Our identity.

Our visual identity centres on a simple, clean, and bold wordmark built on the dualistic approach of looking at the globe and the ocean as one. We start with the round shape of the globe and put the Ocean at the centre in the form of an abstract wave. The round shape can also be seen as a porthole, highlighting the seafarer perspective and our focus on safety and security.
