Another year of delivering Way More – A look back at our 2025 highlights

As 2025 wraps up, we’re taking a moment to look back on another varied year across the studio, one that’s taken us from identity development projects and global exhibitions, to publishing cycles, digital builds, ecommerce experiences and sophisticated animation.

It’s also been a year of supporting acquisitions, creating content for major events, developing new platforms and celebrating industry recognition. Below is a snapshot of the work that has shaped our year.

1. Developing an identity for AMBS’s 60th year

AMBS celebrated its 60th anniversary this year, marking six decades of shaping leaders, thinkers and innovators around the world. We supported the milestone with a dedicated identity and a suite of campaign assets that look ahead to the future of business education.

2. From local favourite to national brand

With ambitious plans for nationwide expansion, Polish Village Bakery required a brand that built on its reputation for quality and heritage. We delivered a refresh that retained its character while creating a stronger, more confident presence to support UK-wide distribution.

3. Designing trusted resources for the global maritime community

It’s been a busy year with a steady rhythm of publishing for Britannia P&I Club. We design and print two of the Club’s flagship publications: Risk Watch, a trusted source of case studies and technical insight for shore-based maritime professionals, and Crew Watch, a practical magazine created specifically for seafarers to support safe working practices and life at sea. We produce three issues of each every year, reaching around 3,000 readers per title.

4. Around the world in 365 days

Our exhibition work has once again taken us across the globe, supporting PTC Therapeutics, Sage, Jacobs, H&T Presspart, Pascall+Watson, Conduent and ChargePoint.

Their programmes took us across Europe – through Germany (Frankfurt, Berlin, Nuremberg), Spain (Madrid), moving through France (Paris, Biarritz), Italy (Milan) and across to the Netherlands (Amsterdam), Austria (Vienna), and a wide spread of locations across the UK.

Beyond Europe, we also delivered shows in Asia and North America, with work in Japan (Kyoto), India (Hyderabad), Singapore, Canada (Toronto) and the United States (New York, Boston and Illinois).

It’s been a full circuit of cities and sectors, each one bringing its own set of considerations. A broad mix of locations, audiences and briefs that have shaped another memorable year for our exhibitions team.

5. An integrated brand launch that received industry recognition

One of the year’s standout moments was seeing our work with Robert Andrew Bakery recognised at the Prolific North Marketing Awards.

The brand launched across packaging, ecommerce, social activity, influencer outreach and PR, making a strong first impression as their unique low-carb sourdough reached customers and continued to build traction. It was a project the team took on with focus and ambition, and being recognised by industry experts added extra drive as we carry the work forward.

6. A closer lens on form and function

Created for a major product launch for our client H&T Presspart, we crafted a 3D animation that slows the device down to its essentials. By isolating surfaces, mechanisms and the finest of detail, the animation gives the product a poised, premium presence that communicates its purpose with precision.

7. A fresh identity for a growing organisation

Earlier in the year, H&T Presspart’s acquisition of Wisconsin-based Plas-Tech Engineering marked an important step in the company’s growth, and as a long-standing client they asked us to support the transition with an updated identity for the acquired business. The identity brings Plas-Tech into the group with a clear visual direction that reflects both its own capabilities and H&T Presspart’s ambitions.

8. Game on for Heathrow’s message to politicians and decision makers

Developed for Heathrow’s presence at both the Labour and Conservative party conferences, we designed an interactive game that turned regional insight into an engaging experience. Players explored the locations of suppliers contributing to the proposed third runway, revealing how the project draws on expertise from across the UK. By framing the runway as a nationwide opportunity rather than a London-centric scheme, the game offered a clear, accessible way to communicate the breadth of economic impact behind the project.
