STRATEGY
We undertook extensive research and worked closely with Beyond Bouldering’s passionate community, every step of the climb.
Together we defined Beyond Bouldering as a place where people can come as they are and leave, bolder.
The brand’s personality and story were inspired by the sense of empowerment climbers feel when they’re bouldering, of having the ability to unlock a bolder self.
Our reimagined logotype was designed to emphasise Beyond and work vertically like a climber on a wall.
We transformed Beyond Bouldering’s past logo into a new graphic device by extruding two B’s and adding bouldering bolt holes. It became a repeatable symbol used on stickers, gear, clothing and climbing tags — a representation of flexibility and ascent.
We also restructured a fragmented colour palette that varied from location to location. Ultramarine blue became the hero colour, supported by a palette of secondary neons which added excitement atop timeless, neutral tones and materials.
