    uniE621 Yellowstone - Dutton Ranch Dog Treats
    https://www.twine.net/signin THE CHALLENGE Landing the rights to Yellowstone’s first-ever dog treat line? Big win. Even bigger expectations. This wasn’t just another pet treat. This was a licensed launch into the world of one of America’s most iconic TV dramas – with millions of fans, zero margin for error, and a countdown to the new season already ticking. The brief? Make it feel like Yellowstone. Make it premium. Make pet parents stop mid-scroll. And do it before John Dutton rides back on screen. We had to move fast, think big, and avoid the one thing most licensed brands fall into: forgettable gimmickry.

    uniE621 Tommy Popcorn
    THE CHALLENGE Tommy Popcorn isn’t your average snack brand. It’s a full-blown character – rooted in the legend of a 1950s Brooklyn filmmaker who funded his passion projects by slinging flavour-packed popcorn through diners, delis and movie houses. Think: old-school charm, silver-screen nostalgia, and flavours passed down from Nonna with a twist of cinematic flair. The founders came to us with an incredible story. But they needed help turning that into a brand identity and packaging system that would: Capture the theatrical, retro Americana vibe Cut through in a crowded category Flex across formats, flavours and platforms And it needed to do all that while still feeling accessible and snackable – not just like a storytelling gimmick.

    uniE621 Alexir Partnership
    THE CHALLENGE The packaging and co-packing sector isn’t short on capability. It is short on differentiation. For years, brands in the space have looked, and sounded, remarkably alike. Conservative visuals, functional messaging and safe positioning. Alexir Partnership had moved beyond that. Originally recognised for cartons and co-packing, the business had grown into a fully employee-owned partnership offering something far more integrated – creative development, sourcing, manufacturing, co-packing and delivery – all under one roof. The proposition had expanded. The culture had strengthened. The ambition had sharpened. But the brand still told the old story. The brief wasn’t about reinvention. It was about realignment. https://www.twine.net/signin Alexir needed an identity that: Made their full end-to-end capability immediately obvious Reflected the scale and commercial maturity of the business Brought cohesion across multiple services and sectors Broke free from the visual monotony of the market Standing out wasn’t vanity. It was strategic necessity.

    uniE621 oForest
    https://www.twine.net/signin THE CHALLENGE Some products are born in boardrooms. This one was born in the forests of Chhattisgarh, India. ōForest started with a moment of discovery: the Mahua flower – caramel-sweet, culturally rich, and packed with benefits – hidden in plain sight for centuries. Revered by locals. Unknown to the world. The founders saw more than a product. They saw a mission: Share Mahua’s magic. Support indigenous communities. Protect sacred land. But here’s the real challenge: How do you turn an unfamiliar flower into a premium, purpose-driven food brand for a Global market? You need more than packaging. You need a story with real power.
    uniE621 The Hertsmere
    https://www.twine.net/signin THE CHALLENGE When Radlett Park Golf Course began its transformation, it wasn’t just a renovation – it was a reinvention. New name. New facilities. New food and drink offering. And, most importantly – a fresh vision for what a golf destination could be. One not just for seasoned players, but for families, first-timers, and nature lovers. Less about tradition – more about energy, accessibility, and open space. But to bring that vision to life, they needed more than a smart logo. They needed a brand that felt like a breath of fresh air.

    uniE621 Emmy's Best Pet Products
    https://www.twine.net/signin THE CHALLENGE Emmy’s Best isn’t some faceless, mass-market pet brand. They’re family-run, proudly USA-made, and full of heart – with premium ingredients and no gimmicks. But you wouldn’t have known that from the original packaging. The old brand felt generic. Disconnected. And for a company created in honour of one very special Labrador? It wasn’t cutting it. Their ask: Give us a brand that leads the pack.
