NEURONS

Project Background

Visual identity and logo for Neurons, a bi-annual club night hosted by Milli Hunter (noodle) at Sneaky Pete’s. The night raises money for mental health charities and focuses on building atmosphere and energy within the brand’s direction.

Creative Direction

The creative direction took neurons as a starting point, translating them through hand-drawn, organic forms rather than literal or clinical imagery. The logo was drawn loosely, with imperfections left visible to give it movement and a sense of energy suited to a club environment.

Outcome

Applied across print and digital, the identity functioned as a flexible system rather than a fixed set. Its loose, tactile quality allowed it to shift between formats while maintaining a recognisable tone that felt energetic and informal.
