Welcome
We love to make stuff. It’s all about better than the last, more fun than the first and wondering what’s next. We are EightyOne, but we’re younger than we sound.
Gift a Safe Night
For most New Zealanders, when we need an escape we simply jump online and book a getaway. But for some of us that isn’t an option. Every night in this country, over 160 women and children are too afraid to stay at home because of family violence. Find out how we helped Women’s Refuge develop a radical new approach to fundraising.
Child Poverty Monitor
Every child in Aotearoa New Zealand deserves to have the opportunity and support they need to live a good life. To make this a reality, big bold changes are needed. This included a big, bold refresh of the Child Poverty Monitor website and 2019 reporting collateral.
Have you seen this squirrel?
The launch of Fix & Fogg's Chocolate Hazelnut butter and Chocolate Almond butter created a bit of a stir in Wellington, home of the best nut butters. There was a lot of interest from one particular fan; a six foot tall, cheeky grey squirrel.
Rugby World Cup 2019
We kicked off the 2019 Rugby World Cup in style with the concept of immersing two cultures together for NZ Rugby’s hosting of their VIP guests in Japan.
David Reid in detail
The team at David Reid create beautifully crafted, one of a kind homes. So, it made sense for our team to design a campaign that reflected their meticulous attention to detail.
A power company you can love
Can you love a power company? With their service led, unique product offering and a ton of quirkiness, we suspect with Powershop, maybe you can.
Team Talk Coasters
Unfortunately, mental health is a growing issue among Kiwi men, and we know that problems don’t seem quite so big if we share them.
We’ve teamed up with Movember to create a series of Team Talk Coasters that will raise money to help fund programmes aimed at tackling issues concerning men’s mental health.
EightyOne Showreel
What's better than beautiful design? When it moves, that's what. Check out the highlights of our recent animation, motion graphics and videography here.
Awareness for Consumer
Consumer NZ identified a need to increase awareness around the diversity of their offering, and to speak to a younger demographic of discerning Kiwi consumers. What followed was digital-led campaign designed to surprise and engage with its audience.
Support Women's Sport
Coverage of women’s sport in New Zealand is no laughing matter. We want to increase the profile of our female athletes and champion greater media coverage. If we’re serious about making change, let’s do it on a scale never seen before, like gaining the naming rights to the Basin Reserve.
An act like this requires your support, so please help us increase visibility for our women in sport and make a donation today.
The Wellington Effect
We worked with WellingtonNZ (WREDA) to create a campaign centred around the thought that Wellington inspires and invigorates all those who visit, making you feel young again. It suggests that a break in the Capital may be able to reverse the aging process; something we call The Wellington Effect.
Kiwibank New Zealander of the Year
This year, we couldn’t have been prouder to have worked behind the scenes, helping Kiwibank honour two very special individuals who have selflessly given their time, vision and creativity to make a positive impact within their communities and the country as a whole.
TrumpFace
TrumpFace is a display typeface designed by the team at EightyOne to commemorate the trials and tribulations of the 45th President of the United States of America.
Terracotta Warriors
How do you capture the breath-taking awe of the greatest archeological find of the 20th century? We worked closely with Te Papa and WREDA on this world-class opportunity – bringing the story of China’s first emperor to life.
