Chromatic

With backgrounds that merge theatrical, interior design, and architectural perspectives, and decades of expertise in both the creative and technical aspects of lighting design, Lauren and Nick are now inspired to “illuminate what matters most.” This mutual passion for the power of light is what motivated them to join forces and co-found a new kind of lighting design practice focused on equity and inclusion.

Altitude was similarly inspired by Lauren and Nick’s passion and thoughtfulness as we developed Chromatic’s brand story and visual identity. The logo is based on the Gilbert font, which was created to honor American gay rights activist Gilbert Baker, designer of the iconic rainbow flag, a worldwide symbol of LGBTQ pride. A multicolored typeface, Gilbert was designed to express diversity and inclusion. Altitude’s color customization and gradient still present a spectrum of color, while also calling to mind light gels—referencing Chromatic’s professional services, its transparency regarding its social justice mission, and its overall approach to inclusion.
