Sneak preview of Oswell’s

domchocolate — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 14:16:12 +0000

We have been working on a new identity and an e-commerce website for Oswell’s. All will be launched properly in March but in the meantime here is a sneak preview.

Walk the walk

domchocolate — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 14:01:57 +0000

If you are a not-for-profit social enterprise charged with both encouraging individuals to walk and convincing corporate/community-based organisations of its social merits then it is imperative you ‘walk the walk’ as well as ‘talk the talk’.

We helped Walk England do just that by helping them find their voice with their three target audiences – consumer (walkers), corporate and community (local authorities, central government, schools, health professionals and environmental organisations). First, we re-articulated their offer in a straight-forward manner. Then we created a brand platform and a brand visual identity sophisticated enough to be able to resonate coherently with all their stakeholders.

Above are the business cards (above). They demonstrate the logo, some of the colour palette and typography in use. The reverse of the cards accommodate personal experiences of the staff members favourite ‘round-trip’ walk.

We look forward to working with them throughout January and will hopefully be able to post some new work in February or March. Watch this space.

We are busy rebranding Oswell’s, the home and gift store in the North East, and creating a new e-commerce website. We should be able to show off the brand and the website some time in February – including their letterpress business cards. Very exciting!

We are pleased to announce we have CPFT as a new client. This is very exciting news. We have already started working with them with their electronic communications and we are looking forward to working with them more over the coming months.

Award winning graphic design

domchocolate — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 13:23:23 +0000

The brochure we designed for South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM) has been commended at the British Medical Association’s (BMA) 2011 Patient Information Awards. In the words of the BMA the “Awards aim to encourage the production and dissemination of accessible, well-designed and clinically balanced patient information.”

We are very proud our work received this acknowledgement for graphic design and communication effectiveness and congratulate the team in SLaM’s clinical marketing department – headed by Emma Sutton.

2011 directories complete

domchocolate — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 13:17:11 +0000

We have just finished the two National Service directories we do each year for South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust.

The directories catalogue all the mental health services that South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM) offer and puts an in-depth description of the treatment programmes and the costs against them. One directory is for adult services and the other is for children and adolescents. This is so GPs, GP Consortia, Psychiatrists and other health care professionals can see what is available, how much it costs and the process to get someone admitted. With over 100 pages, 30 services and 154 mental health conditions they are quite epic publications.

As well as these two catalogues we have also halfway through designing 50 individual service brochures – not to mention the exhibition design and eMarketing work we have done with them. To see this work click here.
