Overview

As part of the Ogilvy design team, I worked on the Iron Mountain brand refresh — helping translate a complex data-management and secure-storage proposition into clear, consistent visual communications. My work included iconography, document templates, interactive infographic design and storyboard development for the Chain of Custody video, all within a refreshed system built around trust, security and clarity.

The challenge

What the work had to solve

Iron Mountain needed to communicate highly practical, security-led services in a way that felt professional, accessible and visually consistent across print, digital and motion-led assets.

The solution

What Maria designed

The refreshed system used clean typography, a structured blue-led palette, ordered layouts and a flexible graphic device to create a more modern, trustworthy brand language. The work made complex information easier to navigate while maintaining the confidence expected of a global data-management brand.
