The Brand Identity interviews Rachel Long-Smith, co-founder of London-based studio Narrate, about building a values-driven practice, finding the right clients, and launching her podcast 'Making It' to support women and gender non-conforming designers. She discusses the studio’s evolution, its focus on purpose-led cultural work, and highlights their identity for the Arts Council Collection’s exhibition 'Breaking the Mould.'
The Brand Identity’s 'The Edit' highlights five design projects, including Narrate’s identity for the UK’s National Partners Programme. The feature also showcases Studio Brave’s branding for OneFourFive Clarendon, Daniel Carlsten’s conceptual Christ&Fries project, Plácida’s identity for Modesta Cassinello, and Peltan-Brosz’s work for Letta. Each project demonstrates distinct visual approaches across industries from culture to fashion.
