Cafe Menus Full of Illustration

-

We have just completed new menus for the Wadebridge coffee shop, Caraways. They approached us to re-design their menus to reflect the feel of their friendly cafe.


We kept within their colour scheme of coffee browns, caramels and creams, but added a dusky sky blue. I chose a friendly serif font and filled the pages with my drawings of coffee cups and cakes, sandwiches and salad. The menu took the format of A5 folded with a durable matt finish.


The front page has an illustration of a large cup of steaming hot coffee, with a dotty frame surrounded by a crisp white background. Inside the format has titles, descriptions and prices separated by dotted lines and distinguished by colour and weight. The menu is such an important part of a cafe and we are pleased that Caraways now has something representing them in a fun and relaxed manner.

Pickle Design passed the three year milestone at the end of August, and we could not let it go by without marking the occasion. So Emma and Marie had the idea of taking advantage of the Camel Trail. We hired some bikes and rode the trail from Wadebridge to Padstow, remarkably between showers, although the wind did make the outward journey slightly more challenging (especially to our hair...). But we were spurred on by the thought of fish and chips when we got to our destination, and chose to sample some of Stein's. Marie brought her husband, Jai (above), along for the ride, and Emma invited her brother, Paul (below). The conversation was lively and ranged from our ubiquitous movie chat, a few moments contemplating Spurs' currently good progress in the league, and the astonishing scenery right on our doorstep. So that was three years and the fourth one looks to be even more interesting. We are just as keen to find challenging projects to work on, so feel free to contact us with ...

Camel Ski and Snow Flyers

The inside of the concertina fold Camel Snow flyer We thought we would show you some of our recent printing jobs for Camel Ski School who we have enjoyed working with for a number of years. The three DL flyers for Camel Ski School Initially they had an A4 folded to a third to promote the school, but as there is so much variety to their service chose to use three DL flyers which showcase key activities. They were distributed through the local region. The Camel Camps brochure cover The ski school, located in Rock, Cornwall, also runs camps for kids from the cities to make the most of outdoors activities and to teach them survival skills. The leaflets for the camps needed to work in a different way, they were to be sent to schools and needed to look eye-catching and dynamic. Inside pages of the Camel Camps flyer We thought the best format for this was a concertina fold leaflet. Each panel could then highlight a different aspect of what the team do and allow image...
