Brand Guidelines Client: Young Lives vs Cancer2025After carrying out a visual overview and brand evaluation, assessing what was working, what needed refinement, and what could be reimagined, we developed new visual guidelines to align the charity’s look and feel with its distinctive tone of voice.

Building on the existing brand, we refined key elements, created a refreshed icon suite, updated photography principles, and set practical direction for applying the brand consistently across campaigns and channels. The result is a bolder, more cohesive system that empowers the charity to communicate with clarity, confidence and impact.

Mourne Park Youth TrailClient: Woodland Trust2025
Honours partnered with the Woodland Trust to create an interactive youth trail at Mourne Park, an experience designed to spark curiosity about ancient woodlands. The brief focused on a one‑day event using What3Words for navigation, but we saw an opportunity to build something with lasting impact.

We developed a reusable trail made up of bold, typographic panels that encouraged visitors to pause, reflect and engage with their surroundings. Through playful design and immersive storytelling, young people learned about the role of trees in tackling climate change and were inspired to share their journey online.

By designing with longevity in mind, we delivered an experience that continues to educate and inspire well beyond its launch—aligning with the Trust’s values and maximising the project’s budget. It’s not just about designing for sustainability, it’s about the sustainability of our designs.

Birds and Boobs Client:  Breast Cancer UK2024–2025
Birds & Boobs is an apparel range created for Breast Cancer UK to build a flock of strong, empowered women and raise awareness of breast cancer prevention.

The designs feature the Great Tit and Great Horned Owl, chosen for their playful nicknames and their symbolism of strength, resilience and beauty. The logo captures both a bird in flight and the female form, expressing pride and freedom.

The strategy was shaped by conversations with staff and patients, leading to Birds & Boobs as a sub-brand for people who may not connect with the charity’s more hard‑hitting messaging but still want to feel part of the movement.

Typography plays a central role, with Bayard (a typeface rooted in activism) amplifying the brand’s bold stance, including versions protesting endocrine‑disrupting chemicals linked to cancer. Alongside graphic prints, handmade drypoint‑etched artwork was introduced, with the Great Tits print becoming a bestseller.

How to be AutisticClient: Firebird2024
Created with neurodiversity consultant Rachel, How to Be Autistic is a guide designed to support people after an autism diagnosis. Every detail, from colour and typography to illustration and layout, was shaped with clarity, comfort and inclusivity in mind.

The design is simple and warm, using a minimal aesthetic and gender‑neutral illustrations to make complex information feel approachable. Accessibility led the process, with careful attention to typography, contrast and structure to support neurodivergent readers.

The guide has reached thousands online and has since been adopted as an official post‑diagnostic resource by NHS‑affiliated assessment centres. The project highlights the role of thoughtful, human‑centred design in creating resources that are not only useful but also welcoming and empowering. empowering.

Priorities & Annual Reports Client: Fair Education Alliance2024The Fair Education Alliance (FEA) is a coalition of over 300 organisations working to close the attainment gap for children and young people from low‑income backgrounds. Bringing together voices from charities, research groups, businesses, policymakers and young people, FEA drives systemic change in education.

We have partnered with them since 2024 to help shape their message across key publications, beginning with their manifesto and extending into major reports. Our work responded to the fast‑changing political landscape, including the general election, ensuring their priorities and recommendations were communicated with clarity and confidence.

By developing a cohesive design language, supported by clear infographics and accessible layouts, we helped strengthen FEA’s voice across both their Priorities report and annual Impact Report. The Priorities report in particular saw a significant rise in engagement and visibility, contributing to a 73% increase in website traffic.

Full Supper ClubClient: Breast Cancer UK2025
Full is a nutritious, not‑for‑profit supper club created with Breast Cancer UK to highlight the connection between good nutrition and women’s health. Unlike Birds & Boobs, which supports the charity from the outside, Full sits at the heart of the BCUK brand. Its focus is simple: good food, good conversation and a good cause. It encourages working women to fill their own cup, nourishing body and mind through shared meals and connection.

The identity reflects this ethos. Jeko, a typeface by British designer Ellen Luff, was chosen for its accessibility and character, supported by BCUK’s Lato. The logo mark gradually fills up to mirror the idea of nourishment.

Full launched in January 2025 at Carousel, London, with chefs Rachel de Thample, Gemma Ogston, Bettina Campolucci Bordi and Camille Vidal serving a curated menu to journalists, nutritionists and industry experts. A launch pack of recipes, hosting tips and conversation starters supports the initiative as it moves into people’s homes, with plans for future restaurant takeovers already underway.
