Signifying a new promise to customers

The rebrand offered a unique and timely opportunity to transform the business in their audience’s hearts and minds. The result is a confident, unified brand that reflects the organisation’s evolution, ambitions and dynamism.

A fresh optimism

We successfully proposed a new name, ‘eir’, which reflects their essential contribution to Irish life while conveying a sense of lightness and new optimism – a feeling reinforced by a new logo that captures the properties of air. To communicate this newfound energy, we created a teaser campaign, ‘Live life on eir’, an uplifting invitation to their customers – and the nation.

Bringing the story to life in film

We also partnered to create a film to re-establish eir’s place in the life of Ireland. The five-day shoot, with an intergenerational crew of 30 and turnaround of only three weeks, set in the cityscapes of Dublin and the countryside of County Wicklow, expressed the spirit of the brand story ‘Essential to Ireland. Essential to life’.

The sense that eir is woven into the fabric of the nation and the lives of its people is conveyed through rural images (traditional Irish music, a farmers’ market) and urban shots of industry and business.

The bold colour palette conveys energy and confidence.
