The idea of creating a calendar was always at the top of our heads. However, Acre needed an idea that was sound, that made sense. Acre went back to our roots for that big idea, and we stumbled upon the fact our agency is named after a unit of measure. Things began to click into gear and the team worked to create a calendar that would highlight 12 units of measure . This brought a lot of symmetry to our design philosophy which melds sense and practicality together. This craft-centric calendar is designed to be practically functional as well as aesthetically pleasing.

Sofrecom is a telecommunications consultancy owned by the Orange Group. Despite a strong heritage (150 years of international projects), it needed to get out its message in highly crowded, competitive and changing telecoms landscape.
Fig Tree were asked to help Sofrecom stand on its own two feet by developing a narrative and personality that the organisation could embrace and campaign around.
Moser Design – Conservatoire de Lausanne
Until 2010, the brand Conservatoire de Lausanne included two schools with very different missions: a music school for children and amateurs, and a “haute école” of music dedicated to training professional musicians. The confusion between the two schools lead >moser to create two independent brands, the Conservatoire de Lausanne and HEMU.
The look and feel of the Conservatoire de Lausanne was rethought – for example the logo, visual identity and institutional documents – to express the driving principles that characterize the teachings of the school. Designed by Moser design.
