Bikedot
Jim Sutherland
Rob Duncan:

Bikedot is a new company that builds, sells and curates bikes, parts, and clothing. They have 30 years of experience with many of the world’s leading bike builders. They also have partnerships with premium bike manufacturers. Their new brand identity by Studio Sutherland cleverly builds a brand language out of tire treads and abstract patterns of the word 'Bike'. I hope they actually manufactured bike tires with these bespoke prints as well! Very fun, fresh idea and brand for a bike company.

Eames Institute
Manual
Mike Reed:

A beautifully simple, charming identity to meet one of those briefs that might easily feel overwhelming. Balancing respect for the heritage with a playful lightness of touch is an incredibly delicate business. Manual have pulled it off magnificently. That curious e is a masterstroke.

Instacart
Wolff Olins
Lyam Bewry:

Smart rebrand for Instacart by Wolff Olins in collaboration with Instacart's internal team that brings new meaning and design finesse to their carrot symbol. The application examples so far tease some nice moments for how the new logo and brand system could roll out. Learn more here.

Snøhetta
Dominic Hofstede:

An elegant and intelligent wayfinding system by Norwegian multi-disciplinary firm Snøhetta for the Groupe Le Monde Headquarters in Paris.

Three Beers
Alt Group
Dominic Hofstede:

A self promotion for Alt Group from a few years back that is both minimal and magnificent. If the pun escapes you, ask a NZ friend to say ‘three bears’ …

Balenciaga and Gucci
Rob Duncan:

Gucci and Balenciaga joined forces to share their fashion ideas through 'The Hacker Project'. To promote this campaign graffiti was used to adorn the facias of 74 Balenciaga stores as well as bespoke shopping bags and limited edition products. Confusing and delighting shoppers while keeping security guards on their toes was a perfect, unexpected way of drawing attention to these iconic luxury brands.

Food Society
Bleed
Dominic Hofstede:

A simple idea executed well by Bleed. The Food Society logo embodies the idea of community; the collective ‘O’ represents the shared point where different kitchens come together under one roof in Norway's only “dine-in-first” restaurant concept.

Proof of Delivery
Ricky Adam
Lyam Bewry:

Love the latest project from Leeds-based photographer Ricky Adam that documents the wild assortment of photographs taken by courier drivers as part of their job to prove the delivery of their packages.

FA Cup Royal Mail Stamps
The Chase
Lyam Bewry:

The Chase pushing the format of special edition British stamps – by removing the typical white-space on one edge, they've created goal posts around each image.
