We have had the pleasure of rebranding Oildata, an oil services company, and Xenergi, an energy company over the last couple of months. This has to be one of favourite projects of the year and you will surely be seeing a lot more from both companies. Oildata is smart, straight talking and sophisticated. Xenergi, clean, eccentric and very forward thinking.
I’m a sucker for anything that steps away from “the trend”. The last two sunday papers for Thisday and 234 Next have featured an A1 poster by Etisalat showing a typographical illustrated map of Nigeria and the states currently covered by the network.
Whilst a little bit of attention could have been paid to kerning and line-height, I commend the creativity. Well done guys, I think the agency behind this is 141 Worldwide. Very clever!
With the build up to Nigeria at 50 and the whole rebrand project coming along, the book “In Dependence” by Sarah Ladipo Manyika really did have me wondering what was beneath the covers. Not just because of the name and the story but the clever book cover design.
