THE BEES’ KNEES
The waggle Dance. It’s a thing. Karen Gallagher’s business (KG Comms) was changing and she wanted a new name and identity to reflect the work of her and her team.
Names are funny things. You know the right one when you see it (or hear it as the case may be). But it’s finding the right one isn’t it. We love naming projects. When we hit on the right name for a client it’s like arriving at the top of a mountain after an arduous and difficult climb. We could put in a cheesy photo library shot of a man in a suit tackling a summit, or we could just show you how we visualised the name we came up with — The Bees’ Knees.
Bees perform a ‘waggle dance’ to tell other bees how far, and in which direction, other bees should go to find pollen sources. Bees use the angles of the hexagonal honeycomb — as well as the angle the sun happens to be at in the sky — as the map upon which they perform their dance. Bees = proper enormously clever. This interrelationship between bees and their hive is The Bees’ Knees metaphor for organisational success.

Working with Chops for Tea is amazing and very enjoyable. Going through a complete re-brand is quite daunting and having a team that puts so much thought and rigour of process into every branding, design and copy solution gives you immense confidence.
My favourite part of working with Chops id they go through the pros and cons of every single choice before it gets to you. And of course, they are so, so talented. I love our new brand identity.
