Galamb Tailoring: New brand identity to reflect the highest quality handmade suits

If you happen to be in Hungary and you're in need of decent attire, then Galamb Tailoring offers the highest quality, handmade suits in Budapest. "Galamb" means "dove" in Hungarian, and the name comes from the store's previous location on Galamb Street.

Before opening its exclusive downtown salon they called upon Dekoratio Branding & Design Studio and Kevin Harald Campean to carry out a full rebrand, creating a visual identity that reflects the key elements of the brand: style, perfection and tradition.

Speaking of the project, Kevin said: "Galamb Tailoring embraces the 100 years old tradition of bespoke tailoring with a delicate touch of modernity. They create luxury suits for gentlemen who seek elegance without compromise. Each and every Galamb suit is a masterpiece made of exquisite materials, close to 5,000 stitches and months of passionate, detail-focused work.

"My aim was to capture the brand’s essence in a simple, elegant yet instantly recognisable way. I created a symbol of a jacket’s collar and lapels that resonates with bespoke tailoring but also emerges into a flying dove. The colour palette is dominated by dove grey, complemented with elegant black."
