Bee Midtown: Identity
Overview
Designed @ The Hoxby Collective
Task
BEE BID (Business Improvement District) covers the Holborn, Bloomsbury St Giles, Farringdon & Clerkenwell areas of London. They bring the people and businesses of Midtown together to drive long-term, sustainable, commercial and social growth.
I was the Creative Director for The Hoxby Collective in creating new identities for both the BEE and Midtown brands.
Solution
Taking inspiration from the BEE name and history, a hexagonal grid was used as the foundation for the BEE brand look and feel.
This same grid was used to create a word mark that was deliberately bold, unexpected and recognisable. An open-source approach was taken which allows the word mark to be filled with textures and colours to surprise and delight the viewer.
