New work for hat maker Awon Golding.

Awon’s creations have graced the heads of global icons, but the brand needed a glow up to compliment the hats.

We designed an elegant & joyful visual identity inspired by the hats, with a playful tone of voice. Topped off with a new logo.

Here are some little details to whet your appetite though! Just look at those letters! And drawn on fabric folds too!

We recently went to Toulouse-Lautrec & the Masters of Montmartre exhibition on at the Victoria Art Gallery in Bath. It’s got some great lettering & lithography. We can recommend visiting it.

Beyond a new symbol, we introduced an identity system to be used across stationery, members’ handbook and invites. The new look balanced crisp, modern typography and a strong graphic structure with expressive letterpress printed type from our collection.

This year, our client Ava Investors hosted their second Masterclass, where they were joined in conversation with world leading economist & ex-world leader Mario Draghi.

As Ava’s long-term brand partners, we created the comms for the event—from digital invites to venue graphics.

We’ve enjoyed working on the new Haute Dogs logo, because who doesn’t love dogs in hats for charity?

Each job we do starts in a different place, so inspiration comes from different places too. For our rebrand of Cyprus Kitchen, we looked to founder Nick’s Cypriot heritage and discovered a world of pottery from 11th–4th Century BC.
