Regular readers will know that our design director Kerry Neesam keeps her finger on the pulse of what’s hot in brand design, sharing what she finds from around the world via LinkedIn. Here are three of her most recent top picks:

Hopkins Restaurant

“A lovely identity for this restaurant by creative studio Saint Urbain. As soon as I looked through this project, I loved the contrast between the crisp and clear logo and type and the abstract and conceptual illustrations. I then read that this was intentional and was to ‘demonstrate how the chefs draw their own inspiration from the fresh and seasonal ingredients they source from the land to place on your plate’.”

This has been done predominantly through typography. I love how much movement each design has!”
