Mabledon Group branding

I was approached by Mabledon Group, a big international company that own Mabledon House and use it as their centre of business. The client had decided to develop the estate in to luxury houses and needed a branding that represented this new proyect and that would appeal to industrialists, bankers, businessmen and political contacts. The House itself has a very interesting history. Mabledon - the house was designed and built by James Burton in 1805. His son Decimus Burton added to the property after he had trained as an archetect and went to become a very influencial London architect and eventually was knighted. The client had a pretty clear idea on having an M as the symbol and since the house has such great history I decided to use one of the many original hand painted letters as the branding M. The brief for this project was to have a luxury high end clean and simple look.
