Studio Treble

'Better futures for nature, people and places’ – the core mission of environmental consultancy, @lucinsider , and the driver of the brief they shared with us. 🌳 We were tasked with crafting a new website for the employee-owned organisation, which better described their values, expertise and the reason why they take on the projects they do. 🌿 We led the LUC team through a thorough UX process, creating personas that best reflected their audience and using these as the backbone of our design choices. Getting LUC’s people and projects upfront meant clients get a real sense of who they are and what it’s like to work with them. 🌏 Alongside the website, we brought the LUC Charter to life – a manifesto that describes how and why they operate in the way they do. We created both a Charter document which saw the first use of brand illustration, and a film that sits as a hero piece on the website in describing their culture and process.

A big day for us! After a period of looking at why we set up Studio Treble, the people we work with and our ambitions for what a company should be, we are proud to announce we are a #BCorp, joining a global community of businesses measuring our social and environmental impact! It’s been a lot of work, pulling it all apart and putting it all back together again, making sure that we are measuring our impact in the world. As a digital company it might seem like we have less to worry about in terms of our impact in the world – we don’t create much waste, there’s no shipping or packaging. But as digital becomes so ubiquitous it’s also created a fog that hides its true impact. The carbon footprint of these applications has a real cost and shouldn’t be taken lightly. One of the biggest changes we made as an organisation had far reaching impacts to every aspect of the studio. We transitioned all of our digital projects to a whole new stack that allows for a truly green solution for our clients moving forward. It’s something that all of our clients transitioning with us have being loving, allowing themselves to feel safe in the knowledge their digital carbon footprint is minimised. It took a whole lot of work from the whole team to get this the accreditation and something that we are truly proud of.

A new Cardiff-based restaurant and bar inspired by the Welsh war tribe, Silures. That was the start of a new brand, print and digital brief from the folks at A&M Hospitality, and we were delighted to help! Taking cues from the history of Silures, we developed an identity that hinges on runic markings, and an earthy palette that points to the local Welsh produce and sustainable ingredients the team features in their menu. 🌱 We rolled the brand out across a whole host of collateral – a website and booking platform, premium invitations to the opening launch, food and cocktail menus, bill holders and much more. 🍸 We can’t wait to visit soon for a sample of the much anticipated menu! 🍽️ Photography by @studioloop__ 📸 Check out @silurescardiff and book your visit!

Have you ever thought about how our eyes view an image? Are we passive or deliberate? And how much control do we have as designers when deciding where our viewer's gaze should be? Our digital designer, @_valentinasantolini explores exactly that in our latest thought piece. Link in bio!

We're extremely excited to welcome outdoor arts and experience creators @walktheplankarts as a new client of ours at Studio Treble!    📣 Since January we've been heads down in workshops and the early stages of crafting a new website for Walk the Plank – a site that better represents them and celebrates the incredible work they do at both a large-scale international level and locally with communities across Greater Manchester.    🎙️ Liz Pugh, Co-Founder and Creative Producer at Walk the Plank says, "We're delighted to be working with design agency Studio Treble to ensure our new website meets the needs of our future clients and partners. Communicating the true breadth of our work – from epic to intimate – can be a challenge, and we're excited by the collaborative nature of Studio Treble's creative process so far in really understanding us and our ambition. We can't wait to see where this journey takes us."

What does the future of our high street look like? We were approached by @futureverything to build an online digital platform to give Manchester’s young people a chance to answer this question. 🧪 Through a series of collaborative, online workshops we brought the ideas of ten Young Producers to the fore. Together with local artists, Citizen Futurists, we translated a smorgasbord of digital content into a fully explorable 3D world, giving the Young Producers a space to own and reflect their ideals. 🙌 Through a fully interactive experience visitors can explore digital artworks and participate in the wider conversation around the future of the high street, giving Greater Manchester authorities a way to understand the youth voice and inform their messaging moving forward. 🌊 this place [of mine] aims to continue gathering ideas from even more young people across the UK and bring new digital platforms to each location. this place [of mine]: Grimsby, the second town to partake, launched January 2023!

The Fable Tree – the first Christmas menu from the imagination of Heston Blumenthal for The Fat Duck restaurant, all built around the question, ‘what is Christmas without a tree?’ 🌱 We crafted a digital experience that tied the restaurant booking process to the physical meal at The Fat Duck. Rather than fill in a traditional booking form, guests were invited to digitally plant the seed of a Fir tree, and on doing so were asked to unearth their favourite memories of Christmas. 🌲 Those memories were then collated by the Fat Duck team and played back to guests as nostalgic moments of serendipitous theatre during the meal. Upon leaving the restaurant, guests were presented with the sprig of a Fir tree that they could take away with them to plant and nurture.

The new Studio Treble website is now LIVE. A site that feels more like us, the people we work with and the projects we work on. Take a look for yourself ⬇️ studiotreble.com

🎉 Let’s kick start 2023 with a new project — a new website for music development organisation, @brightersound ! 🎵Brighter Sound specialise in developing and nurturing musicians at any stage of their career. They came to us following an exciting rebrand and were looking for a better way to showcase themselves and their offering online. 🔍 We began by getting under the skin of their ambitions and audiences. Brighter Sound work with such a broad range of people, skills, needs and ages, and it was critical to map these to certain persona types and user journeys through the site — making sure users could access the events, workshops and resources that spoke directly to them. 🖥️ Alongside that we developed the digital side of their brand identity, giving them a suite of illustrations, motion elements and email campaigns to help inject even more personality to their digital presence. ➡️ Explore the new site to learn even more about Brighter Sound: brightersound.com

🤩 We can’t wait to get going in the New Year, working with clients new and existing on projects across design, digital and motion.
