- The Guardian, 200 Years A Work In ProgressThe Guardian turned 200 on May 5th 2021. Our challenge was to create a brand campaign around the bicentenary which didn't feel overly self-congratulatory. That felt like a celebration of the history and the impact of 200 years of progressive journalism and most importantly talked to the challenges which lay ahead.
