Superfried refreshed a PR firms' branding for a leading internal London council. They designed collaterals, beginning with an initial brief, then project scoping, ending with the delivery of final designs.
Internal stakeholders who saw the work said that it was the most challenging they had seen. Superfried's designs were stylish and encapsulated the brand perfectly. The entire project process was simple, laid out a specific timetable, and hit all deadline markers set.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the ECD of a public relations and communications firm, working in the public sector.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Superfried?
We came to Superfried for an internal branding project for a major London council, who felt their current branding was outdated and not reflective of either the staff or the ambition of the organisation.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
I had worked with Superfried in a previous role where he had redesigned 'RR', the Rolls-Royce magazine for us.
Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.
We gave Superfried the initial brief and gave him free-reign to interpret it himself. As I was familiar with his work, I had a fair idea of the calibre of his contribution and did not want to restrain his creativity. He came back with a number of options, which quite frankly, move the design thinking to another level.
There were some particular deliverables we need him to resolve for the client presentation and once again he exceeded our expectations. The final designs were superb, and Superfried continued to work after we said we were happy as he could see further opportunities to stretch the design.
How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We worked with Superfried himself from beginning to end.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Everyone who saw the work on the client-side said it was the most challenging they had seen (in a good way, they wanted to be challenged). The designs themselves were very stylish and encapsulated the brand perfectly.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The entire process was very simple. We laid out the timetable and the meetings were conducted on the phone or over Zoom. The schedule was tight but all markers were hit on time.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
As always with Superfried, the quality of the design, particularly the typography is amazing. I have been in the advertising business for 30 years, working on big brands in big agencies. As a design typographer, Superfried is easily in the top three that I have ever worked with. The work is always super-stylish, accurate, and well thought through.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Not really.
