A good fit

Another Collective suits organisations that need a complete brand identity system designed and then applied across packaging, print, signage and digital, rather than a single logo. Its published client roster spans drinks and food (Carlsberg, Cutty Sark, Super Bock Group, Sogrape, Kopke, Barros, Emiglia), hospitality and retail (Brusco, Sushiaria, Host Douro), culture and public bodies (Porto Design Biennale, Museu da Cidade, Câmara Municipal do Porto) and construction and architecture practices including Mota-Engil. The studio publishes a core team of six designers with a further thirteen named collaborators, which fits small and mid-sized identity, packaging and campaign briefs.

Services

The published service list covers creative direction, strategy, branding, visual identity, graphic design, packaging, naming, copywriting, editorial and print, motion design, art direction, storytelling, web design and environmental design. Project credits on the case studies name creative direction, design, photography, video, motion graphics and illustration as separate disciplines held in-house or by named collaborators, so campaign photography and motion work are delivered alongside the identity itself. The studio publishes its work in English, Portuguese and Spanish and lists no separate technology or platform stack.

Representative work

The Emiglia case study describes a rebrand for a fresh pasta company that runs both a factory and a pasta bar, unifying the identity across the two locations with new typography and a refreshed logotype applied to packaging, signage, menus and communications; the credited scope is creative direction, visual identity and packaging. The Cutty Sark case study covers packaging design for a special Christmas edition of Cutty Sark Blended. Further published projects name Lemon Jelly, the Super Bock VIP Bar at Primavera Sound 2017 and 2018, Brusco Burger, Quinta da Boavista, Farta Magazine, Museu da Cidade and Terminal 4450.

Notes

The studio publishes its address at Rua França Júnior, Mercado Municipal, Espaço 6, 4450-137 Matosinhos, in the Porto metropolitan area. The website is published in English, Portuguese and Spanish, with English as the default. The sitemap contains no dedicated contact route, so the Studio page, which carries the company address, a generic company contact channel and the company social profiles, is used as the buyer contact destination. Robots.txt allows general crawling and only disallows two named Meta crawlers. No consent dialog appeared during the archived homepage capture.
