Beautiful work for Waddesdon Wine from Paul Belford.

Waddesdon Manor is the historical country seat of the Rothschild family in the UK and home to Waddesdon Wine, the official distributor for the Rothschild collection of wines. The identity is designed to balance the rich tradition associated with Rothschild wines with a more modern approach to the wine business.

Great branding for Belinda Nowell by Maud.

Belinda Now­ell is a screen play writer who, hav­ing just foun­ded her own busi­ness, came to us for an iden­tity. Being that storytelling is an integ­ral part of her busi­ness, we developed this eleg­ant mark that com­bines a styl­ised book with a cap­ital “B”. The applic­a­tion of this mark then plays with ori­ent­a­tion, sug­gest­ing this duel meaning. The busi­ness card takes this idea a step fur­ther, sand­wich­ing a piece of white stock between two grey stocks to evoke the idea of a book.

Beautiful branding work for Spa Q by Maud.

QT Hotels approached us to design a brand for their first of sev­eral spas around Aus­tralia, with the stip­u­la­tion that the iden­tity of each should be inspired by the cul­ture of its loc­a­tion, the first being on Australia’s iconic Gold Coast. We took inspir­a­tion from col­our­ful beach huts and nat­ural stocks to cre­ate a vibrant and approach­able brand that avoids the expec­ted. The Logo and inform­a­tion sit on a clean pat­tern free sur­face, always opposed by an indi­vidual and strik­ing pat­tern. This jux­ta­pos­i­tion is designed to sug­gest the idea of stress & relief.
