The Brand Identity interviews designer Malcolm Buick of Brooklyn-based studio Athletics about creating a new identity for Arbroath Amateur Boxing Club in Scotland. The project draws on the town’s heritage, using a portcullis symbol from Arbroath Abbey, bold utilitarian typography, and photography by Buick’s father, the club’s president. The identity emphasizes honesty, community, and belonging over polish or commercial gloss.
Athletics collaborated with Intuitive to expand the medical robotics company’s brand identity, centering on the symbolic ‘portal’ above the ‘i’ in its logo. The project evolved the visual system through motion behaviors, code-generated animations, and a flexible governance tool called Sesame. The refreshed identity balances technical precision with emotional storytelling, enabling global teams to create consistent, on-brand assets.
