Kicking Off 2025 with a Winning Streak at Kingdom & Sparrow
We’re beyond excited to start 2025 with a bang, celebrating our biggest ever success at the World Branding Design Society Awards (WBDS)! As Kingdom & Sparrow enters its twelfth year, our talented team has brought home an incredible 20 awards across a variety of categories for the brand design projects we completed last year.
The WBDS Awards are industry renowned for their inclusivity, fairness, and independence, receiving thousands of entries from design studios and agencies worldwide. Their commitment to celebrating merit ensures that excellence in design takes centre stage, regardless of an agency’s size or location – making these accolades even more meaningful to us at our studio here in Falmouth, Cornwall.
For 2024-25, we’re thrilled to have received:
- 2 GOLD Awards: One for our Brand Redesign of Peacock Cider and the other for our Packaging Design: Product Extension for Again by Chocolarder.
- 9 SILVER Awards: Spanning seven projects, these awards recognised everything from Typography to Packaging Design.
- 6 BRONZE Awards: Including three for our illustration work – an area we hold close to our hearts as we pride ourselves as an agency for our illustrative originality and artistry.
- 3 COMMENDED Recognitions: Notably, we were commended for our Social Impact Project with local Community Benefit Society Soul Farm, a meaningful initiative that reflects our commitment as a B Corp to creating purposeful work.
Winning 20 awards across such a wide range of projects and categories in a globally recognised competition is a monumental achievement for our team. It’s a reflection of our creativity, dedication, and the passion we bring to every brief.
Here’s to continuing to push boundaries, championing bold ideas, and crafting impactful designs as we head into another exciting year at Kingdom & Sparrow.
Thank you to our amazing team, clients, and collaborators for being part of this journey. We can’t wait to make 2025 our most creative year yet!
