Who's in the house
Be seated
We created a communications campaign, Take your seat, for Wexford Festival Foundation, who are charged with raising a community contribution of €7m towards the building of Wexford Opera House.
The campaign allows patrons to dedicate a seat at the new Opera House, with a plaque discreetly displayed on the seat of their choice. It follows our communications campaign to local businesses seeking pledges to support and sponsor the house.

Design for growth
We devised a new name and designed a new brand identity for this growing healthcare clinic, OAK, Osteopathy Associates Killaloe.

We designed a brand mark which captures the spirit and warmth of the business. The characters were extended into a 'family' of illustrated kids used for various promotional materials and signs (see below).
