A few snaps from yesterday’s .lunch at

So good to catch up with regular Long Lunchers and old colleagues as well as meeting plenty of new faces.

These were all before it got rather messy. There’ll be more than a few sore heads today.

Yesterday was the annual .lunch event which was held at

In our third year as the official design partner we brought a touch of class to the creative alongside who printed the collateral with a rose gold foil on white ink on black card.

Thanks again to for keeping us involved and to everyone who came along.

Our partners in crime joined us this year helping out with socials.

On the 23rd June, UK based pop star released her second album ‘The Good Witch’ which quickly went to number one in the UK charts. Hey! What? was asked by to create a suite of custom illustrated tarot cards to tease out on social in the 15 weeks leading up to the albums release.

After gaining over 400K organic likes on Instagram alone and a multitude of requests from fans, the tarot cards were printed and turned into merchandise which quickly sold out via Maisie’s website. Superfans also shared their own recreations of the tarot cards on her Discord channel and we were then asked to turn the concepts into simple YouTube lyric videos.

Working for Atlantic and putting our in-house illustration skills to use has been a real highlight to our year and it was great to play our small part in the promotion of Maisie’s album. Some of the team also managed to catch her live on Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage! We also think .design might be an undercover superfan.

Excited to say we are now working with the iconic
brand.

Especially exciting for Chris and Hamish who have followed the progress since the 80s and been mesmerised by the scratch skills and beat juggling from the crem dela crem of champions and performers that have been part of the DMC movement.

For our first project we were asked to create a poster and social content for a call out to djs who might have what it takes to compete at the DMC finals at

Chris wanted the design to be as authentic to the DMC’s legacy as a brand and considered their original typographic treatments and layout.

Extra points of you can tell us where the pattern around the edges has been inspired now.

Unleash the power of drumming with Hey! What? and . 🥁🎨

We collaborated with on an exciting animation project, "The Science Behind the Sticks," which explored the positive effects of drumming on the human mind and body. 💪 The research, which was undertaken in conjunction with Roland, scientists and Blondie's legendary drummer Clem Burke, found that drumming can have similar effects on the body as those seen in professional athletes, creating new neural pathways for stroke and mental health patients. 🤘

Check out the link in bio to see the animation and learn more about our partnership with Roland.

Our new artwork for ’s up coming spring equinox party ‘Meridian Soluna’ is out and tickets are now on sale.

And we’re not ashamed to say we utilised some AI.

The main sun and moon emblem was generated from the simple prompt ‘sun moon face’ and we used a few variations until we got the look we wanted.

As I’m sure with many other creatives and designers out there we have been questioning the use of AI. We would have loved to illustrate our own custom image and then put it into 3D but with time and budget against us we thought AI was actually a more authentic approach over using a stock image. AI is also featured at Wake the Tiger so it kind of felt appropriate.

The rest of the image was collaged together in Photoshop using elements from the venue and stock imagery.

We’d love to hear your thoughts on our use of AI!
