Cocogun has collaborated with the peak body fighting hereditary cancer on a major rebranding project.
Formerly known as Pink Hope, the organisation has been renamed Inherited Cancers Australia.
Thousands of Australians carry an inherited risk, through known gene mutations, or have a significant family history that increases their risk of cancer.
Inherited Cancers Australia provides evidence-based information to help break the cycle of cancer in families and encourage conversations that save lives. The organisation’s core belief is that knowledge is power, and its vision is that every Australian is informed and supported to manage their risk of hereditary cancer.
This has come to life in the new branding, website and a national out-of-home campaign, all featuring powerful photography of members of the high-risk community by portrait photographer Nic Walker.
”We believe that knowledge is power. It’s important that the way our brand shows up in the world reflects the intelligence, autonomy and empathy running through our DNA, and that of the community we work with," Inherited Cancers Australia CEO Sarah Powell said.
"Cocogun’s strategic and creative approach, and Nic’s photography, have perfectly captured this balance.”
Inherited Cancers Australia promotes open discussion around family health history in Australia and advocates for those at risk of cancer and their families, with the aim of earlier diagnoses, risk reduction, and better treatment options.
Cocogun business director + copywriter Kirsty Reynolds said the agency believes creativity is the most powerful force in the world
"And with the Inherited Cancers Australia team - we're using it to help them achieve their mission of breaking the cycle of inherited cancer in Australian families. It has been an honour working with a team so knowledgeable and passionate about the generational impact of inherited cancer risk," she said.
Cocogun design director Chris Clausen said Inherited Cancers Australia's curved lines and organic colours draws inspiration from nature, representing the ongoing journey people who live with an inherited cancer risk face throughout their lives.
"The colour palette was inspired by the community, who wanted colours more representative of the diversity of its members. The bright yellow combined with photography by Nic Walker contrasts vulnerability and strength within the community, to help ‘break the cycle’.”
The new branding and out of home campaign is live now.
