Once upon a time, a boy met a girl to create a subtly androgynous look. The boy is called Al, who likes tailoring with a masculine edge, the other’s Alicia, who fancies all things flirty and feminine. They’re actually the same person, the schizophrenic mind of a local fashion designer, who approached ohplay to produce a brand identity and online presence for her label: AL&ALICIA.
The year 2009 saw the undeniable expansion of the Royalefam empire, we promptly jumped at the chance to produce a business card for Mark Ong (SBTG) that reflects the opulence of his brand. With his U.S based target audience in mind, we proposed the idea of having his cards in the form of US$1000 bills. The response has been tremendous and the Royalefam team, we’ve been told, have since poured bags full out of their hotel suite while on tour for effect.
We were asked to create an brand identity and website for Arts Business Asia – a company that connects the art world to the corporations for collaborative art projects.

Wong Kar Wai’s favourite movie still photographer Wing Shya set up a new production company called LALA STUDIO in Hong Kong and they approached us a logotype and visual identity systems for them. The brief was to be bold and striking. They loved the spot yellow and the cost effective CD case was an instant hit! It’s perforated and could be detached to distribute in 1’s, 2’s or 3’s.
Logo design for Bedrock Bar & Grill, restauranter Keith Low’s new dining project located in the heart of the city. As Keith wanted a quirky installation indoors, we came up with the idea of installing some 30 custom painted cows props in the restaurant!
