy: More Than Just Looks

Turan Ramazanli’s approach goes beyond aesthetics. The visual identity was created with Ganezza’s core values in mind: quality, creativity, and exceptional customer service. By combining visual elements that evoke emotion with a functional, user-friendly design, the rebrand speaks to Ganezza’s mission of transforming spaces through high-quality, stylish furnishings.

The branding is both bold and welcoming, capturing the attention of a design-savvy audience while remaining approachable to everyday shoppers. It’s a reminder that effective visual identities don’t just look good—they communicate a brand’s story and values effortlessly.

For designers, Ganezza’s visual identity offers a masterclass in creating a cohesive brand experience. To explore more of Turan Ramazanli’s work, visit behance.net/X_Turan_X.

Make Your iPhone Ask to Join Wi-Fi Networks

By default, your iPhone automatically connects to known wi-fi networks. (To stop an iPhone from automatically connecting, you can tell your iPhone to forget a wi-fi network.) But what happens if you take your iPhone to a new location? You'll need to manually connect your iPhone to a wi-fi network.

That's a hassle. But if you have the foresight and inclination, you can save yourself time in the future by making your iPhone ask to join wi-fi networks when no known networks are available. Instead of having to open settings to join a network, you'll be able to easily select a network from an on-screen prompt.

Here's how to make your iPhone ask to join wi-fi networks:

  1. From the home screen, tap Settings.

  2. Tap Wi-Fi. The window shown below appears.

  3. Move the Ask to Join Networks slider to the On position.

  4. The next time you're in a location with no known networks, your iPhone will prompt you to connect to an available wi-fi network, as shown below.

In the future, this prompt will be displayed when no known networks are available. (To actually see the prompt, you'll need to do something that requires network access, like try to check your email or open a webpage.) To connect to a wi-fi network, select a network and enter a password, if one is required.

"What is deceptive, especially in the West, is our assumption that repetitive and mindless jobs are..."

What is deceptive, especially in the West, is our assumption that repetitive and mindless jobs are dehumanizing. On the other hand, the jobs that require us to use the abilities that are uniquely human, we assume to be humanizing. This is not necessarily true. The determining factor is not so much the nature of our jobs, but for whom they serve.

‘Burnout’ is a result of consuming yourself for something other than yourself. You could be burnt out for an abstract concept, ideal, or even nothing (predicament). You end up burning yourself as fuel for something or someone else. This is what feels dehumanizing. In repetitive physical jobs, you could burn out your body for something other than yourself. In creative jobs, you could burn out your soul. Either way, it would be dehumanizing. Completely mindless jobs and incessantly mindful jobs could both be harmful to us.

His main job currently is as Director of Information Strategy where he interacts with records managers, archivists, librarians, information technologists, academics and university managers. From a position of being none of the above, James has on a number of occasions been described as an iconoclast as he does not hold dear much of the 'baggage' that these professions have accumulated through time. For two years he was on secondment to the University Learning and Teaching Centre, transforming the support of the University Virtual Learning Environment (Moodle) from a tool for enthusiasts into a well supported and managed service, during which time he was very much involved in the management and strategic planning of ICT in Learning and Teaching. James is also a Senior Research Fellow in the Humanities Advanced Technology and Information Institute (HATII), where he has, for the last ten years, been developing applied research into information issues drawing on his service and strategic experience and also more theoretical work on the nature of digital objects and the problems associated with their management, security and retention. James has been involved with the highly successful Glasgow MSc course in Information Management and Preservation since its inception, in which he teaches about the transition from storage of information on physical to digital media, the management and preservation of digital materials, information security, the role of numbers as information and a variety of other topics including risk and information management as an investment. In this latter context he was the Project Director of the espida project which developed a sustainable business-focussed model for digital preservation.
