Daleahs A new restaurant recently opened in Braamfontein, Johannesburg and we had the pleasure of being there from it's inception.
This has been a labour of love for us and we are so proud of the finished product.
Daleahs is a relaxed eatery serving quality, gourmet food.
The goal was to keep the design sleek and contemporary, and bring in some character by pairing it with the illustrations.
We put together the corporate identity and complete look and feel.
This included the logo, collateral, menu design, take away packaging, coasters, and all the illustrations adorning it's walls.

Prohelvetia We've teamed up with Prins Design to do work for Prohelvetia, the Swiss Arts Council.
This work includes the 2013 programme, and posters and flyers for all the dance and performance acts that they will be bringing to South Africa throughout the year.
We do all the illustrations and Prins Design does the layouts.
We'll be adding new work as we do it for this client, but here is what we've done so far. 2013 Graphic Design, Illustration

Festive Mailer This is a little treat we mailed to all our clients before the year slows down and everyone goes on leave.
Hopefully it got everyone in a festive mood. 2012 Character Design, Creative Direction, Illustration
Says Who Mailer 2012 We made some new direct mailers to send to potential clients.
We figured if we were a creative at an ad agency, we'd love a cool little package containing some signed art prints, a coaster and a calendar for the remainder of 2012 and the whole of 2013.
Hopefully the real agency creatives are on the same page. 2012 Art Direction, Character Design, Illustration
Seattle Coffee Company Seattle Coffee Company contacted us about designing a coffee sleeve for them to be used throughout the summer season.
The theme was 'summer', and we could do whatever we wanted as long as we stuck to that.
They printed 75 000 units and they are available at any Seattle Coffee around South Africa. 2012 Illustration, Packaging, Print Design
Nestlé The guys at Copper Coast asked us to create an illustration for the new Nestlé corporate brochure.
All the individual elements represent the different aspects of Nestlé as a company, from their distribution to their consumers.
The separate elements were then to be used for each chapter in the brochure, but unfortunately although the South African client loved it, the Swiss one didn't.
It still looks good though! 2012 Graphic Design, Illustration
The SA Ballet Theatre We participated in this awesome project aimed at raising awareness and funds for The South African Ballet Theatre.
Joe Public produced a life size ballerina/music box, and we spent the next two weeks in their basement painting countless amounts of roses, ribbons and ballet shoes.
The box was then moved into Hyde Park shopping centre, where if money was put into the slot in the corner, music would play and a real life ballerina would dance.
The box raised R10 000 in just 4 hours, and was in just about every South African newspaper.
It was a really fun project to be a part of, and we're so proud of it. 2012 Illustration, Painting, Typography

Chicken Licken We were asked to create these billboards that depict a monkey's arm pointing to a Chicken Licken outlet. They follow the theme of Chicken Licken's latest TVC which shows a monkey (as a metaphor for addiction) on a guy's back. The monkey keeps growing and becoming more annoying until the guy finally eats some Chicken Licken.

We were also asked to create four posters (in afrikaans and english) for the openings of two new outlets. The theme was "you'll hate yourself for waiting this long". 2011 Design, Print Design, Illustration

Fine Mongolian Ass We were asked by some lovely ladies to take part in an Event called Fine Mongolian Ass.

They're even donating the ambulance once they're done with it! 2011 Illustration, Drawing
