Man alive, we’ve done it again.
The Transform Awards hold a special place in the SomeOne collective heart. 16 years ago, we got a call from a chap called Andrew Thomas; he’d seen some of our branding work and invited us to send some in for his new awards scheme. His was different in that he wanted to invite the people who commissioned the work — yes, clients — to come in and pass judgment on what they saw to be the year’s best examples.
We thought it was a great idea. After all, where would we be without clients? We would not be writing this, that’s for sure. So we sent over a couple of our favourites from the year and — wallop — we won a slew of gongs.
While it was super to be judged by other people’s clients, our clients liked the recognition too. So we did it again the next year, and the next, every year coming away with an armful of trophies that just kept on coming.
We have won every year for the past 16 years. So it was with some astonishment that this year saw us win not one, but five glorious sparklers for three outstanding clients:
HaysMac took home accolades for Best Visual Property and Best Professional Services Branding.
Peckish was recognised for outstanding Naming and Best Branding in Retail.
St. John’s Cambridge commanded the top spot with the Gold for Best Branding in Education.
…of course — huge thanks to the Transform team, the esteemed client judges (some of whom we hope to see as our clients soon!) — and the outstanding gang at SomeOne who pulled out every stop, thought outside of every box and delivered such hard working outcomes.
But most of all, to the brilliant clients of SomeOne, who entrusted us with their futures. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
