About
We are a team of designers, developers, writers, producers and strategists based in Sydney and Melbourne, entrusted with some of Australia’s most iconic brands.
 

What we do

We work with people and businesses to help them in the evolution, reinvention or creation of their brand. We apply strategic thought to deliver effective design solutions across sectors at every scale.

How we do it

An enduring brand has the ability to stand the test of time whilst remaining flexible to changing consumer behaviours and market dynamics. When designed well, it forms a system of reusable elements, guided by clear rules and frameworks, coherently organised to enable the organisation to move faster and achieve a shared vision or purpose.

Giving minorities a voice in the creative industry.

RARE is a three-day leadership masterclass promoting diversity in the creative and tech industry. Supported by D&AD, the three-day event in London, Sydney and Tokyo, equips creatives from minority backgrounds with the skills and confidence to thrive in the creative industries. Google, the primary sponsor of the event, asked Maud to design the identity, website and communications for the event.

Diversity is the lifeblood of creativity. In its essence, it is also something difficult to assign a standardised brand. Our design concept used a contrasting two-layered approach to reflect the juxtaposition inherent in diversity. A utilitarian foundation is topped with a layer of expressive graphic language.

The disruptive, punk aesthetic of the symbols creates a message where written language could be disingenuous, giving a look and feel to diversity – ultimately, something that should remain as unbranded and unrestrained as possible.

“Our brief to MAUD was a tough one – develop a visual identity that represents people of all genders, races, sexualities, social backgrounds, ages and perspectives, equally. What they came up with was genius. Empathic and progressive. It’s an identity we’re incredibly proud to have.”
