RECLAIMED COLLECTIVE
Go forth
— and forage!

The Marque
—
The brand identity is based on the Australian bower bird, renowned for its creative nest building using a variety of found objects - a perfect metaphor for a master craftsman and forager.
The System
—
A variety of ‘found’ materials (timber, sandpaper, card etc.) were re-used and the contact details applied using a simple rubber stamp.
A branding iron was created as a way to brand each item of furniture.
Photography
—
Reportage styled photography was used to carry across the personality and way of working.
A unique, fun and engaging identity was created to communicate both professional craftsmanship and the quirky personality of Reclaimed Collectives’ founder.
