First of all, we designed a logo and soon our website design was completed. It includes gorgeous photography and an online shop. Making use of a contemporary font that has a fantasy feel to it. The dot in the lettering and the subtle flame on the “I” creating a primitive fire torch. It added to the adventure aspect of this logo which it really needed. Using these fantastic images on the home page really shows them off well.

Carry the logo design and branding through to a responsive website in addition making it look great on an iPhone and iPad too. Use vintage colours with a look that flows seamlessly into another contemporary hence modern day look. The website should be something special but especially relevant it should say regal yet stylish.
Having designed the strong elegant logo and brand ourselves, being tasked with designing the responsive website was ideal. Working with a good brand makes designing the look of the website a pleasure. Her gorgeous retro colours and beautiful logo design look stunning on the website. The use of the classic zig zag scissor pattern, wideley associated with textiles and fabrics is a delightful addition. Close-up images of linen, lace and vintage jewellery make the site look sublime as much as high-end.
We have many logo design examples featured on our website in the portfolio section. Have a look at the sort of design quality you can expect. We utilised the ‘fleur de lis’ incorporating it into the crown logo icon thus enhancing its link to textile design. Using the crown as a focal point for the logo design and branding helped the design as a whole.
Added to that the Regal and Linen in gold looks so fine. In addition a typeface that seems like it belongs next to the crown, in all its splendour. This logo design almost made the branding and stationery design rather easy to follow with the luxurious and splendid look.
The envelope is of course theatrically sealed with scarlet wax just like those magical vintage days of no internet, smartphones and computers. As a result the overall look is probably as special as it is regal since they deal with fine linen and lace.

They specialise in the newest, innovative heating solutions for your home or business and sustainable renewable energy products such as Biomass boilers and Air-Source heating. They also supply, fit and service oil, gas and LPG boilers.
The Brief – They wanted to have a more modern feel and most of all, create a more professional upmarket first impression. A logo that is bold and would be clear on clothing and badges due to the fact that they wear uniforms and company shirts. All leaflet design needs to have the new logo and branding incorporated. A clean bold font in addition to crisp clean lines.
First of all a smart logo in navy blue on crisp white, modern clean and professional, this is the direction we went with the branding. With a line running round the stationery as a contemporary way to incorporate ‘pipe work’ feel. Every other design element uses the logo as an anchor, so we made sure it was right for the company. A corporate look, yet still a bit trendy, as a result they have had their diaries fully booked for months in advance.

Power-IT – Here we have a business based near Milton Keynes that repairs Apple Mac power supply units across the UK. For years they had neglected their company image. They didn’t see it as an important part of running their business. Realising the importance of a good logo and branding, and especially relevant a fully functional website, they made the call. They approached us to create a logo. Further they needed help to enhance their business brand but most noteworthy, a responsive web design.
The Brief – Using an electrical theme with a computerised feel for the branding across the board. While making sure that the technical side and the power elements were visual. Blue grey and white colour range was the preferred choice for all designs, while keeping in mind that bright colours are not out of the question as an accent.
The logo represents the foil on a circuit board and the additional design to enhance the ‘power’ elements. The blue colours needed a bit of a lift therefore we gave it a touch of deep yellow since it was an ideal contrasting hue. Masculine dusty blues seem to be especially successful for this computer company yet a bright yellow also looked great in their logo.
Their corporate stationery has a contemporary graphic slant that looks stunning while adding interest. It works extremely well across all the designs and most noteworthy the website look is greatly enhanced. While their customers were delighted at how the look has improved, many of them had no problem complimenting him on the results.
In conclusion, we have created corporate stationery, a responsive web site, adverts and leaflets for Power-IT. They had a laugh at how dated their company image was before. Their web site has a graphic slant that serves to bring together the web site and corporate identity as a cohesive and pleasing feel. It is visually pleasing hence a strong addition to the website design.

Create a playful logo with bunnies and bright colours for boys and girls and it should probably be designed with signage in mind.
First of all we needed to design a logo that had many elements in it to tell a little story. This logo has clouds, a colourful rainbow and a yellow sun.

Having tried to do it himself using wix, especially relevant he admitted that it just was not professional enough. He is thinking about working in New Zealand, hence the site needed to be of the highest standard. In his career he has worked on and produced some incredible buildings. It is rather impressive that he has international clients in Dubai, Morocco and South Africa consequently his website portfolio had to be very professional.
The Brief – His taste in design is very modern and contemporary due to his love of expensive houses. Clean lines and sophisticated colours are also vital but especially relevant they must be ultra modern. He has incredible images of stunning buildings and resorts.
A large full width image gallery seemed like a perfect inclusion. This is website portfolio had to hit the design heights worthy of a top internationally recognised Architect. Needless to say we needed to use all our skills and resources to produce something really special. The use of menus and sliders along with superb accent and complimentary colours were used to create a smart and professional look. As a result it is worthy of a well established, talented Architect.
Well the results were absolutely breathtaking to say the least. We used one of his technical drawings, changed the colours while adjusting the 3D scale. Consequently we used it as the backdrop for his profile. Finally we added a picture of him in a round shape, slightly translucent. Especially relevant it created a futuristic feeling of depth. As a result this project has attracted another two new international clients just hours after its inclusion into our website portfolio.
In conclusion, we split the projects up into three categories and introduced a slider. We used smaller images as buttons. This solution firstly shows off his images again and also creates a gateway into the project. Another wonderful project we loved working on.

The Brief – Their brand design had to be upmarket and very professional while making use of high end graphic design and photography. The use of photoshop was a big plus for this design company.
We kept the roman pillar in the logo and used it throughout their corporate brand design. We wanted to add a little extra wow factor to the envelope design that would make people excited to open it. An orange round sticker was introduced with their logo icon on it as a seal for the envelope.
We fulfilled the graphic design brief and consequently everybody loved the brand design. We have created an array of graphic design for Simpsons Interiors including stationery, branding design and a responsive website.
We also kitted out his entire design studio in surrey with new Apple Macs, iPads and iPhones. All had to work seemlessly with calendars, contacts and business email addresses due to the fact that they are on site a lot of the time. This went very well and so we se up an easy-to-use Apple Airport Time Capsule for all backups.
The back up is very easy to retrieve and it feels like you are travelling back in time. Finally this was a big change so we provided some much needed Apple Mac training which they all enjoyed. It made life a lot easier. Months later they said they would never go back to the old way of working again.
