Still in a world of motion

We help ambitious brands find clarity, build with purpose, and express what makes them distinct—through strategic insight and high-end craft. From Klarna’s global motion identity to AirUp’s sensory system and SWIFT’s full-spectrum rebrand, our work is precise, expressive, and built to scale.

The power of duality

In Swedish, motiv means both motive; the reason behind — and motif; the form it takes. That duality defines our work. We uncover the why, then shape it into something visual, intentional, and alive.

Looking ahead

Most brands chase attention — we focus on what stays. By blending design thinking, perception science, and artistic intuition, we use motion, story, and structure to build brand systems that connect and endure.

STUDIO MOTIV stays still

We work with movement — which is why we stay still. Our unanimated logotype is a deliberate choice, giving us the distance to observe, question, and design with precision. From that stillness, we create systems that move with intent.

What we believe

• Motion creates meaning

• Design is method

• Simplicity empowers

• The right question unlocks the right outcome

• Precision over excess

• Technology should elevate humanity

• Identity lives in memory, not just on screens
