Maelstrom
A bold name and identity for a disruptive fintech entrepreneur.
Maelstrom is the family office of cryptocurrency pioneer Arthur Hayes.
Arthur Hayes engaged North Street to develop a name and visual identity system consistent with his status as a provocative and fearless entrepreneur. A maelstrom, or powerful and violent whirlpool, suggests boldness and disruption. The resulting identity is dynamic and futuristic, mirroring the organization's investment focus in innovative organizations and causes.

A rubric inspired by Kubrick
The Maelstrom logomark is inspired by Arthur Hayes’ passion for all things sci-fi. The bold, dominating form is inspired by the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey and the “M” in Maelstrom.
