The Clarity
The solution was simple yet beautiful, approachable and unique, and with space to evolve with the business model. Our exploration made our direction clear, creating a visual identity that plays with modern pop colours, custom type, traditional illustration and 1970’s imagery in a way that feels fresh and inviting. A brand that boldly stands apart from its more muted competitors. Blurring the lines between convention and innovation, Same Place is a testament to the power of collaboration and a desire for a space that fosters both individual growth and community connection.
