Building an iPhone app that helps city-dwellers get around.
The Fifth Wheel is a start-up bike shop in Brooklyn, NY. They approached Fuze with a concept for an iphone application that allows customers to locate, reserve and pay for bike rentals via their mobile phones. Before we began planning the app, we created a full brand identity package including logo, flyers, subway ads, digital ads and apparel.

The challenge
Branding a startup on a strict deadline is equal parts fun and challenging. The Fuze team hit the ground running with a series a fast-paced brainstorming sessions that resulted in an overarching vision for creative assets and app roll-out.

Because everyone loves a free t-shirt.

We designed a collection of t-shirts printed with badge icons from The Fifth Wheel’s brand asset collection. The initial batch of shirts was given out to the first 100 customers to rent bikes.
