HELEO Architecture & Design
Challenge the status quo

HELEO is an award-winning architecture and design practice dedicated to creating innovative experiences through the built environment. With offices in San Diego and Los Angeles, they specialize in commercial, retail, adaptive re-use and residential markets. They strive to push the boundaries of what is possible and create solutions that are both aesthetically pleasing and socially responsible.

The new identity captures the dialogue between the built and the natural. The color palette feels lived-in yet elevated — designed to evolve, adapt, and breathe within space. The wordmark expresses architectural precision, with the roundness of the “O” softening the structure to introduce a subtle human contrast. The icon abstracts architectural rhythm into four vertical forms that, when repeated, create a dynamic graphic language unifying the identity.

After previous unsuccessful efforts to relaunch our website with another designer, Denzil was succinct and efficient, quickly aligning with our goals and translating them into a site that finally represented our firm's work. He delivered a clean, simple, and beautiful design we’re proud to share and it was a pleasure working with him.
