BACKGROUND
VOYA operates in the travel and tourism industry, offering flights, hotels, car rentals, and travel packages. Its differentiation lies in connecting like minded travelers through shared costs and collective journeys. The logo expresses this concept through distinct geometric letterforms that fit together into one unified wordmark, representing individuals coming together to share experiences. The color palette combines deep blue and light blue to symbolize connection, trust, and open exploration, reflecting both the reliability of planning and the freedom of travel. This visual language extends across the interface and brand system through rounded geometry, modular grids, and consistent spatial rhythm, creating a cohesive identity that feels modern, approachable, and human centered.
