The Foods of Athenry
Refreshing a family-owned baked goods brand. We refined the purpose and the visual identity to make all product ranges consistent and memorable.
We designed the brand of a creative agency specialising in charity and ethical business marketing. Together, the name and visual identity express the idea of clear, impactful communications underpinning positive change.
“Such an inclusive and rewarding process. Brand Purist helped me make sense of my aspirations, then transformed them into a coherent, striking brand. I love it!”
We analysed competitors and empathised with audiences. There are many creative agencies, but most don’t focus on charities and ethical businesses. Competitors’ brand designs are often subdued and safe, so we decided to aim for more impact.

It’s a purpose that will resonate with the type of clients they want to attract. We also defined the brand personality, core values and desired positioning as part of the brand strategy.

We worked with the founder to produce and shortlist options. ‘Spell Change’ captures the essence of the brand. It’s short, memorable and gives the company a sense of credibility, right from the start.

Spell Change’s core offering is creative copywriting and content development, so written language features in the brand design. We created a typographic visual identity that communicates the idea of elevating words and messages to maximise impact.

So we carried them into other elements of the visual identity like icons, text highlights, divider lines and hyperlinks. The vibrant red colour immediately grabs attention. And the classic red, black and white combination is unique within the competitive landscape.
