  • AGMA
    Having worked with AGMA on their annual report for a number of years it became clear that their previous branding was not functioning as efficiently as it should when used in certain situations.

    The AGMA logo has always featured a pyramid of 10 cubes, each of those cubes representing one of the 10 Borough Councils of Greater Manchester.

    Our job was to keep this synonymous mark intact, but recreate the typography to create a new, modern logo that would increase legibility and reproduce better at small sizes.

  • Club Earth
    The moon revolves around the earth which in turn revolves around the sun. Captured at just the right moment this creates an abstract ‘c’ and ‘e’. Further typography is influenced by these eliptical forms.

  • Commonwealth Games Business Club
    Corporate identity design for a Manchester-based business consortium to generate awareness globally.

    The central motif contains arcs of concentric lines, which have a suggestion of dynamism and upward mobility. This motif was incorporated into the body of the letterheads and other stationery as a page border.

  • Subversive Spaces
    Through research into the work in the show and the artists featured we discovered that a lot of the pieces were intended to provoke thought in the viewer and appear awkward. We built on this theme and produced a strong typographic logotype that used three different planes of perspective and both positive and negative type.

    Established in 1988, Liverpool Tate celebrated its tenth birthday in 1998. The rectangular lozenge that ‘The Tate’ brand rests in and the retro digital type forms the design. A single icon representing 88 and 98 was developed, using the Tates’ corporate colours.
