Design Services

In an over-crowded market place where everyone is constantly being exposed to information you need strong, clean, contemporary design to help you stand out from the crowd. Design that works, manages to stop the eye long enough for the message it contains to engage the mind.

Whether you have a business card, a logo, a magazine or a newspaper, or some branding done for your company the principle is the same. What we design helps promote your brand image, projects a certain message about your product, company or service and it works to meet target customer group expectations so that it can close the loop and enable you to succeed in your intended goal. The designs we create push the envelope of performance within each particular industry sector. In each case we generate a full rationalé, carry out targeted research and development, brainstorm so we can define the industry sector edge. We then focus-group test each option we have created and work the final choice to create a result which is vibrant, powerful and works fully to your benefit.

	Business Cards Business Cards when they are designed correctly have the potential to become an additional sales aid, reinforcing your company's message and helping in the market penetration of its brand and image. They are great for networking, easy to use for leveraging additional marketing opportunities and very useful when it comes to simply helping business contacts remember you.
	Logo & Branding In business image is not everything. Substance is. But get your image wrong and you will simply be unable to get to the point where you can convince your customers that the substance is there. Image is the tipping point. It is what makes customers establish that initial sense of appeal and trust that makes them contact you. At that point you have to work to make sure that you convert those contacts into clients.
	Magazines & Newsletters Our knowledge of what works in the digital world can benefit you in terms of creating a digital newsletter that allows you to drive more traffic to your website in a way that benefits you the moment the newsletter is sent. We can advise you on the best way to send your newsletter and how to set up the kind of metrics that will allow you to track the response.
	Book Covers Whatever we would like to think we still judge a book by its cover, or at least its potential readers do. That first judgement, that first impulse to reach out and take it off the shelf, to peruse it, to start making a decision as to whether to purchase it or not based on its content, it all begins with the cover. We understand this which is why we put as many as 60 manhours of research and development into every book cover we produce.
	Flyer & Leaflet Design In the age of the web you would think that print advertising is dead and you would be missing out on a valuable opportunity to increase your business and market share. Leaflets and flyers when designed properly and tested using multi-variate design methods and the Taguchi test analysis provide some of the most powerful offline marketing methods your business can employ.
	Book & eBook Layout Design A book is always judged by its cover and the same gos for an eBook. They are also judged by the quality of their typesetting. The quality and professionalism of your book's content need to be reflected by a professional layout subtly designed to perform to dual function of viral marketing and personal brand-building. Our Book and eBook designers are industry-experienced and adept at creating designs which enhance the overall effect of your book or eBook.
	Brochures & Catalogues Design A brochure or catalogue is much more than just a listing of your company's services and products. It is a golden opportunity to silently 'sell' the quality of your company and services to your potential customers. It is a chance to impress them with your professionalism and it is the perfect time to soft-sell what it is you do and how well you do it in the same convincing manner as you would in person. Our brochure and catalogue design service takes all this into account. Our designers work closely with an in-house business development consultant in order to make sure that the design, however cutting-edge it becomes, never overpowers the message you need to project.
	Menu Design The success of your restaurant or cafe business is never going to hinge on the quality of your printed menu. However, just like the type of chairs you buy and the kind of lighting you employ, the menu you have to give to your clients is an integral part of the identity of your business and a vital part of its image. Our menu design service is designed to give you the edge your restaurant business needs when it comes to creating and reinforcing a very specific image.
	Artwork You could be looking for some eye-catching graphics to liven up a digital presentation or you could be looking for some illustrations for the company’s annual report. Maybe there is a powerpoint presentation which needs to do more than just reassure those looking at it that you can press the right button at the right time.

This is where print design comes into the picture. More than just putting a few fancy borders on an A4 sized piece of paper our print design service works to rationalize each of the elements that go on the page in relation to the target audience, the content of the publication and its needs in terms of best presenting that content and perhaps updating in future. We bring out cutting-edge designed magazines. We create brochures that stop the eye and engage the mind and we create books that are packaged in a way that helps them sell as well as possible in an ultra-competitive market place.

To achieve that design we use our thorough knowledge of the print market and the latest industry-standard software software such as:

• The latest version of the Photoshop CSx series
• Adobe Illustrator
• Adobe InDesign
• QuarkXpress 7.0

Depending on your requirements we can build an editable template for you which you can then update yourself using a package such as Adobe Illustrator or, in cases of complicated, multi-layered software like QuarkXpress, we can keep your project on file and offer you competitive rates for updating the content each time you want to produce print-ready files.

Our design expertise cuts across several platforms. We bring a creative flair and visual excellence into play when we create advertising leaflets, promotional posters, business cards, logos and brand-promoting literature. Our restaurant menus have become an asset to those we work with which have helped increase their business turnover. Our catalogues, whether in print or purely digital, have helped companies increase sales and market share.
