Addikt, in collaboration with Codesign, rebranded Tata Motors.

Idea

Over the period of a year, we created a new identity that suited the many Tata Motors products and expressions.

The new brand is based on 3 core attributes that drive all expressions: thoughtful, expressive & stimulating, and bold.

We approached the Tata Motors brand as a living brand where motion, sonic and visual are synergetic and of equal importance.

“Congratulations on a very comprehensive Motion Guidelines document. I don’t believe I have seen such a thorough and easy to understand Motion Guidelines document.Thank you for guiding us to make the Motion Guidelines central to our brand in an even more visual-centric world”

Results

A rebranding that communicates a future-ready automotive brand, cohesively and effectively. The Tata Motors identity system in motion brings to life a world of agile mobility solutions and communicates ideas, lives and aspirations.

As Tata Motors creates close to 300 artworks per day it was crucial to create a system that clearly communicates the identity system to all the agencies Tata works with. We created an easy-to-access online brand portal, to help agencies worldwide use brand assets like templates, colours, sonic and motion graphic assets coherently.

Sonic Features

The composed soundscape reflects the 3 core attributes – thoughtful, expressive & stimulating, and bold –and forms the base of all sonic expressions. The Tata Motors sound logo is distilled from the soundscape and is a distinctive sound that introduces and ends any audio-video communication.

Creating solutions for brands in motion.
