Fuel For Fans
GBH
Jamie Ellul:

Fuel For Fans was launched in 2016 as the official e-commerce store for all major teams in Formula 1. GBH were tasked with giving it an iconic, credible logo, worthy of that status. After all F1 fans are a discerning bunch, with design right at the centre of the sport. The solution is deceivingly simple. Once GBH saw the potential for a chequered flag within the three F’s of the name, they spent weeks crafting it. The result is one of those lovely logos that appears effortless.

The perfect marriage between concept and execution, this iconic cover speaks for itself. Elegant, simple and witty. Genius!

The CSPD Annual Report
WAX
Paul Felton:

The CSPD (Calgary Society for Persons with Disabilities) is a not for profit organization that provides individualized residential services to persons with disabilities. Placing a single staple in the centre of their annual report creates a simple, yet incredibly powerful metaphor for the struggle that people with disabilities face every day of their lives.

Igloo
Interbrand
Mike Reed:

What I love most about this delightful identity is that Interbrand embraced one of the oldest visual clichés ever – a double-O turned into eyes – and made it fresh. Bold, relevant, revelling in both the visual and the verbal: this is how branding should be.

Sydney Opera House
Interbrand Sydney
Rob Duncan:

Beautifully crafted idea by Interbrand Sydney for the Sydney Opera House. Sail shaped blends interacting with photography and 3D typography all reference back to the iconic shape of the building. It’s a superb brand language  working cohesively with the lovely symbol. So unique and ownable by this particular Opera House. More images and motion graphics can be seen here on Interbrand’s site.

Elbow
Christopher Doyle & Co
Jamie Ellul:

An identity for a new strategic agency specialising in the healthcare industry. Christopher Doyle & Co devised an appropriate name and simple typographic visual language which is playful and strikingly simple.

Wove
Manual
Rob Duncan:

In late 2015, Polyera announced the Wove™ Band, as the world’s first flexible display product. The Wove band features a flexible always-on touch display which can either lay flat or wrap around a wrist. Manual have created the brand identity, compositions, packaging and photography style. At the core of the brand identity is the logo—The shifting weight of individual characters conceptually echoes the nature of the display which is completely customizable and ever-changing.

Pain, Toni Amengual
Atlas
Pablo Juncadella:

On the cover of this book you can read the word PAIN. When looking at the spine, you see the Spanish flag, immediately recognizing that this is going to be about sPAIN. When initially browsing the book the reader is faced only with blank pages. Once you see that it has been french folded you need to inflict some PAIN on the book to get at the content. On slicing open the Spanish flag you then find the work of photographer Toni Amengual highlighting the Spanish crisis. Bravo for Atlas!!!

Society for Experimental Biology
Purpose & Radda
Stuart Youngs

A bold network of lines and shapes contrast with beautiful biological illustrations and striking colours, capturing the unique spirit and vibrancy of the SEB’s extraordinary connections and its expanding network.

The dynamic and ever-changing ‘E’ element within the logo emphasises the experimental nature at the heart of the organisation. The result: a distinctive logo and brand identity that feels alive with science.
