We are ‘i-am’

Page 4: I am food & drinks creds presentation

Because of the work done by ‘i-am’, every day is as busy as a weekend, we always sell out of everything.’’Claire BuysonFounder

‘i-am’ created the Lakwatsa brand by developing a new identity, brand communication, and store design concept.

This included introducing quirky design ideas that fitted in a lounge atmosphere, but made Lakwatsa stand out from the crowd. ‘i-am’ designers developed swing seats of stripped back wood, vegetable crates topped with cushions held on by belts for additional seating. They also designed a scrabble letter menu board and a loyalty card system that features Polaroid pictures and Lakwatsa loyalty cards pinned on a cork wall.

Dubbed ‘the Starbucks of bubble tea’ in Marie Claire magazine, Lakwatsa has been going from strength to strength, and its loyal fan base continues to grow.

Chilango Logotype: Angled Version

Chilango has achieved 100% uplift in sales. This is unheard of in the restaurant industry.’’Dan HoughtonFounding Partner, Chilango

We worked together with the Chilango founders on every creative aspect of their business. We created a brand name and introduced a true Latin spirit to the personality that customers could readily engage with.

The Chilango name perfectly captures the essence of modern Mexico and gives it a twist of urban cool. The new interior concept is fast, vibrant and energising.

Eight years down the line Chilango now has five successful UK sites and was recently awarded ‘best new restaurant concept’ at the ROTI awards.

Since working with ‘i-am’, like-for-like sales at East Street have increased by 75%.’’David FoxFounder, East Street

‘i-am’ were appointed to create a new brand identity, including a new name and logo, graphic elements and complete interior design for this London-based site.

East Street was created, and everything about the concept was taken directly from the raw vibe of Southeast Asian street food and night markets. The long benches and plastic tables recreate the feeling of being in Vietnam or Thailand under a low glow of neon light, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the kitchen.

Visiting Rangsit Floating Market,Thailand for the first time...

I am always on the lookout for new food dishes that I have never tried before. Like anyone else, I love pad thai and was really happy to see a food stall at the market specializing in different versions of pad thai. These are the two that I ate. The first used crispy deep fried wide noodles and the second used green papaya instead of noodles. I would have eaten the whole menu if I had room.

We’re absolutely delighted with the work that ‘i-am’ did for us – we’ve just had our best 6 months of trading since we opened 17 years ago!’’Simon PrideauxManaging Director

Owner of VQ, Simon Prideaux, came to us with a brief to rebrand and redesign his legendary 24-hour dining concept. Customers range from families at lunchtime, to tourists stopping in for afternoon coffee, and clubbers in the middle of the night. VQ has to function differently for each of these customers, and this had to be understood and incorporated into the design and experience.

Customers frequently comment on the ‘wonderful feeling’ created by the bespoke lighting. The space is not only stylish and contemporary but also functional, comfortable and welcoming to all people at all times. The queue outside often reaches around the block for a seat - even in the middle of the night.

We love Comptoir Libanaisnot only for its delicious Lebanese fast food but for its stylish surroundings.’’Vogue MagazineUK

Tony Kitous, the brains behind popular London restaurants Levant, Kenza and Pasha is the man responsible for putting glamour into mezze dining. Tony launched the Comptoir Libanais café concept providing 'food to share' within a unique eclectic environment inspired by the faded glamourof 1960's Middle East.

We worked with Tony to define and express the brand personality for Comptoir Libanais. The resulting vibrant brand language has been applied to all aspects of the business including interiors, packaging, menus and signage.

The new brand experience captures the very essence of unconventional Middle Eastern glamour and has been nominated for 'Best Restaurant Multiple' of the year by Restaurant Magazine.

I get approached by dozens of design agencies every month, however I chose ‘i-am’ because they offered something different, a well thought out solution, beautifully expressed.’’Julian MetcalfeJoint Founding Partner, Itsu

Julian is on a mission to bring delicious, affordable, healthy, 'fast food' to a much wider audience through a national network of eat-in and take-away Itsu restaurants. We were asked to communicate the Itsu brand story and design the ultimate Itsu restaurant experience.

Today a whole new audience is being introduced to the benefits of healthy eating and we continue to enjoy an ongoing relationship with one of the great thought leaders within the food sector.

Shawa: Logotype & Strapline

This group of Middle Eastern restaurant brands mainly operate within the UK.

‘i-am’ were asked to work closely with the owner of the group to develop their current restaurants and to design and launch new concepts.

The team worked with the Shawa team, to produce a brand identity and store concept that excited their customers. The Comptoir Libanais brand has been designed and created for Westfield’s White City and The O2 in London.

An on-going roll-out of new restaurant concepts is planned for the future.

Thanks to ‘i-am’, Shawa has now put real glamour into shawarma dining.’’Tony KitousOwner, Shawa

‘i-am’ have now created, developed, and implemented three different retail formats: ‘Elegant Living’, ‘Home Gift & Garden’ and ‘Outdoor’ and three food formats: ‘Simple Food’, ‘Kitchen Cafe’ and ‘Destination Restaurants’ across 500 National Trust locations in the UK.

‘i-am’ have helped National Trust double its restaurant income within the last 5 years.”Stuart RichardsHead of Food and Retail

Costa Coffee were positioned by ‘i-am’ as the true ‘Coffee Lovers’ with all the understanding, artistry, and care needed to make the perfect cup of coffee.

‘i-am’ developed a strong visual language and tone of voice to better serve and inform existing customers, as well as communicate the Costa story to all non-advocates.

Costa has moved from being ‘just another coffee shop’ to ‘the only genuine coffee shop’. This unique proposition managed to set Costa apart from the competition.

The work from ‘i-am’ was top. They are always excellent at understanding the brief and interpreting it in a way that brings it to life. Their work for Costa is a prime example.”Laurie MorganManaging Director
