slanted bullet Branding slanted bullet Stationery slanted bullet Brochure slanted bullet ID Guides

Specialist toughened glass manufacturer required a logo that depicted the binding process. I presented a few 2D comps which didn’t really hit the mark so I turned to using Cinema 4D to produce a proper 3D logo which was then recreated as a spot colour and 4 colour vector file so it could be used without any limitations on resolution & quality.

2 brochures where produced and finished with a matt laminated cover with a spot UV varnish on all images and logos throughout.

Also produced was a simple XML / Flash based interactive version which could be viewed on-line together small detailed set of corporate guidelines were also created for internal use.

Complete re-design of all marketing literature from the ground up. The client is a large global organisation which has smaller companies within it.

I had to re-design all the literature so it was all visually consistent and easily identified throughout together with being able to accommodate translated text for overseas use. A simple solution was to colour code each manufacturer and work around that.


Also produced was a set of detailed corporate guides showing layout grids, colour values and templates.

A complete re-design of all marketing literature from the ground up. The client is a large national manufacturer which has smaller companies within it.


All items required visual consistency and easily identified by enhancing the use of existing corporate colour schemes and imagery. Special attention was paid to enhance the imagery & print finishing as we were supplied with some very high quality shots which focused on the attention to detail this company prides itself on. The final suite of brochures, folders and stationery look stunning.

Produced was a set of detailed corporate guidelines showing new layout grids and templates.

Example shown is the price list incorporating all of
the above into one finished element.
