Here we’ll cover a very brief snapshot of Ryan and the practice. Very brief.
We’re an independent Melbourne design studio with a focus on brand and motion. Led by Ryan Walker, we partner with founders, agencies and brand teams globally to create expressive brand strategies, visual identities, motion systems and motion production work.
Our work is culturally-informed and seen across the fields of music, arts, retail, technology, hospitality, automotive, real estate and more. We don't have a house style, but house values we bring to the work. Expression. Optimism. Impact. Personality meets practicality.Authenticity? Paramount. Day-one energy, every day.
Say hello! We're all about new projects and new friends. Fast responses. Clear quotes. Good times, we promise 👋
Oh Maltesers. You know the ones. You know the brand. Light, cheeky, subversive, suggestive. Well in 2020 a new social strategy was coming into play, and so was the focus on Generation Z. Tasked with defining the design and art direction for social, it had to capture this brand personality, be more interactive and set the principles across design, motion and audio. Sweet gig.

Outcome
A social brand world, full of Maltesers personality. Interactive swipe-ups, a Stories tap arcade, this direction ensured the brand lived on and worked for social. Initially people were seeing red, and nothing but, so we brought more variety with an expanded colour palette. Music too was yet to be defined, so an audio direction best described as a fusion of cheeky pop and more subtle electro swing came into play. Mars were big fans, with the new direction launched in the UK in 2020, and now being adopted in markets across Europe.
