Nalaβs Bold New Campaign
When we design brands we often envisage how they may position themselves as a disruptor, and create meaningful change within an industry / category. The best of those brands continue to disrupt and create change long after we've done our work - Nala is a great example of that. With their latest campaign "Sorry to offend you" they are tackling public breastfeeding and celebrating motherhood - and once again disrupting a category. We can't wait to see more!

We are thrilled to have won 2 Golds, a Silver and 3 Bronze awards at the 2024 Best Design Awards!Β We are so lucky to have worked on such great projects, so a huge thank you to our clients and our awesome collaborators!

Pushing the boundaries of sustainability
Congrats Zero Co! πππ
A brand-shift and packaging project we were honoured to work on (we'll share more later.) For now though, we're so happy to see Zero Co launching this brave and meaningful new direction for their product range.
Queen of the sunshine!
We are thrilled to welcome Mary Morrish as the newest member of the UF team! Mary has joined us from UTS, where she graduated with a degree in Visual Communication Design. She's got a passion for typography, illustration, and making things move. Mary views the sun as her personal mascot of positivity, and as the self-proclaimed queen of the sunshine, she's here to sprinkle a little extra brilliance into our studio. When she's not basking in the sun's glorious rays, you can find her listening to obscure Welsh bands, drinking large quantities of tea or just following the sunlight wherever it leads.

New work for SBS
We recently had the privilege of creating the artwork for the new SBS podcast, Grand Gestures. A heartwarming listen that shares the memorable stories, traditions and folklores that are passed down through inter-generational connections. If you want to tug on those heartstrings in the best way possible, go check it out.
Meeting booth of our dreams
Our meeting booth was in desperate need of some jazzing up. So we tasked in-house designer and illustrator Joy Li to give it some UF personality and she did not disappoint, delivering this incredible karaoke inspired art installation. Check out the full artwork on our socials.
Piece of Mind
Sometimes all we need to find some peace of mind is a reason to relish staying in. Introducing our 3 limited-edition 1000 piece puzzles. Designed by none other than our talented in house illustrators Joy Li, Lucy McGinley and Jack Forrest to bring you some well deserved piece of mind.Β
Uffsite 2024
You can't spell fun without UF and our annual Uffsite is a true testament to this. Mix together a whacky dress up theme, poolside mojitos and karaoke and you have yourself a bonding weekend that dreams (and nightmares) are made of.
