Fello is a Swedish mobile phone provider that focuses on simplicity, honesty, and customer care. When Bold was commissioned with the rebranding, the focus was on refreshing the brand identity. The goal was to increase recognition and make Fello’s positive qualities more tangible.

The result is a flexible but consistent design system that relies entirely on Grato Classic for its typography. Bold’s creative director explains the choice as follows:

Grato Classic had the perfect balance of character and simplicity that we were looking to strike with Fello’s rebrand. It’s distinct enough to work nicely as a headline — but hardworking enough to be leveraged across type styles. We saw its playful, conversational, tonality rhyming particularly well with the tone of voice we were looking to land with the Fello mascot, so to us it felt like a perfect fit for the new brand.

Designed by Studio Round in 2022, the new look for Australia’s oldest professional theatre company includes a dynamic website, posters, brochures, tickets, and social media presence.

The humanist Grato Classic, with its geometric core, not only takes the stage as the logo typeface for the Melbourne Theatre Company, but also serves as headline font together with GT America. The neo-grotesque Acumin performs in small sizes of the body text.
