Client: Amar
Amar is a designer woman’s clothing and fashion online store that has a selection of boutiques
in Australia, Europe and Asia. With a passion for design and a flair for innovation, Amar required
a stylish, feminine and unique website that reflected its market proposition, ‘transcending cultures, borders and languages’.
Amar was already a stylish modern brand, but they lacked any visual properties. We saw opportunity
in creating a new visual identity with a range of visual properties that Amar could own and use. The stylish oriental pattern and bird, combind with a floral sign posts and frames, creates a delicate balance of east meets west.

Gelati Sky is a boutique, premium gelati range. The story of Gelati Sky has a strong personality driven by Gelati Sky founder Paul Scalisi’s memories of growing up in Rome, eating gelati – ‘a world where every moment seemed frozen in an amazing sensory assault and every cloud in the sky made you feel it was about to rain gelato’. We were looking for something that was strikingly unique, represented his story and would create conversation. The communication platform of ‘it’s what dreams taste like’ was derived out of the brand strategy definition for Gelati Sky conducted by Brand DNA.
