The new name and identity for the East Cut reflects the vibrant community’s past and future.
Fast Company notes, “while other software giants are simplifying their branding, Mailchimp is keeping it quirky.”
Our creative identity prepares this joyful brand for a pioneering future while retaining its playful, unconventional disposition.
