Design

flying monkey branding

Our branding development from 2000 onwards.

Designs by Neil Cowan, Maya Gavin and Peter Curzon.

  • Desktop Bastards

    Before we became flying monkey we were “Some Blokes”, named thus so that when clients were asked who designed their graphics they could say “some blokes in Covent Garden”. Shortly thereafter we became “Desktop Bastards” using the strapline “We work like bastards and we don’t clean our Macs.”. Compliment slip shown above.

  • The Bird logo

    Designed by Peter Curzon for our Wye Fayre music festival. Originally this bird was pictured exploring a magical forest that represented a mythical Albion. It also reminds us of the wonderful characters in 60’s and 70’s Polish animation. So we adopted it.
