Heaviside

Black brand panels with the mark, a technical drawing, and ballistic arcs, staged in a dark studio beside a vehicle model

Heaviside is preparing to leave stealth. I owned the brand strategy, visual identity, and design system. Some details are generalized for confidentiality.

The brand mark: a minimal white vapor-trail form angled upward on black
