Gulf Drug – From old establishment to new dynamic brand

By admin

gulf_drug_logo_aisbrandlabGulf Drug Establishment has long been known as one of the leading players in healthcare product and services in the UAE since its foundation in 1969 but it’s identity had fallen behind the times and no longer reflected it’s unique and enduring brand values nor it’s innovative and farsighted nature.

AIS>BrandLab’s Barcelona and Dubai offices worked together to develop a new identity which could help reinstate Gulf Drug as a visionary, innovative and customer centric brand.

As part of the identity overhaul we produced comprehensive brand manuals to help Gulf Drug implement and maintain the new look across it’s many and varied applications, from it’s public facing retail outlets and clinics to the behind the scenes distribution services and institutional operations across the Gulf region.

Alex Truchut – More is more

By David Brown

More is most definitely the new less. Barcelona’s favourite typographic son has released his much anticipated book “More is more” on Barcelona’s own Index Books imprint. When it comes to typography, Alex chose the route that doesn’t lead to Swiss design’s austere front door. His rich, vibrant and often intricate work is undeniably that of a craftsman in love with his craft and is avidly followed by his doting fans, many of whom unashamedly pay homage to his influence in their own work.
