Projects
- Southport OrchestraNorthbank has been working with Southport Orchestra since 2015. The starting point was to create an Orchestra identity that conveyed its diverse repertoire and interesting membership. There are contrasts to be found throughout this Orchestra. For example, one of the Clarinetists was a Software Engineer on the EuroFighter Typhoon, and during working hours the Conductor (and Flautist) is an Asset Finance Broker. Although amateurs, the Orchestra punches above its weight, and concerts are accomplis
- Slaughter and MaySlaughter and May is one of the best law firms in the world. To coincide with their move to a tailor-made HQ, Northbank was asked to initiate an extensive internal and external audit of their identity and communications. The resulting evolution of the identity with implementation across all aspects of the firm’s communications, helped underline Slaughter and May’s reputation for excellence, their self-assured and impressive approach, the progressive and different way they work, whilst moving the
- Alconbury Weald MakeGrowOnce home to the RAF, and later the US Air Force, the former airfield at Alconbury is truly vast.

Moment in Time follows the fans home and away, looks at how the community is intricately linked to the Club, highlights the characters within the team and shows the raw passion and emotion in the stands around the grounds.
- Society of Wood EngraversWe were delighted to work with The Society of Wood Engravers in their centenary year, designing and producing a 76-page exhibition catalogue. 2020 marked a century since a group of ten artists founded the Society. Among these, Philip Hagreen, Lucien Pissarro, Robert Gibbings, Noel Rooke, Eric Gill and Gwen Raverat began the Annual Exhibition which soon attracted work from other notable artists such as David Jones, Clare Leighton, Paul Gauguin, John and Paul Nash. Their main aim was to promote w
- The Last Stand photobookNorthbank was delighted to work with Bath-based photographer Marc Wilson on the third edition of his photobook, The Last Stand. Marc’s work reflects the histories and stories of military conflict and the memories held in the landscape itself. Over four years from 2010, Marc traveled 23,000 miles to 143 locations to document some of the physical remnants of the second world war on the coastlines of the UK and northern Europe, focusing on military defence structures that remain and their place in
