Your logo should convey something essential about your business’ identity, its attitude, its sense of style and professionalism. Along with your business
name, it's one of the main things that customers remember.
The Book Industry Communication is an independent organisation set up by publishers, booksellers and The British Library. They required a logo for their training division, and asked that it retain an element of their existing logotype. A logo based on a stylised open book was developed and applied across a full set of stationery.
The international media agency required a logo for their gaming division. The retro styling of 70s and 80s gaming characters lent itself to a number of solutions, the pick of which was destruction of the pixelated word PLAY.
A full set of stationery designed for a start-up publishing agency. A typographic solution presented itself, with playful swapping of characters to create the final design.
Call centre.co.uk required a full suite of logos, to cover their
range of magazines, website, conference programs and Expo at Birminghma NEC. The logo was designed to be part of a set, with the common theme being quote marks, referencing the interaction between a company and their customers.
As part of the redesign of one of their internal magazines, DHL required a new masthead, implying technology, speed and efficiency. A bespoke typeface was designed and the 'fast-forward' symbol worked into the final design.
A full set of stationery was required for Northern Ireland's premier wedding and portrait photographer. The design was
further used across a full range of marketing material including POS, signage and website.
