Congrats to our friends and clients Staffan Terje and Umberto Gibin on last night’s official opening in San Francisco of their latest culinary masterpiece Volta, where classic Gallic fare cozies up to classic Nordic. With a pedigree of Perbacco and Barbacco, and a name and identity by the chefs de branding at Duncan/Channon, this is guaranteed to be the hottest reservation in San Francisco. (Got room for two on Friday night?)

Voyaging past the reef
Ahead of their 75th anniversary, our friends at Outrigger Resorts asked us to help elevate the brand for a global stage.
Rakuten
Loyalty or discount program advertising often dwells in the downscale world of the coupon clipper — a turnoff to savvier online shoppers. Our strategy was to present Rakuten as every bit as premium as the brands it offered rebates on.
StubHub
Even the mild-mannered have something inside that drives them wild. And thanks to StubHub that wild thing is busting out all over.

One of the greatest teams ever assembled was just about to leave the city that supported them through thick and thin for 47 years. How do they say good-bye?

“They can’t take your ballot”
At a time of unprecedented voter suppression, the mission of Vote From Home 2020 is more essential than ever. Our new “Suppress This” campaign helps them get ballots into the hands of disenfranchised voters of color. You can help, too.
Udemy
DC developed a stylish back-to-school look for this growing learning platform. A new brand identity and comprehensive visual system celebrated the diversity of teachers and students and brought humanity to a previously transactional-feeling platform.
Stride Rite embraces the chaos
The world may change, but the joyful pandemonium of childhood remains a constant. Being no strangers to that joy ourselves, D/C was excited to be tapped to work on a brand refresh for Stride Rite. The new work encourages parents both to embrace the chaos and come prepared.
Marqeta
It’s a complex story and has to be delivered with authority, concision and style.
CA says Tahoe South’s just their type
Communication Arts has honored Duncan/Channon in this year’s prestigious Typography Annual for design of the new Tahoe South identity for the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority.
