8. Client brief - NatWest The NatWest onecard recently won Best Business Card Programme at the Card Awards 2009.We were asked to create concepts for a customer facing campaign, targeted primarily at finance directors and owners of businesses with a turnover of between £5million and £25million. The concepts included direct mail and e-newsletters and leveraged the credibility the award afforded.The onecard wheel, part of the existing brand identity, was married with a 3D simulated award to create a visual connection between onecard and an award winning product. The first execution to go live is an internal communication campaign and comprises an e-bulletin along with an opportunity spotting guide for relationship managers.
9. Client brief – St Peter &St James St Peter and St James is a registered charity that provide specialist care, love and support for those living with progressive, life limiting illnesses. We were asked to evolve the existing logo to promote a brighter more positive outlook for patients, staff and fundraisers. This approach is representative of the love and happiness that staff at St Peter and St James aim to bring to each patient that spends time at the home. We took inspiration firstly from their existing logo, which depicted the hospice nestled within the South Down hills, and also the sunflower, which is traditionally and extensively used as an emblem by hospices across the country. The new logo can now be seen across the county, from the high street shops to the regular fund raising events that the hospice runs.
