Chenot shines a light on the importance of investing in mental and physical health - at the earliest possible age - to achieve a high performing, strong, healthy and well-balanced life.

SPECIAL YACHT OPERATIONS

Our latest work for longstanding client, Ocean Independence sets a new benchmark in the industry for presenting technical superyacht management services. 

Our direction is noticeably different to the lifestyle-orientated works to date for sales and charter services; the new route references the precision and acute technical expertise underpinning superyacht management. Maximum impact is achieved with little written language and visual cues appealing to those with the most limited time. 

Working with Daniel Küpfer, Operations Director, we were responsible for creating three dedicated client-facing proposals, covering Pre-Project Management, Project Management and Operational Management. 

Our work included concept origination, art direction of all illustration works – including front cover artwork, flow charts and iconography; design, layout and copywriting. 

‘THE RED EDGE’ FILM

Presenting a new company video that we created for award-winning luxury travel company, Red Savannah. The film is entitled – The Red Edge – a bold new positioning that we devised for the brand referencing over a decade of personal service, imaginative attention and reputation for having “the best little books in the business”. One Menagerie was responsible for the film concept, wordcraft, motion graphics and all editing. This new film follows our work to establish the new positioning across Red Savannah’s brand and marketing channels including a website homepage refresh, content marketing campaign and print advertising. 

“One Menagerie have been exceptional in every respect. In addition to their deep understanding of everything brand related, they bring a refreshingly innovative approach to creativity. They live for quality of work and in every case, they have always successfully interpreted the brief and delivered within deadlines.”

— George Morgan-Grenville, Founder & CEO of Red Savannah

DESIGN-LED CRAFTSMANSHIP

As part of our rebrand for super-prime residential construction company, Verve Concepts, we conceived an original design concept for presenting their handover documentation to clients on completion of a project. The new Handover Packs are intended as a stand-alone piece for a desk or shelf, containing all information on a bespoke USB device. 

The subtly crafted V formation of the Handover Packs is inspired by the Verve ethos of ‘Design-Led Construction’ with the new visual and verbal identity displayed using special foiling and embossing techniques. Reflecting our vision for the rebrand, we used a mixture of specialist Gmund Urban Architecture Paper - chosen for their contemporary texture and materiality. 

Partnering with renowned Paris-based fine art printers, Imprimerie du Marais, our design concept was brought to life with impeccable craftsmanship for the construction and finishing including all prototyping and a hidden magnet for the final product. Photo credit: Margaux Piette.

We selected Eleven to help bring our vision to life. Their exemplary work included bespoke 3D modelling; highly detailed materiality and product rendering; working closely with our Design Director, Sam Laurie, to set a new benchmark in superlative visualisation.

Our work has been featured in The Times, Country & Town House and Country Life.
