Summer at Seaton

Born out of a need to revitalise Seaton Carew’s coastal economy post-pandemic, Summer at Seaton quickly transformed from a recovery campaign into a staple of the regional event calendar.

Today, the campaign is still thriving, anchored entirely by the vibrant brand identity and core assets we developed way back in 2021.

Making waves

We kicked things off with a deep-dive branding exercise. We crafted a custom style guide and a bespoke illustration library designed to capture the breezy, energetic spirit of the Hartlepool coast.

This brand identity became the ultimate creative sandbox, designed to ensure every single piece of future marketing would feel like part of the same family for years to come.

The sheer scale of the initial launch was massive, requiring us to flood the coast with everything from eye-catching bus shelter ads and leaflets to interactive activity packs and animated video end cards. If a you could see it, we designed it.

Our sandcastle is still standing

We didn’t just hand over designs, we handed over creative freedom. Our foundationals gave their internal team total independence to confidently produce their own cohesive social media and marketing content year after year.

We still collaborate on shiny new assets from time to time, but watching their team run with the brand and keep it beautifully consistent has been a highlight!
