Curious Minds is an internal umbrella brand campaign identity, designed to communicate key events at the London Campus offices of Macmillan Science and Education publishers.
The name builds on the brand promise of ‘Helping curious minds achieve great things’. Marque Antony, in partnership with BrandGuild, was tasked to create an identity structure that could categorise different types of events and other bespoke initiatives in an inspiring and ‘curious’ manner. We created an original look and feel centred around a hybrid question mark and monogram. This highly adaptable device can frame and watermark a wide range of simple and striking imagery – everything from photography to more bespoke illustration – to communicate a chosen theme or subject across print and digital media.
Springer Nature, the scientific and academic publishing company, was born out of the merger of Springer Science & Business Media together with the Nature Publishing Group, Palgrave Macmillan, and Macmillan Education.
To support integration and enable employees to work more easily together, a new platform built using Jive technology was developed for all employees globally, enabling two way communication and social business collaboration.
Marque Antony was asked to theme this new communication platform in line with the overall Springer Nature brand.
The name Hive was chosen, and developed into an identity system capable of being applied both online and offline.
The Society of Authors is an industry body that has been serving the interests of professional writers for over a century. It has more than 9,000 members and associates writing in all areas of the profession.
The Society of Authors wanted to make their brand identity more approachable and relevant, in line with major technological changes taking place in the world of publishing.
Marque Antony, in partnership with BrandGuild was tasked with defining an organisational personality for the SOA and bringing this to life in a new brand identity that balanced a sense of gravitas and experience with a sense of dynamism and energy. The identity is currently being implemented across their website stationery, newsletter templates, membership packs, awards & events collateral, and their quarterly flagship magazine, The Author.
Edinburgh Castle is a world-class visitor attraction. It had no distinct way of positioning itself on a par with tourist locations such as the Tower of London or the Eiffel Tower. Marketing the castle outside of Scotland was key for the brand, but it also had to ring true with its homeland audience. The authenticity of the experience was common to everyone who visited the castle, regardless of whether they were tourists, or business people. Crucially, Edinburgh Castle has played a significant role in Scottish history.
The core thought created ‘Defender of the Nation’ – rightly recognised this status and helped inspire the direction of the identity, an iconic fusion of the castle’s physical structure and royal heritage.
