Design Week Consultancy Survey

Top 100 2011

We were waiting with bated breath for the postman yesterday morning to bring us news of the annual Design Week Consultancy Survey, and we were rewarded well.

 

 

We've jumped 9 places up the top 100 list to become the 45th biggest design agency in the UK.  The speed of our ascent was also recorded in the 'Fastest Growing list' where we placed 10th.  And we're very proud to be the youngest agency in the top 50.

 

 

Big thanks to all our staff and clients who have helped us achieve such great progress so quickly!

Plum Baby Website Launch

Posted on May 23, 2011 by Charlotte

Plum Baby website

We're very proud this morning to see that the Plum Baby website  has gone live!  The website launch is the latest stage in the rebrand of Plum Baby, which has seen us create a simpler but more distinct and impactful identity that has been used across multiple branded touch-points, including the implementation of elements that we have designed being used on the Plum baby website.

The introduction of a clear brand architecture that has a consistent approach throughout the portfolio of SKUs to improve navigability- both online and in-store, making it easier for parents to feed their babies real, wholesome recipes that will help them to develop an appetite for life.

Plum Baby offers organic super-food products for babies made from its own original and innovative recipes. Founded in 2004 by Susie Willis, a chef frustrated with the choice of foods available for her own children, the product range includes meals and cereals for babies aged from four months to just under a year.

Harry Hill Goes Nuts for BrandOpus Fairtrade Peanut Butter Design

Posted on May 16, 2011 by Charlotte

Harry's Nuts!We've just put the final touches to Harry’s Nuts! Crunchy Peanut Butter.  The jar, the design of which Harry himself was closely involved with, will will join the rest of the range on shelf from June.  The project follows on from our work on the Harry’s Nuts! snack nut range last year.

 

Harry’s Nuts! is a brand developed by Harry and Liberation Foods, the world’s only farmer-owned Fairtrade nut company.   Harry, who makes no money from the range, came up with the Harry’s Nuts! concept to help smallholder peanut farmers in Malawi, Mozambique, Nicaragua, and other farming groups in Asia and Latin America, sell their crops in the UK and not for ‘peanuts’ at the roadside.

 

Avril Tooley, client services director at BrandOpus, says, “Working with Harry again was an exciting opportunity to drive sales for this great cause.  We’re proud to be associated with a brand that aims to help such a large number of farmers in such a constructive way. The packaging design aims to be fun and playful, just like Harry, and follow in the successful footsteps of the wider Harry’s Nuts! range we designed last year”
