Cracking straight into 2010 and we’ve just finished the new look Tourism South East membership benefits literature.
We needed to embrace all aspects of the South East and with this bright and breezy style we’ve achieved exactly that.

Friends of the Republic
As our new studio has the room to accommodate 1000 small elephants we thought it was time we dedicated a small part of this to our clients (and we thought elephants would get in the way of the work).
We are proud to unveil the client wall – everyone gets their own bubble complete with logo so next time you pop in to see us take a minute to stop and admire our creative handywork – oh, and your logo!
Behold the wall…

Branding a Fat Hen
Fat Hen, a specialist merchandise distributor, needed a corporate identity that would shine out from a crowded marketplace. Now, with a name like Fat Hen we couldn’t let this golden egg of an opportunity pass us by, so with the usual zeal and enthusiasm for weird and wacky projects we swung into action.
The end result is this unusual, interesting and different corporate identity that is anything but corporate. We are now working on their corporate literature, tone of voice and general brand style.

Hampshire gets smart, Agent Smart
A new figure has emerged in the Hampshire region he’s Smart… Agent Smart! (sorry, couldn’t resist the Bond pun!)
Errr, anyway, moving swiftly on… we’ve just finished work on this new guide to all things Hampshire at the click of a button you can now see what’s available in our local area. The options are vast, from accomodation and events to the local history and heritage locations.
As Agent Smart is a new concept in Hampshire, if you have a business or have had a good experience at a local attraction let him know so that he can share it with the other Hampshire residents. Similarly, if you can’t find what you need then let him know and he’ll try to add that service as soon as possible.
Now that’s enough about the client lets get back to us, our favourite subject! For the Agent Smart project we undertook the branding, web design and back end development. The site uses the Google maps API with overlayed map technology, a what’s on section and a feed back facility all built bespoke for the client by our talented and ever so geeky technical team.

Introducing The Property Ombudsman
Welcome to the Property Ombudsman (The Ombudsman for Estate Agents is no more). That’s a round about way of saying the we’ve just finished the re-brand of the Ombudsman.
Having won the pitch (and delivered as promised) for the 2008 Annual Report we have gone on to work with the Ombudsman to re-brand and launch the new identity – no mean feat for a nationwide organisation. We’ve created a new brand identity, around which the new look literature and stationery has been created.
Part and parcel of the extensive re-brand was the delivery of two nationwide mailings, the first to notify the members of the imminent change and the second to deliver the new look member window stickers and collateral to each and every member estate agent in the country.
The project was completed in under a month and consisted of
• Logo branding
• New identity guidelines
• Literature restyle and printing
• Member window stickers
• Fulfillment of all the above nationwide

NHS offline activity pointing to online action
So, having completed the design for the NHS Hampshire Library Service website (and whilst the techies we’re beavering away) we turned our attention to the promotional items that were needed to promote the new look site as the NHS team toured Hampshire.
As well as the usual promotional posters and flyers we thought that a library should be able to promote their services on bookmarks, pens and sticky pads… so thats what we did!
We ended up designing, sourcing, producing and delivering:
• A3 Posters
• Bookmarks
• A5 flyers
• Branded pens
• Branded stickty pads
• Pop up stands
• Full branded table cloths
• Stress toys (yep you’ve guessed it branded)
• Mugs (fully branded)
• And, last but not least, business cards
A whole array of promotional items, all of which bear the new look NHS Hampshire Libraby Service logo – as designed by Studio Republic.
… and the technical team thought they were busy building the site! (OK so it was a big and complex CMS site but even so – that’s a lot of design and print)

The NHS are merging three separate internal organisationsin to the new Hampshire Healthcare Library Service. Part of the process is the branding and website for the new improved service. Studio Republic won the pitch and are delighted to be working with the NHS. We have created the brand and have since designed a plethora of print items such as posters, bookmarks, display stands and pens. Next is the website which is due to go live in late March.

Branding the Office of the Chief Inspector of the UK Border Agency
The newly formed Office of the Chief Inspector of the UK Border Agency has commissioned Studio Republic to design their branding and initial stationery requirements.
Being a newly appointed office no brand style currently exists so we will work with the OCI to develop an identity that can be carried across all print and online literature.
