“We were delighted to have an opportunity to partner with LSAD and work with local talent to design and create our Troy Studios Brand identity for the studios. It was through discussions with James Greenslade and Eamon Spelman of LSAD that the idea was developed to work with their design students. We are grateful to local design company Piquant Media, who came on board to project manage this for us and it is very fitting as Piquant are design past pupils of LSAD itself too”.

Piquant Media worked closely with Ní Raghallaigh to develop an identity design brief for Troy Studios and then held workshops with final year Visual Communications students from LSAD. Students Tara Sheehan, Kevin McInerney and Aislinn McGrath presented the chosen concept which was realised and rolled out by Piquant.

Commenting on the collaboration between Troy, LSAD and Piquant Media, Ní Raghallaigh says: “This was the perfect solution. A merging of the imagination and talent of the graduate class with the experience and professionalism of Piquant has resulted in an identity for Troy that is fresh and vibrant.”
