New on 100 Archive: BOUNCE—more than just another design event

BOUNCE started the way most good things start: with a question. What do designers want their design community to look like?

In asking this question and in response to the answers, founder @danielle_townsend_pro has created an annual event, workshops, design challenges, a podcast, and a community. 

Head on over to 100archive.com/articles (link in stories and bio) to read more about BOUNCE.

Today’s the final day to submit your work for the 2025 Selection! 💯

Selected for #100archive2024, designed by Rachel Copley McQuillan and Stina Sandström @bureaubonanza, this project brings together typographic identity, animated film titles, and a specially produced newspaper to support Deirdre O’Mahony’s powerful sound and moving image artwork.

Drawing on the visual language of 1970s and 80s agricultural publishing, the design reinterprets familiar Farmers’ Journal and provincial newspaper aesthetics through a contemporary lens, connecting past communication traditions with today’s urgent environmental questions.

Produced for the Walls & Halls Tour and exhibition at The Douglas Hyde Gallery, the accompanying newspaper — whose cover also served as the tour poster — features farmer interviews, documentation of the Sustainment Experiment feasts, artist correspondence, and the project’s libretto, creating a meaningful bridge between artwork and rural audiences.

Typography referencing plough-line patterns and motion design reflecting the artwork’s polyvocal approach reinforce themes of ecological interconnectedness and shared responsibility. The identity unifies the project across gallery installations and community screenings in barns and halls across Ireland, supporting dialogue between food producers and consumers around sustainability and climate change.

Today’s the final day to submit your work for the 2025 Selection! 💯

Selected for #100archive2024, Bounce showcases how Irish design continues to create spaces where ideas and people connect.

The identity for this new conference for creative professionals by David Joyce, Barry Hone, Ciara Fitzgerald, Katy Finnegan and Diarmuid O’Connor at Language draws on the energy of a pinball machine — a playful metaphor for the sparks that fly when creative minds collide. Fast movement, bright lights and interconnected motion capture the spirit of the event, while the vertical wordmark and dynamic ball motif echo the mechanics of pinball itself, inviting participants to jump back in and play again. Animated elements and lively copy further amplify the sense of momentum and collaboration.

Today’s the final day to submit your work for the 2025 Selection! 💯

Selected for #100archive2024, Carambola’s vibrant rebrand by the team @piquant_media showcases how thoughtful Irish design can connect with entire school communities.

Designed by Conor Buckley, Hugh Heffernan, Conor Smyth, Victoria Brunetta and Kevin King, the project repositioned Carambola as Ireland’s go-to healthy school meals provider through a refreshed identity, website, and full brand activation.

A bold new logo featuring starfruit motifs, playful illustration for younger students, food-led photography for older audiences, and clear, professional communication for parents and schools created a brand that feels both fun and trusted. From menus and allergen information to events and social channels, the cohesive rollout strengthened Carambola’s presence nationwide.

Today’s the final day to submit your work for the 2025 Selection! 💯

Selected for #100archive2024, Caladh in Greystones, Co. Wicklow showcases a beautifully considered example of contemporary Irish design by Rachel Delap. @racheldelap 

Created for restaurateurs Brian Walsh and Paul Foley, the project encompassed naming, brand identity, signage, print, website design, and photography direction. The name Caladh — Irish for “landing place” or “harbour” — reflects both Walsh’s long journey to opening the restaurant and its coastal Greystones setting.

The resulting identity is calm, spacious and grounded, with a rectangular motif symbolising arrival and anchoring the brand visually. Printed menus and cards, expertly produced by Print Plus, and signage realised by Revert further embed the brand in the physical space.

Photographer Tetyana Maryshko’s imagery completes the visual language, capturing the craft of the kitchen and the restaurant’s connection to place.
