Two striking elements combine to make Humble by Xavier Humbert a cheery brand to enjoy. TT Trailers Black with it’s idiosyncratic condensed M and B does the heavy lifting on the word mark and a “humble” king, who’s swapped his crown for a snazzy hat. I’m not sure it’s an original illustration, but I’ll give it […]

The Marmalade Pantry Branding
A tasty bit of branding for a Tuesday post Bank Holiday. The Marmalade Pantry is a small chain of 3 outlets in Singapore. Alongside the opening of a new bistro in the Oasia Hostel, Bravo has created a new identity for the brand. With some delicious colour combinations and a smart olive branch illustration, the whole […]
Qvalis Visual Identity
I’m never afraid to tell you that I love simple bold identities and Qvalis by Larssen & Amaral keeps things super clean. A health & fitness brand, the Q balances on it’s decender like a yogic master. The name is generously spaced, leaving it feeling super fresh and the combo of the peachy-pink and grey suits it down […]

Planer is an online and offline guide to selected cultural events in Tricity, Poland. It’s designed for Cultural Institute of Gdańsk and includes a website, outdoor posters, infographics, print materials and more.

Legs For Days by Futura
A quirky name for this Mexican clothing boutique, the design is sophisticated enough to appeal to ladies with regular legs too. The colour palette is sensational. Interestingly the name appears in 3 formats, a solid geometric sans-serif, a contrasting weight serif on the packaging and a handwritten version. Of the 3 I’d drop the serif, […]

Chesterfield is a large market town in North Derbyshire, I spent a good deal of time there whilst studying design at the FE College, and right at the end of 2014 the borough council revealed a new logo design. Created by local outfit Crush Design, the new logo features a rather abstract representation of the […]
The Airbnb logo looks like an A not balls, boobs or a bum
There have been a great number of words typed over the new Airbnb logo. I tend to agree with the more measured reviewers(try reading Graham Smith, Armin Vit, maybe Bill Dawson), that it’s a. Rather smartly implemented but b. A bit generic and c. not the most original. Its surrounded by all sorts of over the […]
Rutland Sewing Logo – Cut and Stitch
A little logo just developed by my own hand, Rutland Sewing is a sewing school and supplies store in Oakham. It’s unashamedly feminine and a little fussy, just like the store itself. Add in a sprinkle of the Rutland acorn and the logo is complete. It looks rather fetching on the Rutland Sewing website and […]
HMV Logo – a neon sign-ish
HMV, the much maligned, bankrupt and rescued UK music stores are having another crack at the whip, putting out some digital services for iOS and Android a digital music store with Shazam esq. song finder plus a “take a photo of an album” utility. There’s a DRM free incentive, but costs are on par with the […]
Kontoret Identity by Werklig
If kontoret had office space in my local city, Derby, then I’d be utterly tempted to rent space at it. The kontoret identity and assets created by Werklig are nothing short of lovely. I’m a sucker for icons you see, which are wonderfully crafted here, and pink biros it seems. Starting from the core business […]

Stereo works with BBC on Playlister look
I like the supporting materials (and the idea) more than the logo itself, which is, at its core, a little dull… Stereo develops Playlister identity, and the look and feel of the new streaming service. Read the original article on Design Week – Branding »
New logo: Kanal 11
I like the lively punk almost psychedelic feel and the simplicity. Kanal 11 is a Swedish television channel. Formerly known as TV11, it was acquired to Discovery Communications last spring. On October 1, it was relaunched under a new name to align it with the company’s other Swedish entertainment channels, Kanal 5 and Kanal […]
