To design an engaging A4 brochure and a tri-fold leaflet for the D-Day Story museum in Portsmouth. The preferred layout and design is to be in the International typographic style (Swiss style). The design-work must feature grids, asymmetric layouts, sans-serif typography, geometric abstraction, simplicity and photography. The overall design must be respectful to those who took part in the D-Day landings and campaign.
Our design solution features a range of spreads that utilise grids, asymmetric layouts, sans-serif typography, geometric abstraction, simplicity and photography. The front and back covers use diagonal/slanted texts/imagery and sans serif fonts. We used a clear typographical hierarchy including drop caps, headings, sub headings and pull-quotes, which we arranged using a 3 column layout.
To create an information pack and free gift, to be given out to people visiting a Van Gogh art exhibition. The pack is to contain printed information materials about Van Gogh, such as a leaflet or booklet and an outer container, such as a bag or a box. The design should feature images of his paintings and details about his life.
As part of my design solution, we created 2 information leaflets, one trifold and one square booklet, showcasing Van Gogh’s work. We created eye-catching designs which display close-up images of Van Gogh's artwork in large circles, with accompanying text about the artist. We chose colours from Van Goghs paintings to link the design to his work.
Part 1: To design unique lettering which is to become part of the brand identify for a new restaurant and ‘Foodie’ magazine called EAT. Part 2: To design a front cover for the new magazine, which sets the tone for future editions. Part 3. To create a layout to be used throughout the magazine, which allows for closeup photographs, interesting articles about and recipes used at the restaurant.
We created the letter forms by arranging cooking utensils in to the shapes of letters, we then photographed these letters against a black card background. Using Photoshop, we refined the lettering. We designed the magazine front cover in InDesign and boldly used the unique lettering for the title ‘EAT’. We designed the inner spread in InDesign, with a 4 column layout, side bars, pull quotes and bold images.
We believe that great design has the power to transform businesses. We specialise in creating custom designs that are not only visually appealing but also strategically effective. From logo design and branding to web design, we offer a wide range of design services to help you stand out from the competition !
