The Sustainable Innovation Academy



The Sustainable Innnvation Academy is a learning platform that equips professionals with the necessary skills and methods to (re)design services and business models to drive impactful and revolutionary sustainable transformations for their clients.

As a sub-brand under a strict corporate system, the logotype had to stay untouched. To create distinction without breaking the rules, I built a modular system using color and pattern. These elements can be layered in when more expression is allowed or removed entirely when full compliance is needed.

Each color block maps to a key theme: green for systems and sustainability, blue for innovation, yellow for real-world impact. Paired with simple geometric motifs, they create a visual language applied across decks, social posts, and workshop materials.



In addition, a total of 24 working canvases were created as an essential toolkit to enhance participant engagement. These canvases, printed in A2 format and laminated for both durability and sustainability, allow participants to repeatedly write and erase, making them perfect for reuse. The design was ideated and developed within Mural, facilitating seamless collaboration with all stakeholders.
