The Brief
The challenge here was not only to refresh and evolve the brand but to also clearly distinguish it away from the parent brand of thyssenkrupp. With an award winning product line that reaches from mid-tier to luxury, there was also clear opportunity to elevate the brand from a potentially clinical feeling mobility look, into to a more aspirational lifestyle space.
Access BDD make life easier by supplying stairlifts, homelifts and platform lifts to dealers across Europe, South-East Asia, the Middle East & North Africa. With a mission statement of “Access everywhere, for everyone” their brand is built around a core of empowerment through innovation.
The Solution
Access previously carried the suffix BDD (business development division). As they are now establishing themselves as a separate personality to thyssenkrupp this was the first thing to jettison. The simplification continued with a neutral black and white palette, two cuts of a custom designed Access typeface and an elegant integration of the previous arrow logo inside an all new vertical wordmark.

Access for all
Less is more
“What we’ve created is a fusion of consumer technology brands and luxury interior design, giving us something that we think is a really fresh. It's a unique brand for the home mobility market. We were delighted with the reception the new brand received, and we’re excited about what it means for the future of Access BDD and our partner network.”
