Could you go for a week without speaking?

We partnered with St Lucy’s School to rebrand their fundraiser, ‘Week Without Words’
which raises funds and awareness for children with communication disabilities.

Brand Identity, Tone of Voice, Photography, Character design, Posters, Cards

The lovely people at St Lucy’s School provide excellence in education for students with disabilities. BlueMelon was honoured to work with them on the branding of a very special and important campaign, ‘A Week Without Words’. Participants go silent for an hour or a whole day – and get sponsored to do it. The money raised helps provide communication tools, speech therapy, behavioural training and communication devices for children who struggle to communicate verbally.
THE PROBLEM

‘A Week Without Words’ rebrand

A Week Without Words was an amazing cause, but with limited funding they had missed some opportunities to amplify their messages and connect with the right audiences. We stepped in to help.

A unique brand for a truly unique cause.

We were honoured to help shape the authentic personality and voice of  Week Without Words.

THE SOLUTION

An evolution in the brand’s identity.

We helped develop a brand strategy; created a new visual identity, style guidelines; new collateral; and concepted special campaign cards.

Logo

We developed an eye-catching new logo with a playful hand device, forming a ‘w’ shape, symbolising Week Without Words. This icon was also inspired by the hand over mouth imagery that featured throughout the campaign. The vibrant pops of colour gave these messages a playful and optimistic tone.

Iconography

We created a suite of super cute characters to as brand mascots, who popped up everywhere throughout the campaign, across a range of brand collateral.

Print & other collateral

Posters and other collateral such as badges and t-shirts incorporated playful colour blocking alongside the fresh new logo and icons.

Cards

An innovative element of the campaign was a collection of cards that fundraisers could hold over their mouths to explain why they weren’t speaking, without using spoken words.

Every child deserves to be heard.

What an amazing cause for an amazing group of individuals! We learnt from this project that sometimes silence can hold more meaning than a thousand words.
