Concept
Kintsugi

Hama Seaside Luxury Apartments offers refined seaside living by the beach in Corinth. The brand had to carry the serenity of the place and give a new property a name, a character and a story worth remembering.

At VIMA GURU, we built the brand from the ground up, starting with its name. Its concept draws on kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with precious metals: just as the golden seams make every piece unique, every experience adds its own beauty to life’s journey. The logo, the typography, the palette and the storytelling all grow from that single idea.

02 The approach

One idea, from the name to every detail.

At VIMA GURU, we worked on three levels that function as one: the name and the concept, the visual identity, and the storytelling that gives the brand its voice.

01

Name & concept

We named the brand and shaped its concept around kintsugi. The idea gives Hama a story of its own and a reason behind every design decision that follows: resilience, growth and the beauty found in each guest’s own journey.

Included

  • Brand naming
  • Brand concept
  • Positioning for luxury seaside hospitality

02

A visual identity of sky and sea

The logo reflects the delicate artistry of kintsugi: fluid lines and subtle cracks that echo the ebb and flow of the nearby sea. The typography draws on the grace and simplicity of Japanese aesthetics, while the palette mirrors the hues of the sky and the sea.

Included

  • Logo and symbol
  • Typography
  • Colour palette
  • Business cards and brand applications

03

Storytelling & tone of voice

Our storytelling embraces the wisdom of kintsugi and turns it into the voice of the brand: calm, refined and personal. The same voice carries Hama from its identity to its website and to every point of contact with its guests.

Included

  • Brand storytelling
  • Tone of voice
  • Copywriting
  • Application across the website
