[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space image_repeat="no-repeat"][vc_column_text] The Insight The Pomeroy Studio brand identity is anchored on the concept of urban spaces, as expressed in the Pomeroy Studio logotype, and reflects the six criteria for a successful urban development – economic, cultural, social, environmental, spatial and technological.

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space image_repeat="no-repeat"][vc_column_text] The Insight DIA was appointed to develop the brand for the science hub in cooperation with the Science Hub Development Group (SHDG). We developed a global research programme to deeply understanding scientists, researchers and technopreneurs and their needs. This revealed the importance of the collaborative over physical envcironment. This was leversaged to present the science hub in a compelling manner that would attract and invite the like-minded to journey together and claim the vision 'where ideas grow'. DIA developed the name 'one-north' to position the science hub in a global context, at 1º latitude north. The visual identity expresses the three spaces of one-north, the physical, connected and imaginative space, which is limited only by imagination. This was applied to a multi-dimensional launch exhibition featuring descriptions of each of the ‘exchanges’ or zones within the science hub and communicating the live, work, play, learn integrated concept that envisages a science city within a city for the 21st century. As the infrastructure developed, the identity was applied to a comprehensive way-finding and signage system and applied to sub-brand identities to each of the exchange hubs.

To share ‘the heart of wellness’ by adding value to the lives of the customers by inspiring them to adopt healthy practices and lead a balanced and harmonious life. Leveraging from this insight, we moved to craft a well-defined brand roadmap to bring about a brand, retail, and culture revival. To cascade Ogawa’s goal across various consumer touchpoints, we embarked on a series of meaningful transformations. The organisation experienced a paradigm shift as we transformed its business model from product push to well-being focused. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing Ogawa’s sales promoters energised with a greater purpose as wellness advisors. We also successfully revitalised Ogawa’s brand identity system to share the joys of wellness using the specially-created, ‘happy world’ supergraphics. Believing in the value of experience design, we also worked to bring Ogawa’s new-found purpose to life through customer experience in its retail stores. We revolutionised Ogawa’s retail experiences based on the ‘oasis of discovery’ – a place that engages and delights the five senses.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space image_repeat="no-repeat"][vc_column_text] The...

This revealed a clear focus on holistic beauty amongst Asian women. A new brand positioning for Marionnaud in Asia was created around the concept of ‘beauty inspirations’. The idea encompasses both inner and outer beauty needs and was expressed through a new brand identity and in-store experience that made its debut in a new 10,000 sqft prototype store at the Mall of Asia in Manila. ‘Retailtainment’ was a key aspect of the experience concept and this was brought to life through features such as the cosmetic and fragrance bar, a beauty theatre for demonstrations and a juice bar to chill out, amongst others.
