About the project

Onuā – Naming and branding for a practice with a long history

After more than 20 years as Massage Altstetten, the practice got a new name and an identity that comes closer to how Ansel Papic, Medina and their team treat people: calmly, carefully and precisely.
A name with calm and warmth
Onuā wasn’t meant to feel like starting over. It was meant to give a clear shape to something that had been there all along. The name steps away from the old, purely local practice name and makes room for a brand that brings therapy, massage and holistic bodywork together under one warm roof.
Visual identity
The identity works with organic patterns, soft typography and a natural palette of warm earth tones, deep green and light paper shades. It turns touch, movement and renewal into a system that stays calm without becoming generic.
Brand guide
The brand guide sets out how the logo is used, along with typography, colours, patterns and visual rules for digital and physical touchpoints. That way Onuā looks consistent everywhere, from the sign on the door to the website, without losing the personal warmth of the practice.

Client feedback

Markus and his team looked really closely at our naming, branding and website. They thought of so many details we probably would never have noticed ourselves. That’s exactly what impressed us.
