Cakes to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Cambridge Allia Future Business Centre 10th anniversary of the Cambridge Allia Future Business Centre

Allia have been at the forefront of impact innovation since 1999.

In this time, they have helped hundreds of start-ups, small businesses and impact ventures to develop and grow, creating thousands of employment opportunities, and transforming communities.

Their social finance solutions have raised millions to help charitable organisations with their development and impact aims. And their business centres offer office space, flexible co-working and networking. A vibrant business community, creating positive impact for people, place and planet.

Over the past seven years, we have collaborated with Allia on numerous projects, including:

  • A two-minute animation designed to clearly and engagingly explain the organisation’s work. The animation combined a sketchy, informal illustration style and font with the brand’s font and colour palette. An upbeat, modern soundtrack complemented the visual elements perfectly.
  • Printed materials, such as a snapshot leaflet to introduce the organisation and showcase its various initiatives, and an Impact Report providing an in-depth overview of the last 20 years. The report included case studies from all parts of the organisation and an infographic highlighting a selection of projects and the financial support provided over the past two decades.
  • Both printed and digital advertising campaigns.
  • Signage elements for their new sites, following the acquisition of a second building on their outer Cambridge site and a central Cambridge location. This included the design and installation of large-scale building graphics.
  • Banners and literature for the 10th-anniversary celebrations of their first Cambridge site, which we were honoured to attend.

Having worked with the team at D&A for a number of years at previous organisations, I was keen to get them involved at Allia. I knew from past experience that their design flair and subtlety would be ideal for refreshing the way we treat our brand. What we’ve ended up with is a beautiful suite of new collateral that has been really well received and helps us to better communicate our mission and vision.
