Atom Group
Industry: Spirits, E-commerce
Services Provided: Brand Identity System, Portfolio Presentation, Design Framework
Atom Group is home to a diverse portfolio of innovative and award-winning drinks brands. While each brand within the portfolio has a strong individual identity, there was a need to present the collective offering under a unified and credible Atom Group banner.
The existing Atom Group brand mark carried equity and recognition, but the broader brand system lacked cohesion and visual clarity. The challenge was to create a design approach that would both honour the existing identity and elevate the presentation of the group’s full portfolio.
Challenge
- Leverage the existing Atom Group brand mark without a full rebrand
- Create a design language that is ownable, clean, and modern
- Present a growing portfolio of brands in a way that feels premium and cohesive
- Ensure the system works across print, digital, internal, and external communications
Objectives
- Develop a flexible brand system that frames and celebrates the Atom Group portfolio
- Maintain the integrity of individual brands while creating a clear group-level identity
- Elevate perception of Atom Group as a strategic, forward-thinking umbrella brand
- Ensure visual consistency across pitch decks, sales materials, web, and events
