Balfron Tower is an iconic brutalist building in East London designed by Ernő Goldfinger. As part of its redevelopment by Londonewcastle, we created a brand identity, typeface (Balfron Modern), visual language, and creatively directed the project to reflect the building’s heritage qualities in a contemporary way.
