Live experience is local, and big brands want agencies that know each market. 27Names brings Europe's leading independent live-experience agencies together, one per country. The brand had to hold 27 different companies, each with its own name and look, and still read as one network.

Overview

We built 27Names' brand world: the story and positioning, a new identity and brand guidelines, the digital presence, and the design of The Barometer Report.

1,500+ people, 500+ awards. One leading independent agency in each market, now under one identity.

The Idea

27 perspectives, one point of view.

Unleash

We built a system that holds the whole network together.

Logo

The original mark drew on Bodoni. We kept that tribute and gave the 27 the lead role, set in Canela above the name, so the number the network is named after comes first.

Country cut outs and cards

Each member has a country silhouette, 27 in all, with seven regional shapes for comparing markets. The most important device is the country card, which gives every member agency a place inside the 27Names identity without breaking the brand's rules.

Colour and type

The colours are bright on purpose, to reflect the creativity across the network: yellow, orange, pink and light blue, with yellow on charcoal for the more elevated moments. Type is Helvetica Now, neutral enough to sit beside 27 agency identities.
