With 60 titles to date, Borussia Düsseldorf is Europe's most successful table tennis club and Germany's most successful sports club of all. Top-class players such as Timo Boll – who was ranked number one in the world in 2011 – also ensure continued media interest.

The Task

To present the club's excellent performance appropriately to the public, the table tennis record champions Borussia are initiating a revision of their brand presence. We are commissioned to develop a new corporate design based on the analysis by the agency „Deutsche Markenarbeit“.

The Solution

Typography and imagery reflect the dynamism and artistic lightness of table tennis. The lion, as a proud, fighting animal, symbolises the club and creates the local connection to Düsseldorf.

The Implementation

We design the new business stationery and promotional materials for the current season and revise the website and newsletter. For the Borussia Düsseldorf Sporthotel, the Andro TT-Schule and the Andro Kids Open, we develop a sub-brand concept.

Bevelled areas can be used as a further design element. The angle of this slope is derived from the angle of the house typeface CA Normal in its italic style and is therefore always 12°.
