On street level, CBD pub The Civic Hotel looks like any other mid-century Sydney corner boozer, with its tiled frontage, red-brick facade and curvaceous corners.

Feed identity, from DutchScot
London-based design studio DutchScot has created a typographic identity for social media and content creation agency Feed. “Their spirit is young and vibrant but it’s backed up by expertise,” studio partner Alex Swatridge tells Design Week. The logo is a “living, breathing representation of the word ‘Feed’” and is constantly moving vertically online. It aims to reflect how people scroll through feeds on their phones, tablets and computers. There are more nods to the company’s social media-focus throughout. Rolling over an image will reveal an emoji relevant to that particular field, and if you leave the website open, it’s eventually taken over by a crowd of the icons.
