Evoq Rebrands Ernst Göhner Stiftung
Ernst Göhner Stiftung, a major Swiss grant-making foundation based in Zug, unveiled a new visual identity, multilingual accessible website, a digital brand style guide and a new reports/publication system. The Zurich branding and design agency Evoq Communications developed the identity, which foregrounds the shortened mark “EGS”, combines a serif display logotype with the grotesque typeface Piz Grotesk, and uses a petrol green primary colour with violet and ochre accents. The project includes documentary-style photography, bespoke infographics, and an automated layout solution for the foundation’s accountability report drawing on data from over 2,000 funded projects. Evoq also delivered the technical implementation (including programming) and the editorial/design system for publications.

SwissHoldings, a Swiss business association, unveiled a new visual identity and website, designed and developed by Bern-based agency Studio Thom Pfister. The core of the redesign is a new wordmark combining the initials 'S' and 'H', with the reduced 'H' subtly referencing the Swiss cross to evoke a connection to Switzerland through typography rather than illustration. The entire design system, including modular layouts, is derived from the geometry of the mark. New imagery featuring transparent glass objects symbolizes themes such as law, dialogue, growth, networking, and responsibility, complemented by photographs from business, politics, and society. The new website features a clear information architecture and a members-only area.
