New self-image, new claim, new logo, new corporate design
VOR is the largest transport association in Austria and has ensured nationwide mobility and comprehensive service for all passengers in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland with more than 40 rail and bus transport partners since 1984.
VOR wanted to become “more uncomplicated” and therefore introduced a uniform fare system for public transport in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland in 2016. This “simplicity” was also to be reflected in the brand identity.
