AFIA

Identity, Art Direction

The Australian Finance Industry Association are the leading advocate and collective voice for advancing Australia’s financial services industry.

We created a monogram that is an innovative visual shortcut of the organisation’s acronym. An inclusive and integrated A, F, I and A, particularly playing into the future currency of ‘Fi’. A key consideration was the logos ability to hold its own within members’ environments, where it is applied to denote business membership to the organisation, as well as business compliance to particular industry codes.

IKU

Identity / Art Direction / Digital / Packaging / Iconography

IKU are a Sydney institution, cooking up delicious plant-based food since the 80's. They came to us in search of a deliciously different visual and verbal identity that would set them apart in the DTC space while still staying true to the roots they put down in their Sydney storefront almost 40 years ago.

IKU’s identity is as vibrant and enticing as the food they create. It’s a beautiful and inviting celebration of all the ways in which (plant-based) food can change your world. By channeling the past and remembering the foundations they were built on, we were able to create a brand for both the future of their business and the planet.

Universal Favourite

Identity / Website Design / Animation

While working at Universal Favourite I was asked to rebrand the studio. The main aim was to create a brand that gave the studio its own personality but was also adaptable to change. The core of the identity is an ever-changing universe, representing the different clients, approaches, personalities and ideas that flow through the studio each day.

Identity / Packaging / Illustration

Dr. Dri’s is a Canadian company that creates all-natural products for the home, starting with (care of “unprecedented times”) a hand sanitiser. Despite its basis in health, it makes its mark as a direct-to-consumer and retail lifestyle brand, with products as beautiful as they are effective.

Shorty's

Naming / Identity

A 6’6” man needed a fresh face and name for a café he’d recently purchased. After much deliberation we realised the name was right under our noses, and thus Shorty’s was born. A pair of wobbly legs became the hero of the brand which we paired with some coffee-themed type lockups. On the award circuit Shorty’s won silver at the Best Awards 2018 and was an AGDA finalist in 2017.

Stone's Throw

Naming / Identity

A freshly renovated bar and restaurant in Adelaide with a very nice atrium-like courtyard. A modern watering hole for discerning locals. We loved the idea of a go-to local and landed on Stone’s Throw as an irreverent moniker. A set of illustrations, embodied by their oddities, play off the sophisticated logo and allow the venue to feel welcoming and homely.
