Mi Li,Chief Marketing Officer at Atome,said: "We started this project by asking ourselves what we wanted our brand to truly represent for our growing number of Gen Z and millennial users and retail partners. What followed was an intense months-long project working with &Larry's talented team to distill our brand essenceof 'creating smarter access to your aspirations'. Atome's new brand identity captures this perfectly. Our new tagline,'Time to Own It',also plays on the core concept of time; in how Atome helps people to pay and afford products and services over time. At a deeper level,it's also an immediate call to action for consumers to own their deepest passions and aspirations."

Larry Peh,founder of &Larry and winner of the prestigious President's Design Award in 2014,said: "Working with a truly innovative technology company like Atome is always exciting. Not only is the Atome team building a phenomenal service that empowers both users and retail partners,but they also care deeply about the brand. From a creative standpoint,this was a challenging but fulfilling project in which we helped to clarify the three pillars of 'aspirations,access,and advice' and encapsulate it visually in a modern,unique and refreshing way. We're confident this new brand identity will help Atome gain recognition as a leading retail and lifestyle brand both in Singapore and across Asia Pacific. We are incredibly humbled to have contributed to this journey."
