Established in 1879, Alpha Bank is one of Greece’s oldest and most respected financial institutions. The bank has also played an important part in Greek society, particularly through its role in preserving Greek culture and heritage.
⠀
Pentagram’s @DomenicLippa and team were invited to create a new identity that would respect the bank’s history while reflecting its wider ambition to modernise the business.
⠀
The starting point was an ancient silver coin from Alpha Bank’s extensive numismatic collection called the Silver Stater of Aegina, which had originally inspired the bank’s logo in 1972.
⠀
Returning to the original coin, the team redrew the symbol, retaining the understated elegance of its central axis and preserving the subtle historical asymmetries of the silver stater. The symbol lies at the heart of the new identity, informing everything from the wordmark and custom typography to the iconography, signage and brand patterns.
⠀
The new Alpha Sans typeface takes its proportions from the symbol and has been designed in both Greek and Latin versions, and the enhanced colour palette centres around the existing Alpha Blue.
⠀
Rooted in Alpha Bank’s history, the new identity creates a distinctive and flexible visual language that can adapt to its different audiences and services, while supporting its ambitions for the future.

Ahead of its 30th anniversary, Firaxis asked Pentagram team @jody_hudsonpowell and @lukejpowell to create an updated brand that was fit for the modern gaming industry. Players have a phrase for Firaxis games: ‘one more turn’. Since 1996, the Maryland studio has made strategy games that are hard to put down.
Firaxis’ name is the fusion of “fiery” and “axis”. The brand idea takes this literally: Playing with Fire. The player is the axis, the centre point the studio’s energy revolves around. The games are the fire, handed to the player to wield.
The symbol is a four-pointed spark, a three-dimensional axis, sitting inside a swirl of fire and is paired with a bespoke wordmark that sits between ancient and alien. The logo is brought to life in the animated reveal, modelled in 3D then finished by hand.
The gestural simplicity of the logo is extended to a full visual system. A stand-out bright orange and distinctive duotone image. But the closest extension of the brand logo is a bespoke typographic system. Based around Neue Haas Grotesk, Firaxis FireSwirl is not a font of letters but of fire, a variable font with comprehensive OpenType features that is a vehicle for illustrative decoration that imbues text with brand personality.
The new identity launched on 1 May 2026, thirty years to the day after the studio was founded.Sid Meier describes a game as a series of interesting decisions. For thirty years, Firaxis has built worlds that revolve around the player. Now its identity does too.

We’re thrilled that three of Pentagram’s projects have been named in TIME’s Best Inventions of 2026, an annual list celebrating 300 extraordinary innovations that are changing people’s lives!
Caligra
Listed in the Productivity category, Caligra’s Workbench is a minimalist Linux-based operating system designed to remove unnecessary distractions. Working alongside the in-house team who developed Workbench OS, Pentagram‘s @jonmarshalll and team created the industrial design for Caligra’s new c100 Developer Terminal, a computer focused exclusively on helping experts to create.
KARRI
Designed by Jon Marshall and team, @Karri_io’s Messenger 2 was invented to replace smartphones for children aged 5 to 13. The compact voice-messaging and tracking device gives children the freedom to roam independently without the distractions and risks of screens.
Lightmatter
With hardware designed by Jon Marshall and visual identity, brand positioning and digital design by @njenworks, Lightmatter is pioneering optical networking technology that uses light rather than electrical signals to make data centres faster and more energy-efficient. Its Guide chips deliver unprecedented optical density while consuming just 3.5 watts of power, and the company recently joined @Nvidia’s NVLink Fusion ecosystem.

As a part of this year’s @l_d_f_official 2026, @domeniclippa was asked to create an animation piece for London’s most iconic big screen. Interrupting the usual broadcast of advertisements, at 7pm on 16 September, the 783.5m2 screen at Piccadilly Circus was lit up with a typographic celebration of London.
⠀
One of the world’s great cities, London can be beautiful, challenging, historic, modern, and all of those things at once. It continues to delight and surprise, and every time you turn a corner there’s something different right in front of you.
⠀
If you look a little closer, you’ll see that typography runs through the city like a graphic thread. For ‘London Life’, the team wanted to use type to capture four distinct personalities of London.
⠀
These were: Water, through the Thames, which divides and unites north and south; the unique historical character of the idiosyncratic Pearly Kings and Queens and their generous, community-minded spirit; The joyful abundance of greenery that lifts our hearts, from street trees to the city’s precious parks; And finally, the quirky and often quite bizarre street names that remain a source of endless fascination.
⠀
Domenic and his team chose to bring all of this to life through simple black-and-white animation. It’s not always easy on the eye, never neutral and certainly not straightforward to navigate. But then, that’s the London we all know and love.

Final days to catch Pentagram × Deus Ex Machina at @oshgallerylondon!
The exhibition celebrates our ongoing collaboration with @deusexmachina, bringing together new work by Pentagram’s @mrwilley, @AngusHyland and @piotrworks. The star of the show is an original 1965 Morris Mini Cooper S race car with custom livery by Matt Willey.
Willey and team also designed a limited-edition newspaper to accompany the exhibition, with free copies available to visitors. At its center is the exhibition poster, available as an art print from @kingandmcgaw. The newspaper also features an in-depth look at Willey and Piotr Woronkowicz’s recent collaboration with Deus Ex Machina and @mini on two one-off John Cooper Works cars.
Pentagram × Deus Ex Machina is on view at Osh Gallery, 46 Essex Road, London N1, through 29 October.

The @stlsymphony is a cornerstone of the St. Louis community and one of the nation’s most enduring orchestras. In 2025, the SLSO launched its 146th season with the reopening of its historic home, Powell Hall, following a major expansion designed by @snohetta. The transformation reflects the SLSO’s broader commitment to welcoming new audiences and making orchestral music more accessible to all.
To mark this new chapter, Eddie Opara, @njenworks, and teams collaborated with the SLSO on a brand strategy and visual identity that embodies the dynamic spirit, artistry and mission of the organization.
At the heart of the strategy is a simple idea: an orchestra is a shared experience that brings together performers, audiences, and the wider community in harmony for the one-of-a-kind experience of a live performance. This inspired the new brand line, “All Together Now.”
The identity translates this idea into a design framework that captures the movement, rhythm, and emotion of music. The visual language centers on a gestural ribbon that is constantly moving and changing to form elegant new shapes, from the SLSO monogram to illustrations of musical instruments. The expressive lines evoke conducting patterns and musical notation. Their fluidity also echoes the graceful curves in the architecture of Snøhetta’s expansion, creating a cohesive connection between the orchestra’s artistic and physical identity.
This powerful element is balanced by a new wordmark set in Frequency Serif, a custom typeface designed exclusively for the SLSO. The logotype can be paired with the monogram, stand on its own, or appear staggered in rhythmic arrangements that suggest the movement and cadence of music.
The system establishes a consistent visual voice across the SLSO’s wide-ranging programming and audience touchpoints, from seasonal campaigns and the SLSO website to signage throughout Powell Hall.

To mark the completion of the Thames Tideway Tunnel, the largest upgrade to London’s water network for more than 150 years, Pentagram Partner Marina Willer and team were commissioned to design a series of bronze plaques which double up as drain covers, while also signalling thirteen new riverside public spaces across the capital.
⠀
The unique artwork expresses both the transformational nature of the new tunnel and its relationship with the river. Each cover is made from two overlapping discs, with linear patterns creating an almost liquid blend. The moiré effect celebrates London as a melting pot of cultures, expressing the fluidity of the river as it flows through the city.
⠀
The typography also has a special relationship with the Thames. Originally created in 1899 for The Doves Press in Hammersmith, Doves Type was famously consigned to the river in 1917, before being rediscovered and revived almost a century later. Its use in the plaques creates another connection between the design and the river’s history.
⠀
The handcrafted nature of the plaques was an important part of the project, using traditional manufacturing processes to bring a distinctive character to each piece. Each plaque was individually cast by hand in sand, polished and finished by Chris and his team at Arch Bronze.
⠀
A special one-off design was also created for Abbey Mills Pumping Station in East London, known as the ‘Cathedral of Steam’, to mirror its incredibly ornate Victorian interior.
⠀
Now installed at new public spaces along the Thames, Marina and team’s bronze plaques act as lasting markers of an extraordinary civic achievement, one that’s both hidden beneath the city and deeply embedded in its future.

Pentagram Partner @harrywpearce presents ‘All Our Blood’, a new large-scale installation at the inaugural Kyoto YouMe Triennale.
⠀
An eleven minute film that follows one drop of Harry’s blood falling into water, the sequence is accompanied by twenty-one minutes of music created by Peter Gabriel.
⠀
It’s extraordinary how blood can emulate an atomic cloud. The former, the essence of life, the latter the possibility of its annihilation.
⠀
The piece was filmed by Richard Foster with whom Harry has collaborated with for over forty years.
⠀
The film has been running for the last ten days in the landmark Jushin Kaikan building – a Buddhist centre from the 1930s, in Kyoto’s Shimogyo-ku district.
⠀
Harry is also one of the Founding Partners of the @youme_kyototriennale, helping to shape the event from its earliest stages, including the development of its manifesto and visual identity.
⠀
“This is my blood. Blood is vital to us all. What is done to one, in the end is done to all. We are all infinitely interconnected”
Harry Pearce
⠀
“Every fruit has its juice. We have blood – and that blood never stops flowing. And in that blood lies our past, our present and the doorway to our future”
Peter Gabriel
⠀
Harry would like to thank @isao.kitaba, @anzaih, @semper_andrea at @libertylondon and @alessandrobiamonti for inviting him to show the film, as well as the support of Kyoto’s Agency for Cultural Affairs, Kyoto Prefecture, Kyoto City.
⠀
Special thanks to Peter Gabriel and Richard Foster for all they brought to the project.
⠀
Also a thank you to @yurisuzuklondon for all the help and the ‘sound’ advice.
