Uniform building the futureDesign consultants Uniform have recently completed the first stage in a interesting campaign for the Foreign Office Architects first building project in the UK.

1�

Trinity EC3 will be one of the most stunning and important new construction in London. The building design is based on the aesthetic qualities of the crystal structure and Uniform have carried this throughout the campaign.

The studio have created a crisp and functional brand for the campaign which compliments the projects greatly as well as a book.

The book features striking imagery and interviews with key members of FOA. The production quality of the book is high with a number different paper stocks and finishing treatments being applied throughout.

A short high definition film was also produced for an exhibition at the MIPIM in Canne. You can view the film on the Uniform website.

The quality of the work produced by Uniform reflects the high standard of output from the Liverpool based studio.

Uniform was founded back in 1998, through a love of design by three friends who met at University in Liverpool. Nick Howe, Nick Bentley and Pete Thomas are passionate about what they do; and it is this passion which has helped them to nurture their rapid growth successfully.

Uniform has grown quickly from its diverse beginnings; designing interiors, such as the legendary Liverpool nightclub Garlands; exhibitions, computer generated imagery, brand and literature for long standing clients such as Beetham Organization.

Now with a team of 17 creatives, the studio is working across graphic design, film, brand and moving image projects for clients in the fashion, architecture, creative and leisure sectors. Uniform love what they do, and it shows.
