January is traditionally a time for reflection, and we're feeling extra-reflective here at Supercool as today we're eight years old.
The past year alone has been especially exciting, with an expanded team, new clients and loads of projects we're really proud of; 2011 was undoubtedly our best year to date. Here's hoping for an even better 2012.
In the meantime, we've done some designy reflecting over on the blog …
We've just created an identity and built a mobile web app for a C&T and Oxfam collaboration. Featuring a series of games, quizzes, videos and podcasts, the app was devised, written and produced by young people from C&T partner schools.
It aims to raise awareness of the Millennium Development Goals – a series of UN targets, established in 2000, which focus on improving life for millions of people around the world. Find out more at www.mdg-app.org (best viewed on a mobile).
Home. A bold, participatory production being run as part of next year's International Dance Festival Birmingham, Supercool were asked to create an identity for Home, which we … didn't quite do.
From now until early 2012, people from all over the West Midlands are being asked what 'home' means to them. These contributions will then be fed into not only the production itself but also its visual identity; this is a participatory production after all. (Though we have taken the first step and created some initial home-related doodles.)
Virgin Balloon Flights is the largest and most well-known hot air ballooning company in the UK – but they just didn't have the website to match their know-how.
We've designed a new site with a simpler structure and clearer navigation, which fits more closely with the Virgin parent brand. Currently being built by Virgin's in-house developer, the new site aptly communicates the company's experience and expertise in the sector; giving the brand a gentle little lift.
