Recently nominated for Young Architects of the Year and one of the most talented emerging practices working in London, Duggan Morris Architects approach us to re-design their website. The brief was simple, create a fully content managed site, keep the design simple, uncluttered, and show the work to it’s full potential. Our solution required the integration of some fairly complex coding under the bonnet to achieve the minimal layout, scalable content and slick transitions within the navigation, but we persevered, and here it is!
This month Urbis closes is doors for the final time after a highly successful 7 years, we made our way across the penines to see the final event: Urbis has left the building, showcasing the highlights that cemented it’s place as one of the leading exhibition spaces in the north. Due to re-open in spring/summer 2011 as the National Football Museum, which currently residing in the neighbouring town of Preston. Urbis hosted some great exhibitions over the years including the Hacienda Fac 491, Emory Douglas and the art of revolution & D&AD. We were proud to be a part of the history by designing the final exhibition, Home Grown: The Story of UK Hip-hop. Here’s the highlights, we’ll be showing the full project on our site along with new updates very soon.
Over the last 6 months we have been undertaking a research, strategy and brand planning programme with The British Institute of Interior Design (BIID, formerly BIDA). Having been granted Institute status last year BIID felt they needed a change of Identity to reflect the values and aims of the organisation. The primary objective was to be viewed by industry professionals and the education sector as the authority in Interior and spacial design. Our solution was for BIID to ‘own the cube’, a symbolic shape that forms a representation of interior space, a symbol that BIID could define as their own, and which could be applied in 3-dimensions. The full identity programme will be rolled out over the next two months including website, award design, yearbook and internal communications.
