Till Death Tattoo
Like any good tattoo, a good brand should stand the test of time. To achieve this, we took elements of Neo–Traditional tattoo and applied it to contemporary brand design.
Using colours familiar to the Neo–Traditional style, we created a striking brand package using custom illustrations created by the shops very own. Alongside visual identity, merchandise & in-store branding, we refreshed the website to tie it all together.
The focus of the website centres around the artists that make up the studio. For each artist we have an icon logo, biography, along with a full gallery to show case their work. Scroll down to see how we brought Till Death to life.

RealCrunch
realCrunch was a concept brand created alongside a realSweet, and part of the realFoods family. In creating the packaging and brand for the oat cereal, we wanted to really show the raw and real aspect of the product. We created a splash texture using different colours associated with the flavours – also using this texture to create a window to show the contents of the product.
Other major aspects of the brand for realCrunch was the illustration of the fruit and flavours of the product. This style of illustrations again repeats the main idea of showing raw and real, this is done through a water colour style illustration, again using the splash texture.
Manunui Coastal Estate
We created a small brand & simple one page website for Manunui Coastal Estate – a real estate group showcasing a beautiful part of New Zealand. In creating the logo we wanted a premium yet simplistic feel, the colours of gold, and off-whites where used to represent the amazing surrounding beaches, while the simple “M” monogram logo and the contrasting dark black. Due to the size of the website we really focused on a user experience and layout for the one page website to truly show the full experience of Manunui.
