Located in the beautiful area of rhineland palatina, surrounded by vineyards, forest and nature it is a historical, well known institution with a lot of heritage to it.

They recently got a new owner and needed to reposition, elevate the perception of the house and become more attractive to a younger audience while maintaining the heritage and doesn’t scare the current target audience.

Brand Strategy

In the brand strategy meeting we defined the goals, the vision of the house and it’s audience. It was clear that we needed to be very careful to find the balance between attracting a younger audience but also not scare the current one.

Brand Design

Hero of the new brand design is the custom logotype. It pays tribute to the characteristics of their old one, but translates them into a more modern, sophisticated logo.


The monogram is constructed out of the l and h and is shaped like their iconic arched gate. The conceptual idea was to evoke the feeling of arriving at the hotel with every contact someone has with the new brand.

The newly created tagline »Freiraum für dich« (space for you) conveys their mission to help their guests to relax, calm down and unwind in the leading hide away in the region.


With the custom typeface every character transforms into a brand ambassador – combined with premium printed products the premium aspiration of the house gets communicated on every touchpoint the guests have with the brand.

An extensive brand manual makes sure every touchpoint is consistent and the internal marketing team of the house can work with it efficiently.
