OFFSITE is the citywide fringe festival running in lead up to the main event of Offset. It is a jam-packed week of Workshops, Masterclasses, Gallery shows, Installations, Outdoor Lunchtime Talks, Panel Discussions, Book Launches, Exhibitions, Live Music Performances, Delegate Party and much more. The OFFSITE fringe festival ran to four editions (2016-2019), and is the perfect opportunity for creatives to thrive: to learn from each other, to share their ideas, to inspire and be inspired by their peers.

DCC – Winter Lights
We were tasked with the responsibility for the naming, branding and comms strategy for Winter Lights brand around what has to become an annual Christmas event in the city. “Winter Lights” was the brand McCann developed for this illuminating event. With craft and that handmade feel being such an intrinsic component of Christmas, we thought it apt to bring a flavour of this to the design and typography in the Winter Lights logo.
Absolut – VIS1ONS
We challenged 10 leading Irish and international graphic artists to come together for a week and create their design in an open workshop, using an eye catching 8ft tall replica of the iconic ABSOLUT bottle as their canvas.
The 10 artists participating in ABSOLUT VIS10NS represent a variety of creative disciplines from across the globe from painting, fashion and photography to illustration and typography.
