To mark Sarto’s sixth anniversary, we returned to the brand to create social content that showcased its latest menu.

Combining photo and video, we directed content for digital channels, capturing the restaurant’s unique offering of fresh, handmade pasta in Leeds.

The project also included the launch of Sarto’s own wines, Rosso and Bianco, introduced as part of the birthday celebrations.

For almost 100 years, Spotlight has been the essential link between performers, agents and the world’s most successful casting directors.

We worked closely with the Spotlight team to create a sub-identity for the Spotlight Prize, an annual award that helps graduating actors launch their careers in front of leading industry professionals. Past finalists and winners include Judi Dench, Brian Cox, and Ben Whishaw.

Working across various print and digital deliverables, the designs are sensitive to the wider Spotlight brand while giving the 2025 edition a distinct look and feel.

Website design for Leodis, a talent management company representing a dynamic range of actors and creatives working across the entertainment industry.

We worked closely with director Daniel Hinchliffe to bring the visual identity to life online, creating a website that reflects the agency's energy, ambition and diverse talent.

The Leodis Prize launched alongside the new site – a bold initiative dedicated to championing unrepresented writers. The winning play will debut at the Edinburgh Fringe.

During Bradford’s year as UK City of Culture 2025, Bradford Live was beautifully restored and reopened by Trafalgar Theatres as a major cultural venue for live music, comedy and entertainment.

We were tasked with the roll out of the launch campaign, developing a flexible design system used across posters, venue screens, printed guides and other audience-facing materials.

During Bradford’s year as UK City of Culture 2025, Bradford Live was beautifully restored and reopened by Trafalgar Theatres as a major cultural venue for live music, comedy and entertainment.

As part of the launch event, we produced a video for the venue’s external screen, chronicling major moments from the venue’s 95-year history, including performances by The Beatles and The Rolling Stones in the 1960s.

Leeds’ latest watering hole. 🍻

Our logo and icon for draw inspo from Tetley’s beer mats of the late 1970s. The hexagonal shape and distinct 70s character runs through the rest of the branding and interior.

Introducing 🍻

We’ve been working with Whitelock’s Group to bring you their next Leeds venue. Think the fan favourite, , but in town, and BY THE WATER! Same modern pub vibes, cosy, cool and full of personality.

Much of the design inspiration for this venue came from old Tetley brewery ephemera, such as vintage beer mats, adverts, posters and more. As the name suggests, the pub is based on Leeds’ old Brewery Wharf, where back in the day, barrels, malt and hops would’ve been loaded and unloaded on a relentless basis. The perfect place for a new pub!

Collabssss! As part of our birthday identity for Fred Aldous Leeds, we have each creative collaborator a chance to respond to the branding with their own X design.

It was great to see the event branding take an entirely new direction and meaning, with each response entirely different from the next.

As well as products made for sale – from flower presses to mirrors – there was a super limited run of caps made available only from the Leeds store. A proper celebration of Leeds creatives!

X for 10. X for collaboration. X marks the spot for the big birthday bash! 🥳

As well as taking part in the birthday celebrations as one of the 10 creative collaborations, we also worked closely with the store to create some birthday branding.

The chosen route was a set of individual x’s, all featuring different colour and pattern. This sat alongside a carefully arranged logo mark, with the event title contained inside the shape.

The party brand was applied to everything from window graphics, banners, digital, social and more.

Our favourite part might be the artists interpretation of the concept, more soon. 👀
