VS L'Ancora — Shopping centre
The challenge

One brand for six different businesses.

VS L'Ancora brings together a supermarket, bar, pastry shop, tobacconist, boutique and other services in a single centre. It needed a simple, reassuring identity — a “safe harbour” for everyday life — and a clear site presenting every department with a single voice.

Research & moodboard

A safe harbour: the anchor, the sea, trust.

The brand

The anchor, a symbol of stability.

The mark revolves around a stylised anchor — a direct nod to the name “L'Ancora” — in cyan and navy tones: clean, recognisable, easy to read on signs and totems even from a distance.
