I really like their typographic work. It has that graphic design thing but pushes the envelope a bit. They obviously know their stuff, but their designs aren't conservative. I also really like the way many of them are black and white, no mid-tones, and still work really well. It's powerful stuff. I hope over the next year (or 2 if i do the BA course 3rd year) to be able to try many typographic "experiments", like limited colour palletes, black and white or a bit of print work. I hope this will give me more ideas to "cash in" later when I leave, however for the puposes of professional studies, I have no idea if they make money and are succesful. I will have to find out!
