Promotional Badges Can Still Be Fun!

Promotional Gifts for The Cornwall Home Show
One of our clients, Absolute Joinery, recently exhibited at The Cornwall Home Show held at Kingsley Village. They approached us asking for some promotional material to give out to prospective clients. They had previously remarked on our own badges, which we had produced to work alongside our 2009 calendar, and were looking for something just as fun and quirky.

So we set about working on two designs around the theme of wood and bespoke design. On one badge was simply written in a cartoon-like font "I Love Wood" in brown tones, and the other featured a collection of furniture in white on a background of wood grain. The limited size is always a challenge but there is something irresistible about designing badges, they have an indie-cool and are very collectable - everyone likes something they can pick up and take away for free. The company's web address was included so people would remember where the badges came from.

Absolute pride themselves in producing work that stands alongside the highest standard of carpenters in Cornwall comfortably. Their website has a busy portfolio gallery full of recent work, and there is always something new being added.

New Branding for Cornish Fudge Company

Buttermilk Shop wanted a fresh contemporary look for their Cornish fudge company, but essential in the brief was ensuring that their primary market was not alienated during the change. This is a challenge we face with many projects, as the years spent building up a customer base are not to be taken lightly. We came up with a clean typographic solution which could be placed onto different colours to reflect different flavours on the packaging. This is accompanied by a small line drawing, reflecting the Cornish coastline. The vector image is key to the connection between old and new, a crisp modern style of illustration representing the long tradition of Cornish fishing ports where the Buttermilk shops are located.

Brand design has moved in new directions in recent years, and with the advent of mobile internet, promises to develop into ever new unexpected formats. Twitter has snowballed in recent months, and continuing our clients' visual identity here is also important. Above is the custom Twitter background that we created for Sean Maher's Twitter feed. It carries his brand for the charity bike ride, Riding Out The Recession, where he will be heading from Cornwall to Cape Town. It carries artwork from the website we are currently putting the finishing touches on, and his new logo. Make sure you keep an eye on his progress, we will put updates on our blogs and Sean will be both twittering and blogging as he travels.
