Made Thought Rebrands Paper-Maker, G.F Smith

By Editor April 25, 2014

Paper company G.F Smith has unveiled a new visual identity and design direction developed in collaboration with London-based brand consultants Made Thought.

The scope of work, spanning both print and digital communications, includes the creation of a new typeface and two new logomarks: a main identity, and a curator mark that aims to acknowledge G.F Smith’s current role as ‘curators’ of its paper Collection that comprises 38 papers divided across six separate categories: Colorplan, Fine Coated, Fine Uncoated, Textured, Specialist and Digital Papers.

The brand name is that of the founder — George Frederick Smith — the man who started the company in 1885. The strapline ‘1885 Onwards’ also accompanies the main identity.

The custom-designed G.F Smith typeface is a humanist sans that the company describes as being “a combination of the machine age and a more calligraphic line”.

Alongside the identity, the company has published ‘Portrait of a Company’, a new brand book that chronicles the history of G.F Smith.

We simply love logos! Logo-Designer.co is dedicated to corporate and brand identity work. Our primary goal is to showcase identity design from around the world; we want to give designers the opportunity to share and publicise their creative work online.

For all other enquires, including advertising placements, please complete this form:

*Required Fields

THANKS. YOUR MESSAGE HAS BEEN SENT.
WE'LL RESPOND SHORTLY.

Logo-Designer.co is an online platform open to both professionals and students. We’re interested in your logo’s ‘design story’ – context, history, background, ideation, narrative, symbolism, meaning, semiotics, and other such things. We want to see iterative sketches, including discarded preliminary and prefinal designs, wherever possible. If you’re able to tell us about budget and time constraints, please do so. The more information, the better.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

  • Provide large-sized images showing your design in lots of detail, saved at 150 or 300 dpi in JPEG (preferred) or PNG format
  • Include the ‘design story’ text document, not forgetting to list relevant categories and tags
  • Enclose the above in a single zip/rar file and send to: submissions [at] logo-designer [dot] co
  • You can submit more than one logo design; however, the limit is one submission per month
  • Be patient (it may be a while before we feature or publish your work).

OTHER CONTENT:

As well as logos, we’ll also consider the following for publication:

  • Font design
  • Icon design
  • Articles: opinion/advice (from both logo designers and brand strategy consultants).

RULES:

Please note: Logo-Designer.co will not show work related to any of the following:

  • Alcohol
  • Gambling
  • Tobacco
  • Pornography (or adult related themes).
