referencing the verbal side of the company, with copy lines such as ‘ice-cream but naughtier’ and ‘never vanilla’, johnson banks have incorporated the letters of ‘mr cooper’ into a magenta lipstick mark. with this identity, stationary and products have been kissed with the logo which if observed closely, has the word ‘ice-cream’ subtly blended into it.
