Signage & Wayfinding,

Synchro Yards sits on the site of Porto Montenegro's former shipyard and synchrolift—a heritage that shaped the character of this ultra-luxury development by Kerzner. With waterfront residences, a 5-star IVO hotel, beach club, restaurants, and more, the client needed wayfinding that reflected the refinement expected of the brand. We developed a signage concept that draws directly from the precision and craftsmanship of luxury yachting, translating nautical heritage into a contemporary wayfinding language.
