Case Study: Derbyshire’s Heartwood Community Forest builds a distinctive brand and website with Crush

Derbyshire’s Heartwood Community Forest delivers major projects and a distinctive brand with Crush

Derbyshire's Heartwood Community Forest, a project supporting rural communities by planting trees, approached CRUSH. They had a strong record of impact but needed a brand and website platform to properly tell their unique story, demonstrate their expertise to landowners, and overcome perceptions that their scheme was too good to be true.

CRUSH developed a comprehensive brand strategy and visual identity, brought to life through a system of bespoke illustrations that animate on a new responsive website. This solution amplified the forest's work, provided a practical platform for engagement, and created a distinctive brand the client is proud of. The new identity is consistently applied across all materials, from social media to print collateral.
