The project
Being a local start-up the budget was tight to non existent. I felt a strong presence on the draft tap was vital without the support of other media. We went with a round acronym logo that was easy to apply to draft taps and bottle tops.
We then set to task on designing and launching DBC’s first two beers. The Hot Blonde, a lusty light ale and the Amber Jack, a mild amber Ale. Both beers have exceeded expectation and are already on their 20th batch.
The Nor’Easter is our latest addition, inspired by seafarers tales and of
“Here be dragons” we took our inspiration from maps of old.
The project
Brand identity

Graphic language
Branding and collateral
Goalsfirst
GoalsFirst is an innovative boutique asset management company that creates personally tailored investment strategies.
We were tasked with creating the brand from the bottom up, positioning, brand strategy, identity and visual assets.
Positioning them as a trusted boutique for high end family offices. The highlight of the logo is the exclamation mark (dot).
It embodies the idea of impact and excellence. We created a visual palette of spaces and places built by time, weathered
and strengthened through storms. The visual language, a combination of manufactured and controlled beauty and the raw
unpredictable power of the sea. We developed a bespoke graphic language to tell our unique story.
Analytical by design, human by nature. Finance is always a combination of people and money never one without the other.
These wild spaces and volcanic rock the perfect backdrop for a contemporary, luxury brand.

Brave by design and human by nature.
Ecclesiastical
Strategy, brand identity, visual language, advertising and digital
Agency: Teamspirit (VCCP)
Ecclesiastical is a specialist insurer with over 130 years’ experience looking after the things people truly care about, across the heritage, cultural, faith, charity and community areas.
The team worked with Ecclesiastical to develop a fresh strategy and positioning that would affirm their position as a guiding light for both their sector and the communities they serve. This was then translated into a bold new visual identity that brings together all the elements of what they do to help protect, preserve and restore what matters most to people.
The branding is dynamic, conveying Eccles unrivalled expertise and impact, as well as challenging outdated opinions and expectations of the company. The new star logo made up of six shards reflects Ecclesiastical’s commitment to excellence and leading position within its sector, with a subtle nod to its heritage. Outside the logo, the shards become a flexible device to create angular graphics that interact with visuals and copy, and further allude to the brand’s role a guiding, shining light.
The primary orange brand colour was maintained. However, it was updated with a gradient to increase appeal to a modern, broader audience. Similarly, a vibrant and flexible secondary palette was devised that allowed the brand to flex across corporate, client and community spaces and communications.
Uni Neue, a clean san serif font, was chosen as the primary brand typography as it combines accessibility and approachability with a sense of clarity and authority. The combined result is a bold, modern, and inclusive brand that celebrates its rich heritage and belief that ‘if it’s special, it deserves specialist insurance.’
