Science and Innovation Centre Split

The Science and Innovation Centre of the University of Split is an infrastructural project envisaged to empower research and supportive capacities as well as the global competitiveness of the University.

The University of Split has initiated the founding of a Science and Innovation Centre to become an incubator of excellence in scientific research. Its research activities will be directed towards solving various social challenges in the fields of energy, environment, food and nutrition, health, safety, and connectivity with the aim of achieving a sustainable, circular, and blue economy. Filburg designed its visual identity and a promotional brochure that presents the project in its early stage.

A dynamic and suggestive symbol with multiple meanings forms the basis of this identity. With its circular form, it communicates striving for perfect harmony whilst its constituent elements evoke constant movement, meetings within the communal space, and waves of innovative impulses. The relation with the logotype is harmonious whilst the symbol itself offers many possibilities, flexibility, and different types of behaviour – from individual graphical compositions derived from the symbol's elements to its functionality in spatial signage and potential for animation in digital media.
