Our broad based experiences within most business sectors means our range of services are extensive, covering both digital solutions and conventional paper based marketing tools, with specialist focus in:

Graphic design, corporate identity & brand development You need a look, an image, a voice and a tone of communication, that’s what we do best!

Direct marketing, planning, production and fulfillment We have a proven, award winning record for producing distinctive, multi-functional, direct mail solutions. Whether a simple promotion or launch, a bounceback or referral scheme or just good old brand building we can develop something effective and memorable, physical or digital.

Advertising and marketing campaigns Once we have agreed a manageable marketing budget, we can draw against our experience to maximise as much exposure as possible. Whether it’s an ad campaign, some punchy PR or market research. Perhaps a slick competition, direct mail or even event/hospitality.

We’ve photographed people, places, objects, animals, sports and events, integrating them into our designs.
Whether it’s lifestyle imagery for a retail company’s clothing catalogue, supercar photography on location at an event or a small pieces of point-of-sale or product in the studio, we always love a good challenge

Whether it’s a standalone site or part of a bigger marketing programme, a suitable web site platform can be developed/produced, adding as many whistles and bells your brief and budget allows.

Our plain speaking approach will help you understand the process and what you are paying for at every stage.

Bringing a concept or look to life with illustration is a great way to add impact and uniqueness to your designs. Styles and executions are many and varied, traditional, contemporary or vector based, examples can be seen scattered amongst our various projects.

We have also been involved creating graphics for the clothing industry as prints and patterns for tees, sweats babywear etc. We have hundreds of examples of styles and executions which you can see here!  in our Little Books of Prints.

Using purely vector based graphics, we have developed some really effective infographic emailshots to support specific interesting stats/facts or offers, promotions. This technique has proved very successful in getting the facts across.

For over 20 years we have worked with retail companies working on all marketing channels to create cohesion and synergy across the business internally and externally.

Developing the brand through logo design, corporate identity, staff training, customer research and profiling. We’ve developed the shop’s look, POS, branded up clothing with labelling and tags. Styled their websites, produced bounceback offers and schemes and created localised and nationwide instore and remote competitions and events. We’ve drummed up some excellent PR and publicity.

It’s crucial  that once we’ve created a brand identity that it’s integrity is maintained, good training and printed guidlines should be produced as a point of reference.

From time to time we’ve enjoyed producing original pieces of art as commissions. It could be an original painting, a small piece of sculpture or our latest project producing large modular ‘portraits’ in the style and as an homage to Gilbert & George’s style.

We have run a work placement programme for schools and colleges for eight years and have found this a very rewarding part of the business. So much so that this will be extended to include Training Days, Workshops for people of all levels of ability and not just for schools and colleges.

If there is anything specific you are interested in extending your knowledge of or would like to know about any upcoming classes please email your details and a bit about yourself to [email protected]  If we get enough interest on any specific subjects we will happily create classes or workshops to suit.
