Climate Emergency Fund is the world’s premier funder of disruptive climate action. They are a safe bridge between funders and activists at the cutting edge of the climate movement. The visual identity we created for them is bold and simple. It doesn’t shy away from the urgency of our situation – instead it shines out as a beacon of hope in times of crises. The visual language solidifies the organisation’s clarity of message around the climate and ecological emergency, as well as its theory of change around how to tackle it effectively.

Take back power is a pro-democracy movement using nonviolent civil resistance to take back power from the super rich who corrupt and control our politics.

We collaborated with the team to create a visual identity to launch the campaign. There was a need for a symbol that is easily recognised and easily reproduced whether on banners, t-shirts, posters, or projected onto the Palace of Westminster.

We continued to meet these needs by creating a simple yet distinctive visual language based around three colours and three geometrical shapes that can be used in different combinations to communicate their core messages and demands: a permanent house of the people with powers to tax the rich and fix Britain!

Ahead of COP30, Climate Action Network International launched an advocacy briefing to help their member organisations pressure world leaders to be more ambitious. Their report showed many G20 nations were either missing the mark or had failed to submit NDCs altogether. We were commissioned to translate their findings into simpler terms in order to create a shareable and engaging social media campaign.
 
We developed a visual concept, top line messaging based on their briefing, produced graphics, wrote copy for captions and emails and created a social media toolkit for groups to access and use the materials all around the world.

Blås & Knåda is a cooperative space and gallery for ceramicists and glass artists in Stockholm, Sweden. It was set up in 1975 as a way for artists to share costs, knowledge and experience. 50 år av kollektiv kraft (50 years of collective power) was made to celebrate Blås & Knåda’s 50th anniversary. The book mixes archive material and memories with new photography and essays about materiality and the importance of working together. The title is a play on Kraft – the Swedish word for power and the english word Craft.

We developed this website for the art & industry triennial in Dunkirk 2023 after being selected to produce something that responded to the theme of the art festival “to observe and understand energy activities and environmental upheaval, and the way in which they affect art”.
