Showing 17 of 17

Onyx Line

Metal

Challenge. A discreet, weighty card for a private banking tier. Direction. Matte-black metal with fine etched pinstripe lines and a tone-on-tone mark.

Contour

Metal

Challenge. An outdoors-brand card with a sense of place. Direction. Bronze metal with a fine topographic contour engraving.

Frost

Virtual · Plastic

Challenge. A light, modern card that reads on any screen. Direction. A frosted brushed-silver finish adapted across virtual and plastic.

Halo

Metal

Challenge. A warm, premium rewards card. Direction. Deep burgundy metal with a single embossed ring motif.

Vector Blue

Plastic

Challenge. A confident everyday card for a challenger bank. Direction. Glossy cobalt plastic with printed geometric linework.

Skyline

Metal

Challenge. A city-launch edition metal card. Direction. Graphite metal engraved with an abstract skyline.

Linen

Plastic

Challenge. A card for a savings brand that wanted warmth without looking soft. Direction. Matte off-white plastic with a woven texture that only appears under raking light, and a single olive mark placed where a thumb does not sit.

Signal

Plastic

Challenge. One colour, no imagery, and it still had to be recognisable at arm's length. Direction. Saturated cobalt in a soft matte finish, cut by a single hairline that carries the whole design.

Edge

Plastic

Challenge. A challenger brand wanted its colour visible while the card sits in a wallet. Direction. A bone-white face with a coral printed edge, so the brand reads from the side of the stack rather than the front.

Tide

Virtual

Challenge. A virtual-first card that had to hold up on a phone screen at night. Direction. Deep teal with a slow horizontal gradient, tested against a dark interface rather than a white artboard.

Nocturne

Virtual

Challenge. Two tiers that had to be told apart in a wallet stack, not side by side. Direction. A near-black dot texture against a warm grey, distinguishable from the sliver of card the stack actually shows.

Quarry

Metal

Challenge. Full-colour artwork on metal, which is usually where a design falls apart. Direction. A stone gradient printed over brushed steel so the grain reads through the lighter passages, held inside an engraved border.

Ember

Metal

Challenge. A gold card that needed to avoid looking like every other gold card. Direction. Warm gold PVD with the pattern pushed into the lower third only, leaving the upper half empty so the finish does the work.

Strata

Virtual · Plastic · Metal

Challenge. One identity across three materials that each reflect light differently. Direction. A single horizontal band, redrawn for each substrate: printed on plastic, engraved on metal, and rendered flat on screen.

Vellum

Plastic

Challenge. A quiet card that still needed one moment of expense. Direction. Matte cream with a vertical copper foil band, positioned so it catches light as the card is drawn from a wallet.

Band

Ring

Challenge. A payment ring worn daily, so it had to survive being ordinary jewellery. Direction. A plain brushed titanium band with one recessed groove, and the contactless mark engraved inside where only the wearer sees it.

Tessera

Keyfob

Challenge. A keyfob for a transit programme that would live in a pocket with keys. Direction. Soft-touch black on a rounded body, with the contactless mark debossed rather than printed so wear does not remove it.
