Adidas Football

The Predator is one of the most iconic football boots in history. Adidas London wanted to create a range of new print, digital and social ads to mark the relaunch of this historic boot along with the launch of two new boots, the X and Nemeziz.

We worked with the strapline for each boot to create illustrated assets for each boot. Each created to compliment the culture, history and design of each of the boots. For Instance, the Predator played on more of a retro, bold and graphic feel, whereas the X artwork played on the enhanced speed element and Nemeziz was all about being agile. Each artwork was brought to life using a bold colour palette and strong graphical elements that could be used throughout the advertising.

Connected: Branding & Art Direction for London recruitment agency

A previous client got in contact with a vision for their new startup which needed an entire branding package and brand structure for their new recruitment agency Connected. The brief was surprisingly open, as we had built up trust from years of delivering high standards of work meaning we were left time to work out the strategy, get to the core of what the new business was about, their key audience and demographic and what they were trying to achieve and accomplish before moving forward with the initial design and concept work. The brand launched last year and is already a success in the creative recruitment market.

We created bespoke illustrated patterns inspired by the sort of artwork a child might make which, along with the wordmark and bespoke typeface formed the core of the brand. We created a full suite of touch points from packaging design, artwork for the vans, out of home advertising, website and social content.
