Habbot-Scene

Habbot is an Australian footware brand, designed in Melbourne and made in Le Marche, Italy. A proudly independent business with a strong following, they wanted help capturing the story behind the Habbot brand and telling it in a way that was both authentic and meaningful.

“Working with Richie enabled us to establish much needed clarification around our brand message and therefore a significant turning point in our overall communication strategy.  His approach from the very beginning felt incredibly thorough and considered.  He left no stone unturned during the research stage and was very generous with his time and patient with his explanations.  After several attempts with others over the years, we were thrilled to finally have a very practical and easy-to-use set of guidelines that we refer back to time and time again.”

Hot Black has created award-winning workspace and interior design projects for the likes of Uber, MYOB and Google. Seven years in, they wanted to redefine the brand and take the business to the next level. I led the strategy side of the project, from research and workshop facilitation, to identity development, messaging and brand experience design.

“Richie was instrumental to our rebrand - understanding where our story started and unpacking the essence of how we are perceived in the market, as well as our aspirations of where we want to be. Through his personal approach and creativity, we established a positioning and identity which we are proud of and truly feel connected to.”
