March’s 2025 Highlights

Peter Burch
March Branding Team 2025
2025 was a big year for March – we celebrated our 10th birthday, and it also marked a turning point: doubling down on branding and design for businesses in the interiors and build space.

We’ve worked with a number of leading interior designers, furniture makers and property developers this year, with more exciting projects to come in 2026 – and the lovely feedback we’ve received has been incredibly rewarding.

Here are some of our highlights from the last year:

1. Celebrating 10 years

To celebrate a decade of hard work and success, the team got together in April for drinks and dinner, followed by a painting workshop led by the brilliant artist Irina Taneva.

Co-founders and directors Peter Burch and Adam Maidment set up March in 2015, and over the last decade the team has built approximately 90 new websites and 50 brand identities, winning more than 20 awards along the way.

We’ve worked with some of the most exciting and ambitious businesses on the planet – including Self Space, Business Design Centre, HotelHub and Beata Heuman.

2. Crafting a new visual identity and portfolio site for award-winning interior design studio Henri Fitzwilliam Lay

One of our most rewarding projects from the last year was a new brand identity and website for Henri Fitzwilliam-Lay, the multi award-winning interior design studio and stalwart of the House & Garden Top 100.

The new site uses WordPress with Elementor to offer both visual impact and ease of use, while the new brand identity combines mid-century elements with a modernist typeface, grounded in a warm colour palette of rich brown and off-white.

Press manager Leon Flint commented, “March Branding were brilliant. They helped us craft an attractive, engaging website with a brand identity that balances sophistication and elegance while maintaining a fresh, contemporary feel. Every step was clearly explained and delivered on time. The whole process felt effortless. We’d absolutely recommend them.”

3. Winning 2 awards at the KBBAs

In April, we were honoured to be recognised with two awards at the Kingston Borough Business Awards, an annual event celebrating local businesses and organisations.

4. Creating a new website and visual identity for Heanly Harris

As we continued to consolidate our specialist branding and digital services for interior designers, it was a pleasure to create a new brand identity and website for leading studio Heanly Harris.

Founders Abigail Heanly and Clair Harris wanted a new brand that felt authentic and personal to them and a website that conveyed their expertise, vision, and over 20 years’ worth of experience.

Following a brand discovery workshop, we developed an elegant new brand identity based on a particular object of some personal meaning to the founders. The new website shows off the studio’s impressive portfolio, and can be easily updated by the in-house team. We also created a six-month content plan to support the studio’s marketing and social media strategy.

5. Delivering a witty and effective sustainability campaign for Business Design Centre

Early in the year, we collaborated with our long-term client Business Design Centre on a new campaign to highlight the venue’s progress in reducing its carbon footprint.

BDC Sustainability Campaign

Described by marketing expert Chloe Thomas as “Probably the best sustainability campaign I’ve seen”, a series of posters are situated around the venue to demonstrate BDC’s reduced footprint-per-square-metre in familiar, everyday equivalents: a rare steak, 35 lattes or 115 cokes.

Simple and humorous, the campaign encourages visitors to think about their own consumption in a non-judgemental way, while highlighting the strides taken by BDC to improve their eco-credentials.

6. Growing the team

Our busiest year to date meant we had the chance to work with a number of talented new team members on several exciting projects.

7. Building a stylish new ecommerce site for photographer Grace Hinchen

It was a pleasure to work with New York-based photographer Grace Hinchen on a new e-commerce website.

Built on Shopify, the site draws inspiration from the distinctive style and retro colour palette of Grace’s beach photographs, many of which are shot on film in locations such as Byron Bay, Florida and the Hamptons. Careful product indexing makes it easy for customers to search her prints according to subject matter and location, while custom e-commerce solutions let them choose between sizes and framing options.

Grace said, “Thank you for your work on our e-commerce photography website. It’s been a very positive experience, and we are extremely pleased with the new Shopify site’s functionality, design, and product indexing – we have received a great response already.”

8. Designing a new brand and website for leading interior design studio London Design Group

We delivered a new website and branding for leading studio London Design Group. Built on WordPress with Elementor, the new site shows off the studio’s projects for both private clients and developers, while a refreshed logomark and brand identity draws inspiration from their presence in the heart of the capital.

Director Andrea Ching said, “We are absolutely thrilled with our new website! The team really understood our vision and brought it to life with elegance and style. The logo especially is spot on – chic, timeless and a perfect reflection of our brand. A fantastic experience from start to finish.”
