WHAT WE ARE GOOD AT
GRAPHIC DESIGN & VISUAL CONCEPTS
Creative problem solving through, good honest design. We work on all aspects of graphic design, from logos to packaging graphics through to website design and instruction booklets. Our designers are skilled in all the latest software applications and can work with you to achieve your desired look.
CREATIVE ARTWORK & TYPESETTING
With a critical eye for detail, typography and colour along with brand guidelines, and develop creative material from concept, right through to production. We design a wide range of printed marketing materials, from brochure design to leaflets, posters, prospectuses, annual reviews and reports. We provide a complete design and artwork service, and work with other studios looking for white label digital solutions.
PHOTO MANIPULATION AND DIGITAL ILLUSTRATION
Digital photo editing, special effects, retouch and manipulation image services. The goal of photo manipulation is to make a realistic image that is very different from any existing photo. We provides digital photo montage services dealing with things such as people, objects, background changing and object transformation with professional quality.
BRANDING, IDENTITY AND LOGO DESIGN
We work with businesses across a wide range of sectors, either evolving their existing brand, or designing an entirely new logo to complement brand repositioning. We ensure that branding is applied consistently across all communications, from stationery to brochures to design guidelines, and of course through to social channels, web design and development.
DESIGN FOR PRINT
We recognise that printed communications are still a valid and effective part of the marketing mix, leveraging a tangible item in a targeted way to reach a specific audience segment can provide a level of sensory engagement that is simply unachievable via digital channels. Our creative portfolio includes annual reviews, brochures, marketing literature, signage and large format display.
EXHIBITION DISPLAYS
Attending an exhibition is a great way to show off your business. Effective use of the physical space is the key to making exhibition displays engaging, communicating your goals and getting across the right message to passersby. Whether you have a huge space to fill or just a compact display to spruce up, we understand how important it can be.
