Friday Showcase - back today with a new project we Friday Showcase - back today with a new project we've just designed for Brentwood Borough Council. After our creative work with Rochford District Council, they approached us to design an A5 24 Page booklet for their Community Governance Review. Following the government's announcement of the Local Government reorganisation, the information sets out what a CGR is, the proposed options for new Town/Parish Councils in the Brentwood Borough area and how residents can take part in the consultation and share views. 

The booklet adhered to their brand guidelines and included 9 local maps of the areas, which we re-created from supplied content. We've years of experience creating clear and visually appealing maps for the property industry, so this skill came in very handy! 

Once the design was signed off, we coordinated the large print run of the brochure, recommending the most appropriate print specifications and FSC-certified paper stock to achieve a professional, sustainable result. The booklet was delivered to all residents in the Brentwood Borough. Something we are very proud of (it's always nice to know our design work is being seen 'in the wild!'). 

Looking for professionally designed brochures, booklets or information packs for your organisation? Send us a message and let's chat about your next project.
Even we have to sometimes just scribble a sign. Mo Even we have to sometimes just scribble a sign. Monday night, just as we were about to go to bed. Our hot water pipe leading to the tap decided to explode. Within seconds water was flooding the bathroom floor. 🤦🏻‍♀️my instant reaction apart from shouting and screaming very loudly to get the water turned off was to grab as many bath towels as possible. We’ve just finished decorating our downstairs toilet (after a leak in the floor) and this was directly above it. 🤦🏻‍♀️ 

Whilst we wait for the plumber, everyone needs a constant reminder (especially me!) to only use the cold tap or we’ll be flooded again. 

It’s a good reminder that not every piece of communication out there needs paragraphs of text and fluffy AI over-produced visuals. 

Good design communication isn’t about adding more. It’s about creating something that is easy to understand straight away and can’t be missed. 
Ask yourself:
Is it clear?
Is it easy to understand?
Does it tell people what they need to know?

I think our post it note just about does this (though that water smudge does make it look like a ‘G’ now 😆)

Today we celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary. 🥂 Today we celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary. 🥂We’ve just returned from a fabulous week in Santorini and are now celebrating with a couple of days in Whitstable. 

As husband and wife business partners it’s important that we take time away from our work to recharge so we can come back refreshed. We’re back in the office on Wednesday and have several new projects to look forward to. 🤩

Back this week with a great Friday Showcase. We’v Back this week with a great Friday Showcase. 
We’ve been waiting for the client to go live on this one and are so pleased with the end result! 
This is a rebrand launch of a medical aesthetics and skin clinic based in Rayleigh. @restoreclinicrayleigh  asked for a classic, timeless logo for their new name. The five-sided polygon was chosen to represent balance, protection and renewal. Its structured form reflects medical expertise and professionalism, while its softer geometric proportions and rounded points convey care and wellbeing. Each side symbolises one of Restore’s five core principles: Protect, Restore, Rejuvenate, Strengthen and Maintain. 
As with all our branding projects we included real life situations so the client can see how they can implement the design into their clinic. 
It's been lovely to work on this rebrand and Frankee has already started to implement the branding into the clinic with signage. (see photos!) We wish Frankee the best of luck with the new relaunch - give her a follow!

Need help with your rebrand and want strategic thinking behind it as well as a visually appealing bespoke logo that fits your business? Message us for a no-obligation call.
This week is Dementia Action Week. To show our sup This week is Dementia Action Week. To show our support, we have a very special showcase today. 

I created a promotional poster, tickets and place cards for a very special group close to my heart. 

The ‘Forget-me-Not for dementia loss’ is a private Facebook group set up to offer support and advice to those who have lost loved ones to dementia. 

The group, led by the wonderful Julie Child and her sidekick Tracey Farish, also raise funds for dementia charities by organising fundraising events and raffles. 

It's a safe space for everyone to talk, share memories and support one another. It's not all sadness; in fact, it's actually a really upbeat and funny group, but the people in the group are always there when you need them. They currently have over 1000 members.

I first heard about the group via a friend who had also experienced loss from dementia. It was just before I lost my mum. Mum had battled Alzheimer’s for about 9 years and then sadly lost a very short fight to cancer in 2021. The group offered me comfort during those dark days (I was sleeping at the hospice when I joined), and that support is still there whenever I need it.

The group needed help with some promotional material for a 
charity ball, and so I offered my services to support them. We will also be building them a little website soon for free so they can continue the good work they do beyond Facebook. 

If there is anyone who needs any support after dementia loss, then please do look up this private Facebook group - 'Forget Me Not - For Dementia Loss' 

On a slightly different note - isn’t it nice to see an event poster that ISN’T created by Chat GPT!!😉
Excited to feature this new website launch for @lo Excited to feature this new website launch for @louise.legacytherapy today

Louise approached us to create a more professional online presence for her therapy practice. While she already had a basic DIY website, it wasn’t really communicating how she works, what therapy involves or helping visitors feel a genuine connection with her.

As well as creating a more cohesive website design that fits with her existing logo, a big part of this project was guiding Louise through the content, structure and overall journey of the website. We worked closely with her to shape what information should be included, how it should flow and what potential clients may need to see or understand before reaching out.

We also discussed introducing new imagery of her therapy space and encouraged her to record a short video introduction to help visitors feel more comfortable and connected before taking that first step. We're hoping she shares the outtakes at some point on her socials 😆

The new website includes testimonials and a helpful FAQ section, all designed to create a calmer, clearer and more reassuring experience for the viewer.

The result is a website that not only looks professional but genuinely supports the client journey as well. 

Our web design process is about far more than just how a website looks. We help businesses consider the full customer journey, creating websites that not only look professional but also genuinely connect with the viewer.

Not sure if your website is doing your business justice anymore? Get in touch, we’d love to chat and see how we can help.

Jumping on the @logoarchive.now @logoarchive trend Jumping on the @logoarchive.now @logoarchive trend which has (rightfully!) taken over our feed over the past 48 hours. 

In a world where we’re constantly being bombarded with AI and being told it will replace creatives (it won’t!), it’s inspiring to see so many brilliant logo and brand designers showing their favourite creations in black and white. 

After nearly 20 years in the business it took a while to narrow it down to this small collection. Which is your favourite mark?
