Paris Airports

The Paris Aéroport sonic identity captures the magic of Paris through a luxurious, modern soundscape. Deployed throughout terminals and multimedia, it is an inviting landmark that enhances travelers' experiences and reinforces Parisian charm.

Paris Aéroport's sound identity is one of our brand's most precious assets. Over the years, it has become an icon of travel for passengers, but also for pop culture in general: we can't count the number of examples of its use by humorists, films, series, etc. What a treasure!

A radiant human dimension

Challenge

Faced with ever-increasing competition, Paris Aéroport needs to stay one step ahead and communicate effectively.

The Paris Aéroport sound identity was created on the occasion of a major rebranding in 2016. The challenge was immense: to convey the Parisian dream through music and sound, while welcoming travelers from all over the world. In 2022, the new communications charter gives pride of place and time.

As part of their Paris Airports brand identity overhaul, the brand turned to Sixième Son to help influence the perception of travelers and improve their experience through sound and music.

Sonic concept

A sonic identity rich in emotion, telling the story of luxury, magic and fairytale Paris with personality and creativity.

The sound identity was revamped in 2022: the fundamental elements remained unchanged, but the new look was more modern, clearer and punchier. Work on the voices made them more human, more contemporary and also brought clarity.

Outcome

The sound identity takes up the challenge of creativity but also functionality, providing a landmark in airport terminals and parking lots, as well as framing messages for telephony, multimedia and events.

It’s a landmark for everyday or occasional travelers, an invitation to travel. It can be found in many films that feature scenes set in Paris airports, and comments on social networks are raving about this sound identity and the memories it conveys.
