It's kinda all over the place, innit? But I guess that's the point, more or less.

They do have some really strong work, except for that Lisa/London 2012 logo.

the work is nice, the site doesn't do it for me. it may be funner to interact with on an ipad, but otherwise its muddled to be ironic or its just plain clumsy. good work tho.

Interesting blog post they wrote about the site. Not sure if they're really saying anything worthwhile, but the way they talk about it probably adds an extra 0 or two to the price tag.

I can never forgive them for the NYC logo, but that's a nice redesign. I really like how the Vimeo player loads in place and that the content is mixed and in an irregular layout that repositions as you resize your browser window. Great work.

I personally don't know of said Wolf Folins, so I clicked on what I presumed could be something to represent the Info/Profile/Company/About page. It was however labeled "Inside WO" and I first misread it as "Inside WC"... After clicking through I was promptly greeted with some very colourful office snaps, snippets of a twitter feed and this statement:
"150 people.
21 Languages.
Endless curiosity.
Ambitious for clients.
Optimistic for the world."As far as I could ascertain they are a global... translation agency? Offering a service covering 21 language with a staff of 150 people. And they are seemly a little brown nosed - what with all that client bum licking ambition they have.
- 1) it's Wolff Olins, not Wolf Folins
2) Read. They're a branding agency.monospaced - 3) Buy a sense of humour for Mono.Amicus
- oh, I'm sorry Amicus, was orpkoobcam2 being funny and/or sarcastic?monospaced
- 1) it's Wolff Olins, not Wolf Folins

^ so it so should be:
"Wolff Olins (so people know they can't spell wolf correctly).
Branding Agency.
150 people.
21 Languages."What they currently have sounds like something written on an ipad or Mac Air in a upmarket branch of Starbucks whilst sipping an ice cold frappuccino and being distracted by too many RSS feeds and iphone notifications.
I really can't stand how all these big messy global branding / Ad agencies can't simply talk straight about themselves. They just waffle. It's all fluff. It's all overly dressed up and shoved in your face. It just makes me really suspicious that they're trying to hide their potentially awful work(I don't I couldn't be bothered to fight my way through all the fluff to look at their work) behind all that dribble.
If they were a person they'd be one of those yuppie types who goes to an expensive gym too much and aggressively barges past you in the queue at Whole Foods.
- hahaha, they hardly talk about themselves at all... haters gonna hatemonospaced
- anyway, they have some of the best work out theremonospaced
