Lately

Meet Lately, the latest tech & business podcast from The Globe and Mail. The weekly 30-minute episodes tackle big heady topics like: the fake online review economy, technofeudalism, posting your layoff on TikTok, and more.

We established a modern and buzzy identity, pairing an open geometric sans-forward workmark with a reduced, pop-art colour palette and brought in Rose Wong to help us develop a custom illustration for the podcast cover.

Studio Wyse’s designs break through the clutter of the media landscape. The team’s branding for The Globe’s Lately is punchy, bold and fun — it matches the voice of the show and pops on a user’s scroll of favourite podcasts.

Toronto Met University Website

Toronto Metropolitan University magazine has a new website! It keeps alumni informed and engaged while sharing stories about the impact the university and its alumni have locally, nationally and globally. We were tasked with designing a site that's bold, contemporary and compelling, while reflecting the university as relevant, diverse and courageous. We kept the overall design clean and organized, and added fun touches of colour and interactivity to engage users.

Creative Destruction Lab, Year-In-Review 21/22

For this year’s CDL YIR, we wanted to both build upon last year’s microsite and present the content in a more dynamic and engaging way. We introduced scripted animations and micro-interactions to the home page, restructured some of the layouts to better support the content, incorporated bold typographic gestures across the pages, and improved the mobile user experience.

Creative Destruction Lab, Year-In-Review 20/21

CDL’s Year-In-Review is normally presented in the form of a gorgeous book that’s given out at their annual flagship event, Super Session. With the gathering moved to a virtual format, CDL challenged us to present 2021’s YIR in the form of a website without sacrificing the feeling of it being something special. We designed a site that’s bold and innovative - like CDL - and summarizes their extensive work while recognizing members of their community of academics, scientists, entrepreneurs and students.
