Sourced By Oxfam

A bold sub-brand to distinguish Oxfam’s range of ethically sourced new products from donated goods. Inspired by humanitarian stencil marks and hand-crafted materials, the identity combined authenticity with impact across product labels and packaging, in-store environments, and POS.

The 'Sourced By Oxfam' Mark
Incorporating the existing Oxfam logo into a new mark that will represent the range of new products on packaging, advertising and shop furniture. Available in two formats for visibility in different types of spaces. We used stencil features and distressed the mark in reference to the Oxfam's humanitarian work around the world where Oxfam's logo is stencilled on aid crates and water tanks.

We developed a set of colours and textures for use across physical and online shop environments. We chose a natural and strip-back aesthetic to represent the brand in different contexts – craft paper in print and OSB wood for showcasing the products in Oxfam shops.
