DropStat is a service dedicated to optimizing nurse staffing at hospitals. To prepare for launch and begin investment rounds, they required a cohesive brand that would provide visual consistency and replicability as a brand scales. Nurses work in highly stressful and chaotic environments so the brand needed to be intuitively designed, simple, and visually pleasing.

Under the creative direction of Acumen LA, BLNKT created a scalable brand, which was rolled out across various collateral, including the core focus and canvas for the brand — the app interface.

Recognized in DesignRush’s Best Design list for healthcare.

Malice Stencil is a calligraphic stencil font in two styles designed by Phoenix-based type designer Scott Biersack, in collaboration with True Grit Texture Supply.

We worked with True Grit Texture Supply, offering production assistance to bring the textured font to life by developing a custom process for distressing each character individually using a combination of analog print samples and live-trace presets.

We then pressure tested the font through a range of creative outputs that capture the font’s dark and gritty aesthetic, while showcasing it’s key features, including rough and clean versions, ligatures, emoji replacement commands, multiple languages, and more.

Yeah Girl is a global media platform celebrating the intersection of women’s skateboarding and creativity. It began as an exhibition, created and curated by Sarah Huston, featuring photos of female skateboarders shot by female photographers around the world.

Following the hugely successful 2016 Australian exhibition, Yeah Girl headed to Copenhagen in July 2017 with support from Girls Are Awesome and Monster Energy. In partnership with Vans, the 2018 exhibition was held at The Seventh Letter in Los Angeles. The event was documented by Vice as part of their 6 episode series, “Boardly”. In 2019, Yeah Girl returned to Australia for the “Homecoming” show at HOTA on the Gold Coast.

In order to continue Yeah Girl’s mission of spotlighting women in skateboarding, BLNKT designed a brand new clean and minimal site that showcases editorial content. Offering a platform for new and established voices within the community, from industry level to grassroots, Yeah Girl became a go-to source for women’s skate news, stories, and events.

We later undertook a complete rebrand of Yeah Girl, redefining the brand aesthetic, and capturing a sense of movement and fun, while maintaining the refined style that Yeah Girl is known for.

Since their inaugural Gold Coast skateboarding competition in 2016, we have worked with BOWLZILLA to design their event poster each year, which is then rolled out across various digital and real-world applications including, social media, banners, t-shirts and video.

We also work with BOWLZILLA and Yeah Girl, a women’s skate media platform, to produce art events and female-led parties, supporting them in their push for equality within the skateboarding industry.

BLNKT provided a full athlete package for professional tennis player, Ena Shibahara, including a photo shoot, website and athlete bio deck.

We hit the courts with Ena to capture her caring, ambitious, focused, and at times silly personality. The images were used throughout the website and bio deck which aim to promote her as she works toward her goal of becoming the number one professional tennis player in the world in both singles and doubles.

In 2020, adidas Originals and Girls Are Awesome, a purpose-driven brand and media platform, teamed up to shift the spotlight in the art world by elevating five LA creators. The project was part of a wider global collaboration pivoting on a top to toe product range and a global campaign, all with the goal of starting a conversation around representation, showcasing role models, and taking first steps towards encouraging societal change.

BLNKT provided consultation services for media and event production, and also produced the campaign book. The aim was to create a book that could be used daily and not forgotten on the bookshelf. The result was a double-ended zine and notebook combo, featuring artist profiles at one end, and lined and gradient filled notebook pages at the other.

Girls With Game is on a mission to challenge the inequality that exists in gaming and esports by delivering inspiration and support to women gamers from all walks of life. They believe that women need more ways to communicate and share their passion for video games — from the ones they play on their phones to the ones that professional esports gamers play in sold out stadiums around the world.

BLNKT designed a brand identity that draws on signifiers in gaming while still remaining industry-neutral. At its core the brand mark symbolizes strength, passion and community — values that will hold true as Girls With Game grows.

They began as fun garden signs to keep the crew safe while skating curbs and now they are postcards that you can send to the geriatric skater in your life.
