The graphic design industry has changed significantly from the 1950s to how we know it now. In fact, it's almost impossible to imagine designing now the way the did 40-70 years ago.
Take a look at this trailer documentary on what graphic design used to look like.

Team members can be like siblings, for better or for worse! For this Sibling's day we're celebrating our chosen brothers and sisters, tell us below how long you reckon @ktiramisu and @phryd would last in this "get along" shirt.
I reckon put Jeffrey Tang and Louise Giles in it instead 😬🤣
We talk a lot about how branding is so much more that just a logo. It's a whole landscape of elements from brand essence to elevator pitch, imagery to keywords ...all wrapped up with consistent storytelling and an immaculate user experience.
The branding convo often starts with "I need a logo", but quickly gets down to the juicy bits. We ask questions like, 'What are you here for? Who are you here for? What do you stand for? If you stand for nothing, what will you fall for?' Get in touch to start the conversation, or comment below if you got the #hamiltonreference ;D
