Velivolo

Velivolo aims to bring back the lost art of craftsmanship due to the ever evolving technology based world and brings people back to rediscover the enjoyment of the hands on approach to building and creating. This is a craftsmanship hub that educates those wanting to delve themselves into the art of creating by hand, in an environment that brings like minded individuals together and encourages through collaboration and exploration.

The Branding

Although users of the space are autonomously welcomed by the sound and visual cues of progress from the large roller doors being open during opening hours, the main entry welcomes users by enticing them into the space through the main entry. Once they have booked in and allowed through the threshold, they are greeted by a light and progress filled space with bounds of opportunity.

an areoplane, helicopter, or other machine capable of flight.

A human is a machine capable of reaching great heights if they are given the correct tools and support to explore their creativity.
