London-based Studio Lisca created the launch identity for River House, a design-led residential building company in Suffolk. The system combines a geometric brick-derived pattern with the movement of local rivers, deploying it across print, digital applications and signage. A pale blue and brick-red palette, alongside ABC Arizona Flare and Hanken Grotesk, gives the brand a contemporary alternative to conventional heritage-led construction branding.
Melbourne-based Studio of Design and Art (SODAA) created a new brand identity for Front Office, the fashion label founded by doctor-turned-designer Ken Sakata. The identity explores dualities such as tradition and technology, drawing on Japanese aesthetics and the concept of 'ma' to express balance and space. Using typefaces ABC Arizona Flare and Reform Grotesk, the system reflects archival research, understated craftsmanship, and a refined visual tone aligned with Sakata’s philosophy.

The project balances tradition and modernity through collaboration with the cathedral’s stonemasons and the use of Arizona Flare and Raleway typefaces.
