Hank’s Bagelry by Studio Ongarato
Sometimes, a brand identity can be deeply strategic, have a rich heritage or an involving narrative. Other times, it can be simply eye catching and cool. Suites of custom designed icons, art directed photography, tone of voice, motion behaviours, programmatic graphic elements and bespoke in-house content generating tools…. not every brand needs these. They’re colours to paint with. I call...

Sigma by Stockholm Design Lab
You could argue that there’s a fair few similarities in terms of Japan and Sweden’s approach to design, and the aesthetics of life more generally. Both are known often for a specific kind of minimalism – a tastefulness that eschews fluff, luxuriates in crisp whites and keeps its edges, everything in its right place, rules and order and form following...
Teller by Werklig
The social and cultural activity of sharing stories has been, and continues to be, an essential part of human experience. Storytelling contributes to the cohesion of, and sometimes control over, individuals and groups, preserving and passing on knowledge, and instilling moral values. Many of us live by the values and knowledge established over thousands of years through stories. With improvisation...
Something a Wittl different
Hi! It’s Rich here, you’ll have to forgive me, this is a rare one-off message to the studio owners (and soon-to-launch studios) that follow BP&O. I wanted to introduce you to something that I’ve been working on over the last year, something that I think you might find useful. My co-founder Christian and I found a gap in the market...
Siuru by Bond
Estonia’s Siuru plays with important questions, subverting and, at the same time, fulfilling expectations. Is it an art museum? A library? A cinema? Or a cultural institution? For a Bond (Veikkausliiga, Saaristo, Cable Factory) the design studio in charge of developing a brand identity for Siuru, this raised the concern, how do you brand something that seeks not to be characterised...
Ding by Wildish & Co.
When I left the UK and landed in the Czech Republic – my home between 2010 and 2018 – I found a notable difference in advertising and branding between the two countries. Specifically, I saw an abundance of brand mascots. Now, of course, mascots were also used in the UK and have a global historical precedent, but I was struck...
Veikkausliiga by Bond
How do you bring the fans, teams, and stadiums of the northernmost league together under a shared identity that captures the energy and passion that defines it? For Bond (Saaristo, Cable Factory & Northstar Film Alliance), the answer was in plain sight… the scarf – strewn across the terraces, held high, no matter the team or the weather. Veikkausliiga is...
