Bareface sails away with it in 2016
Birmingham-based advertising agency Bareface have finished 2016 on the crest of a wave, having secured a hat-trick of new clients and winning several awards for their work.
Despite being about as far from the sea as you can get, they impressed UKSA (United Kingdom Sailing Academy) so much that they handed them their creative and digital briefs. “Bareface really understood the exciting challenges we face. Their insight, strategy and creative plan impressed us and leaves us confident of achieving our goals in 2017”, said Ben Willows, Chief Executive of UKSA.
Alongside this, the agency has had its hands full promoting The Whisky Lounge’s Birmingham Festival, which launched in the city in November, as well as starting work on delivering another successful Christmas fundraising campaign for the charity St Mary’s Hospice, where they are aiming to beat the high bar they set last year.
“Having worked in larger agencies, it is great to be back in a company that is growing quickly and has a real underdog spirit, plenty of work on and some really exciting opportunities”, said Louis Thompson, the new Head of Digital. “To win these new accounts and projects has been hard but rewarding”, he went on to say. Alongside Louis, Lead Designer Adrian Iliescu and Designers Christina Smith and Alex Heron are new faces joining the Creative team.

To round the year off, the agency was recognised for its hard work being awarded a prestigious Silver in the W3 Awards in New York, and two Cream Awards for the ‘Myriad’ project they delivered for Boss Design. “2016 has been a momentous year. We have grown significantly, hired some incredible talent and supported two rewarding events in the city with the Fusion Technology Meetup and The Brummies”, says Simon Morris, Managing Director. “Most importantly, we’ve produced some fantastic work for our clients. 2017 looks equally exciting with new client wins to announce early in the new year!”

A meeting of minds across an expanse of diverse disciplines.
A collision of art and science.
Advertising agencies are the original ‘disruptors’. Using bold and brilliant ideas to shift perceptions and create economies where previously there were none. So, what defines Bareface? What defines a modern advertising agency?
Today, technology binds together everything we do but everything we do, regardless of output, begins with advertising sensibility at its core. The power of the idea. The advertising landscape is increasingly complex and ever-changing. More customer touchpoints than ever before, from the traditional to the emerging, and that expansion shows no sign of letting up.
Bareface strategically blends these channels to connect people to products and services, achieving the brand clarity, consistency and authenticity that turns consumers into customers. Our clients’ performance is our only metric.
Bareface. The Modern Advertising Agency.
