Both airline and other institutional customers were increasingly demanding high-quality food catering at lower prices and great service. RBC was being seen more as ‘vendor’ and less so for the actual high-quality culinary work that it produced it in its kitchens. The word ‘Catering’ was also devaluing its overall brand strength and reputation pitting it against the large number of mass caterers. RBC also wished to diversify beyond airline catering in a strategic way but first had to build its credentials as a professional and skilful culinary player.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="grid" text_align="left" box_shadow_on_row="no"][vc_column][vc_empty_space image_repeat="no-repeat"][vc_single_image image="353382" img_size="full"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="grid" text_align="left" box_shadow_on_row="no"][vc_column][vc_empty_space image_repeat="no-repeat"][vc_column_text] The Insight Stakeholders respected RBC as a national entity, worthy of potentially representing Brunei on a global culinary stage. We leveraged this strength by crafting the new brand promise ‘Taste of modern Brunei’ with the thought of RBC delivering the most trusted and delightful culinary experiences to Brunei and to Asia. To better represent the new brand positioning and strategy, DIA has also guided RBC in transitioning from a ‘Catering’ to a Culinary service provider through a name change by adopting the name ‘Royal Brunei Culinary’. Having ‘Culinary’ in the new name essentially captures what RBC now truly stands for as an organisation and brand, as it conveys a higher sense of professionalism and sophistication that it always aspires to bring through its food and service delivery.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type="row"...

With each chorus singing its own tune, the group lacked unity and consistency, impacting its presence and perceptions as the national choral group.

The independent working community of freelancers and mobile expertise that is looking for innovation and inspiration in a fast changing world. Coming together with ASB’s core community of multinational and regional companies wanting to harness the best talent through a flexible workspace that could help them drive innovation. DIA proposed the name ‘thebridge’ as expressing the link between two communities, as well as a subtle reference to Singbridge in the parent’s name. DIA’s design solution was a simple brand mark that expresses the connections that ‘thebridge’ represents. This was expanded through a matrix design that is incorporated into all the touchpoints of the brand from core brand logo to marketing communications, interior design, wayfinding and launch videos. DIA worked closely with ID designers to help integrate the brand concept into the interior experience, building...
