A Logo and Identity Concept for the National Institute of Architecture (NAI) This design reflects NAI’s dedication to architectural heritage, innovation, and research. The visual identity balances tradition and modernity, embodying the institute’s mission to shape the future of architecture while honoring its past.

The logo and identity are inspired by the iconic floor pattern of the Kaunas Central Post Office, which highlights key architectural influences—nationalism, functionalism, and modernism.

The logo’s structure is monolithic and solid, reflecting an architectural essence, while the playful shift of the letter ‘i’ introduces lightness, a sense of place, and a dynamic reference to the floor pattern.
