Nicholas' Vision of Functional and Aesthetic Design in Bahrain

Designed by Antonio Calvino & Alessia Visicaro

Nicholas is a collective of architects, designers, and building specialists based in the dynamic city of Manama in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Driven by a profound passion for architecture, the team is dedicated to delivering projects both locally in Bahrain and globally. Nicholas firmly believes in the transformative power of architecture. Their dedication extends beyond aesthetics, aiming to create functional spaces that enhance communities and the environment.

This vision inspired their logo design. The Circular typeface was modified so that letters such as “n” and “h” evoke one of architecture’s fundamental structures, the arch. The blending of the arch's circular, flowing lines with the typeface's geometry symbolizes the fusion of aesthetics and functionality that the Nicholas team strives for in their architectural projects. The brand identity is rooted in clean, functional aesthetics and the rational, geometric use of space, as demonstrated in the design of their social media and website.

His philosophy is anchored in research, a deep understanding of the problem, experimentation, and a relentless drive to enhance the design process.
