Researching graphic design companies: II - Bostock and Pollitt

Bostock and Pollitt are a design agency with a heritage of award-winning. In their earlier years they specialised in literature work but are today keen to affirm that they do not restrict themselves as a means to grow as a company.

Sample of portfolio

Foxhall London website

The use of wood textures and brown suggests that Foxhall want to be seen as rugged and somewhat old-fashioned clothing company. The typography of the logo is rather basic, but the disjointed shapes within it create a connection to this idea of woodwork. A rather effective design all in all.

Macmillan Cancer Support binder/planner

Macmillan's identity is made memorable by the combination of cartoon-like typography and greens of several shades. A clean and consistent design.

The Body Shop values report

I admire The Body Shop's logo very much. Clean, versatile typography enveloped by a compact arc. 

Revitalising the Directgov brand

Basic, stern typography which makes good use of the arrow shape. The orange provides a fine base that makes the logo and additional text exceptionally clear.
