The 2025 ICC Champions Trophy, held from 19 February to 9 March, marked the ninth edition of the tournament and was co-hosted by Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). India clinched their third title by defeating New Zealand in the final, becoming the first team to win the Champions Trophy three times. The branding includes a customised version of Halisa Condensed (with a custom R, K and spacing) with support of a custom version of Averta (with a custom R, K), both from The Designers Foundry.

Plackers is a brand of floss picks. Since 2017, the logo was based on Noe Display Bold, with a couple of modifications made to it, including a “laughing” eye in e and beefed-up hairlines. It replaced a previous version using Filmotype Harvard. In 2024, Plackers rebranded again. The new logo uses bold round sans-serif letters, possibly from BC Alphapipe.

On the packaging designs, the logo in modified Noe Display is paired with Averta. The geometric sans is used for instructions as well as the slogans, including “Smile like everyone’s watching”.

Desired Landscapes by founding editor and creative director Natassa Pappa is a magazine reading into a diverse mix of cities. Each issue explores the sense of a place and the visual representation of the urban experience. It is a pocket-sized collection of person-to-place bonds, urban observations, and poetic snapshots, seen through the eyes of people who write the stories of today’s cities.

This research expands to further printed matter having the city as a source, such as maps and guidebooks, but also to walking tours and urban research workshops.

Issue 04 arose “from the urge to create a vehicle to travel without traveling. As an unfortunate surprise, that became even more relevant during Covid-19 days. Instead of designing maps of routes, we now count walking distances, to see who are we allowed to see. With this issue, we rethought walking, the hotel, online meetings and telepathy. Sometimes, the experience of reading a text about a city can be more enlightening than an actual visit. And a city's image can be more rewarding.”

The use of Skanaus can be mentioned here especially, as one reason why It came to use is the fact, that it was designed by Daniel Gremme during an exchange semester in Vilnius — one of the cities explored in this issue. Skanaus is a guest typeface alongside the magazine’s stalwart typefaces Farnham and Averta.

Packaging design for Oxygen Species, a series of cosmetics by Derma Organic Science (DOS).
In order to communicate the modern and premium character of the products we created a harmonious and abstract packaging with typographical intensity, pairing Averta with Lynx.

A white color base is used to evoke clarity and purity, while the silver-color details function as the mirrors of the beauty. The visual communication integrated with the chemical symbol of oxygen, attributed as a disc – jewelry of science.

From design studio busybuilding:

Akis Petretzikis constantly innovates with new products and fresh books. At the same time, he is becoming increasingly established in public awareness as a connoisseur in modern Greek cooking. His book aims to become a reference point of the traditional and modern Greek cuisine through its hundreds of favorite recipes and its timeless, friendly design.

We focused on a “Greek” white and blue color palette to highlight tradition and authenticity. Familiar photos with playful illustrative interventions, hand-written notes by Akis and a minimal design create a more personal look and feel and present a contemporary, youthful outcome.

On the cover and in the interior, headlines are set with the reversed contrast BPrever. The all-caps Atypical is used for chapter openings and short texts; the recipes are typeset with Averta. The cookbook, published by Psichogios as Η δική μου ελληνική κουζίνα (“My Greek Cuisine”), is also available in an English-language version named Greek comfort food.

A New Kind Of Kick is a brand perception agency based in London. Celebrating our year end we printed a promotional newspaper documenting the previous 12 months’ projects.

Contents includes global watched campaigns for Ingersoll 1892, the reinvention of Trenton, identity for BLK BX, a revolving retail space, as well as branding projects for Mint Pictures, Emit, Choice, and Artistry.

The project is built around personal expression, in communicating feelings that express one’s true self. These messages are conveyed through exquisite, beautiful and meaningful design. Dentro takes time to find and use the finest materials, and print with the highest quality digital printing systems currently available. Keeping their carbon footprint as small as possible all posters are printed onto paper upcycled from disposable coffee cups, breathing new life into a disregarded product.
