Hello there

Having created the University of Nottingham Business School’s nubiz magazine last year, Creative Triangle were delighted to be asked to produce this year’s edition but working with the University’s new corporate identity. The imagery throughout is led by the topical articles – a mixture of illustrations and photography, with squares of colour to break up the text. The publication is being distributed directly to over 15,000 alumni across the world – keeping their global alumni network connected and engaged.

We are absolutely thrilled to be recognised for both our hard work within our community and as a successful small business by winning TWO awards at last night’s Leicester Mercury Business Awards! Go Team Triangle!!

We were commissioned to develop a clean, flexible and modern brand identity, logo, marketing literature, branded goods, website & digital marketing for the Advanced Materials Characterisation and Simulation Hub (AMCASH) project, which is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), for the University of Birmingham.

The brand needed to resonate with the Metallurgy and Materials sector and sit comfortably with the University’s and ERDF’s logos. So far it has been rolled out on leaflets, a holding page for the website, exhibition banners and promotional materials including pens, bags, mugs and more.

We are thrilled to have been nominated in The Drum’s Roses Creative Awards 2018 for Best Item of Self Promotion for our beautiful notebooks.

We are so excited to have been nominated for TWO awards at this year’s Leicester Mercury Business Awards! Nominated for SME Business of the Year and for the Contribution to the Community Award – both categories mean a lot to us and we are thrilled to have been recognised for our achievements.

Creative Triangle have been assigned the task of helping to develop Heathrow’s Agile working strategy by creating an identifier and graphic style, manager’s toolkit, line manager brochure, case study films and launch event to encourage employees to support and engage with the communications.
 
To help develop an environment and culture where colleagues are empowered to have more choice over when they work and the way in which they work we coined the campaign line ‘#WorkSmart: Agile working is smarter working’ alongside illustrations and a tickertape graphic to highlight the benefits of agile working.

We have enjoyed our various fundraising activities in 2017 so much that we have decided to continue along the same lines for 2018. As a team, we have chosen two charities close to our hearts – Local hospice Loros and Brain Research UK – to support this year.

We are also in talks to start supporting Hope Against Cancer with free design work and marketing advice.

It’s an exciting time for our client Birmingham Conservatoire – or should we say Royal Birmingham Conservatoire – a new building, a new title and with it a new look for their ‘What’s on’ guides.

Creative Triangle were appointed to refresh and modernise their quarterly event information guide ready for the soft launch of the new, purpose built performing arts institution. Our design concepts needed to reflect the perfect fusion of music and acting and of traditional and contemporary – they needed to be creative, inspiring and really promote the Conservatoire as a forward thinking and extraordinary place to be.
 
‘The results were fantastic and the new look and feel reflected the quality, ambition and excitement of the new venues’
Andy Roberts, Marketing and Audience Development Officer

To round off our big year of fundraising for Leicester Hospitals Charity, British Heart Foundation and Cancer Research UK we invited representatives from each charity to our studio to officially handover our cheques for the final amount – £5,000 each (£15,000 in total!!!).

We have had such a good year of team bonding through our charity and community activities we have decided to continue our efforts in 2018. Watch this space for who we will be supporting this year.

Our new notebooks have each been lovingly designed by our design team, printed on beautiful Fedrigoni stock and finished with a gloss foil blocking…

We are featured in today’s Leicester Mercury discussing all that is Creative Triangle – what we’ve been up to, who we work with and our exciting plans for the future.

Well 2017 has certainly been a crazy year for us Triangles…not only have we been busy creating effective designs for our clients but we have achieved all of our ’10 things to celebrate 10 years’…raising nearly £15,000 for charity in the process!!

Creative Triangle have been supporting local charity Menphys (for Leicestershire’s children and young people with disabilities) for the last 3 years by providing free design and marketing expertise – including their annual Carol Concert programme. This year’s Carol Concert at De Montfort Hall was the biggest turnout so far in its 34-year history!

Hopefully by now you are chomping through this year’s Creative Triangle advent calendar. We took the opportunity to share with everyone our a fantastic fundraising year…we are so close to raising £15,000 now!!

There is still time to sponsor us for all the activities we have completed as a team this year including Sky Diving, Yorkshire 3 Peaks, Wolf runs, Bubble runs and more! All for amazing charities that are very close to our hearts! We really appreciate every one of our clients, suppliers, friends and family that have already supported us – thank you!

Creative Triangle were delighted to have been asked to design and produce graphics for Heathrow’s first ever airport wide colleague football tournament. We produced several assets including branded footballs, t-shirts, flags, an official match day programme and more.

The event, championed by the airport community, proved to be a huge success raising over £7,000 for the Duke of Edinburgh award.
