Projects
- Branding of a New BusinessCreating a hand drawn logo to fit with the gardening business category, incorporating their chosen font and layout. Made sure business cards, email signatures, flyers and brochures were all formatted correctly for print/ on screen, and were easy to adapt for new members of the company.
- Limelight Accountancy BannersProducing three banners and marketing material for Limelight Accountancy, using their brand guidelines. The banners, 1m x 1.8m are fixed to the outside of their offices using eyelets, so it was crucial to ensure no important information was on the edges. Each banner had different information based on the time of the year to fit with the accounting calendar, and Christmas.
