Cairde.

Ahead of their appearance on American and UK TV on St.Patrick’s Day in 2021, I was commissioned by Big and Bright to rebrand their client’s identity.

Cairde are a young traditional Irish dance group with a contemporary twist taking TikTok by storm.

The brief was to modernise the branding so that it fit with the TikTok audience, while still maintaining a link to their Irish heritage.

As part of the solution, I explored the use of traditional Irish Ogham lettering that read Cairde. Placed sideways, this can also be representative of the soundwaves from the songs the group dance to.

The font was modernised while retaining the Celtic feel, while the colours were chose to represent diversity and youth.
