Witzig is the doggy lifestyle brand made for dachshund lovers

The canine world is an enduring source of inspiration for creatives, as seen with everything from The Gourmand’s annual calendar Dog Eat Dog, in which dogs named after food are photographed with their namesakes, to Jean Jullien’s playful take on man’s pesky best friend in illustrated card game Dodgy Dogs.

As a studio full of dog lovers, getting the opportunity to build a pooch-focused brand from scratch was a dream project for New York based ThoughtMatter – which is exactly what happened when pet care company Kinship approached the team to launch Witzig, a lifestyle brand and community designed for daschund lovers.

Witzig’s site features a range of products and merch for sausage dogs and their owners, which sits alongside content such as helpful how-to guides and personal stories. ThoughtMatter was brought in to create the brand identity and strategy, logo and illustrations, and worked with digital agency Markacy on the website.

“Dachshunds are known for their big personalities as they are usually very smart, clever, and lively,” says ThoughtMatter design director Wednesday Krus. “Everything we heard about dachshunds seemed like they are witty creatures too, so the name Witzig (which means ‘witty’ in German) came to be. It also has a fun, lively sound to it, which felt right for the brand and breed.”

Taking cues from dachshunds’ unique sausage-like body shapes, the identity aims to reflect the more unusual aspects of the breed. The logo is based on a warped font, and has a dachshund illustration hidden in the letterforms. The studio also used a range of illustration, photography styles and colour palettes.

“With this execution we really wanted to convey that the brand understands the unique qualities of dachshunds, their owners, and both of their needs. People see their pets as more than companions, as true family members, so our work had to show that connection,” says ThoughtMatter design director Sam Barbagiovanni.

“To do this, we used an expressive illustration style that showed dachshund owners as reflections of their pets – including long legs, short legs, odd hair, and more – to connect them to the weird shape of dachshunds. We also used an unusual colour palette, pairing brown with bright purple and yellow, and adding cool blues to bring an element of unexpected brightness to the brand.”

Witzig hosted a series of pre-launch events in LA, Houston, and New York City for dachshund owners to meet up, learn about the brand, and have professional photos of their dachshunds taken. The photos were then used to create a sausage dog-themed coffee table book, which is also available on Witzig’s site.

The 18 Best Things to See and Do in Oslo

Image
Posted : 6/26/2020 | June 26th, 2020 Balancing natural beauty, historic architecture, and a modern flair, Oslo , Norway’s beautiful capital, is a city that punches well above its weight. It’s small but bursting with things to do: there are countless museums, spacious parks, and delicious restaurants to keep you busy. It’s close to numerous forests with hiking and biking trails, and there are lots of places to swim in the summer too. However, since it’s expensive, a lot of travelers pass Oslo by. While a visit will certainly eat into your budget, Oslo is definitely worth a couple of days. To help show precisely why you should add it to your itinerary, here are my favorite things to see and do in Oslo:   1. Take a Free Walking Tour I always start my trips off with a free walking tour. They’re a budget-friendly way to see the main sights, learn a little history, meet other travelers, and get access to an expert local guide who can answer all my questions. Free Tour Oslo organ...

Practical Action rebrands to show “how small actions can change the big picture”

Image
NB Studio has created a new identity for Practical Action, a UK development organisation. Practical Action was established in 1966 with the aim of creating appropriate technologies for developing regions of the world. It works primarily in Eastern and Southern Africa, South Asia and Latin America. It was founded by economist and philosopher Fritz Schumacher whose book, Small is Beautiful, champions the concept that small changes can empower people more than big ones. Practical Action’s aim is to provide sustainable technologies – systems that countries can accommodate with their existing resources – instead of providing large-scale aid that cannot be easily sustained. The charity was originally called Intermediate Technology Development Group but was changed to Practical Action in 2005. “Ingenuity People” Nick Finney, founder and creative director at NB Studio, says that the brand update aims to clarify the charity’s function. One of the problems with its previous names, Finne...

The legacy of Life magazine’s images celebrated in new show

Image
When Life magazine was re-launched by magazine magnate Henry Luce in 1936, the idea was to put photojournalism at the forefront and publish only photography-led stories. Readers soon became accustomed to seeing images from around the world that gave them the kind of first-hand insight they’d never previously had. At one point it was selling 13.8 million copies a week, and in its lifetime the magazine commissioned more than 120,000 stories and 10 million photographs. Life was published up until 2000, and to celebrate the contributions the magazine made to documentary photography and photojournalism, Atlas Gallery in London is exhibiting a selection of some of the magazine’s most iconic and influential photographs.
