Brand Identity

01

Info

Naming, the mark, and the system that holds it together: type, colour, layout rules and the logic behind each one.

Photography

02

Info

Briefing, casting, location, shoot days and the edit. We set a spec before anyone picks up a camera.

Packaging & Print

03

Info

Structure, materials, finish and print specification, taken through to files a factory can run without a single phone call.

Motion & 3D

04

Info

Identity that moves, and objects rendered properly rather than pulled from a stock library.

I drew that logo at my kitchen table and assumed it would go. Six months on, the tin and the can still come back matching, and I’ve stopped checking the proofs.

Customers come in with the photo on their phone and ask for that earring. When we put it on the counter, it looks the same.

Layla HaddadLayla HaddadCo-founder, Legacy Jewellery

Half the people at the counter ask about the tray before they ask about the pastry. We reorder it every Monday with the cups.

Omar SalehOmar SalehOwner, Flux Coffee

We showed up with three jars and a spreadsheet. A year later, people wear our cap to the supermarket.

Femke de VriesFemke de VriesCo-founder, Salty

It sits next to people’s toothbrushes now, not in the beach bag. The reorders tell us they use it every morning.

Reese AlucardReese AlucardFounder, Sunbase

We make these clothes for noon, and for once the pictures look like our street at noon.

Tiago MoreiraTiago MoreiraFounder, Dendezeiro®

No two of our jackets match, so the label had to be the one thing that always does.

People come in for a coffee in the morning and come back at night for the records, and they know it’s the same place.
