We're getting a lot of questions about frames the above, they are 'Luciano' by our friends at retrosuperfuture
Dance For Life
Dance for Life is a Bradford City Council initiative to get the young and old interested in a healthy life style through dance events and classes. In an attempt to spice up proceedings, Grant Midwinter has been known to burst into a River Dance in the odd client meeting and on this occasion it was warmly received.More
Brief
The Dance for Life brand had stagnated. Grant Midwinter's brief was to re-invent Dance for Life as a polished, vibrant brand on-and-offline.
Solution
Grant Midwinter transformed Dance for Life into a contemporary, fun and inclusive brand. We did this by treating the health-related, frivolous and cultural motives for dancing as equally valid. This perspective evolved into an ethos adapted by the members of Dance for Life and applied through branding and the website design. By creating a modular branding system, Dance for Life developed a life of its own and now adapts to the audience it attracts; visitors to the site can suggest their motives to dance and the Dance for Life team change the brand accordingly.
