Dia have produced a beautiful set of typographic covers for A-Trak. Each cover is a clever interpretation of the track title. All produced in black and white, many of the concepts were derived from the animated version of the title as opposed to the flat graphic idea. This created a set of covers that work extremely well when static and moving—a perfect solution for social media applications and print. More here.
This graphic observation from Metahaven captures the popular reaction to the 2016 US presidential election. And in 140 characters or less.
The Makaton language programme combines speech and signing, to help people with learning or speaking difficulties. MultiAdaptor have re-branded the programme with an aim of ‘Giving everyone a voice’. The symbol combines speaking and signing in one clever little icon, with a hidden speech bubble created between the thumb and forefinger. It’s a logo that anyone can sign, whether they know Makaton or not. The wider identity uses playful language, warm photography and a vibrant colour palette?
Duck & Dry is a new blow dry bar in the heart of Chelsea, London. Designed by Wiedemann Lampe, the brand identity for the new venture revolves around a clever duck-shaped ampersand. Beautifully crafted, it gives the logo a lovely charm and a high end feel. All topped off with a soft duck egg blue colour palette and lots of strong copy.
A great idea for Artfinder by Design Studio. The missing dot from the ‘i’ in the logotype becomes the main character of the brand. Referencing the typical red dot stickers that are used in the art world to mark a piece of art as sold, the dot overlaps images, scales, crops and get’s used in a creative and playful way. Certainly makes buying art more fun and approachable. An extremely simple, relevant and iconic solution.
This new brand identity for London’s iconic Camden Market is a lovely example of type as a key brand idea. Based on the infamous Camden Market bridge sign – the typeface serves as a flexible way for the market to get across its diversity and history. The resulting black and white identity fits Camden’s non-conformist history perfectly.
A classically elegant, and thoroughly delightful, concept, beautifully executed by Werklig in Helsinki. The font choices are gorgeous and distinctive, the colours lively and charming. But it all comes down to that central logo, which says it all in a single mark. Pretty much perfect.
Jack Renwick Studio have created a new visual identity for the Carpenters Wharf development on Fish Island in Hackney. For 50 years the site played home to A. Younger, a luxury furniture maker, who shipped timber down the canals to use in their designs. Wood and timber form the inspiration for the name and striking typography. The logo itself cleverly combines a ‘C’ and a fish symbol with the use of a dovetail joint.
