The Designhouse team got together to celebrate the festive season in style at The Ivy Collection in Canary Wharf.
We enjoyed a lovely meal, exchanged Secret Santa gifts and tested our knowledge in the highly anticipated annual Christmas Quiz!

Trip to Euston Food Bank
Today, we popped across to the Euston Foodbank to drop off some much-needed supplies for those who might go without this holiday season.
Our Designhouse team have been loading food items into our collection box this week as a small favour to help local people in crisis, hoping to provide some form of comfort this Christmas.
We also collected clothing items that seemed better passed to those battling the harsh conditions of winter.
A huge thank you to all the volunteers we interacted with today. You are nothing short of exceptional in your tireless work to better the circumstances of those who are struggling.

TypeTogether and award winning typography
At Designhouse, we recognise the key role typography plays in graphic design. And we keep upto date by collaborating with leading type designers and foundries. It’s important to keep abreast of latest developments and inspire our team to think creatively about type.
Which is why we are excited to welcome Stuart Brown from TypeTogether, the independent digital type foundry established in 2006 by Veronika Burian and José Scaglione, to our studio. Stuart generously shared his time and expertise to showcase some incredible work. It was a brilliant opportunity to deepen our understanding of typography and appreciate the beautiful typefaces TypeTogether craft.
A bespoke or customised existing typeface can significantly elevate a brand. It ensures that font aligns with the brand’s personality, making the brand more memorable and distinctive.
We know this is true because our identity and packaging brand work for American chocolate brand Wheatley Ranch won the award for Best Use of Typography at the North America 2020 Transform Awards
