New Projects

Invest in UK University R&D – Midlands Campaign

We created an engaging, fast-paced animation and prospectus for the Invest in UK University R&D – Midlands campaign, highlighting investment specifics and showcasing the partner universities involved. Both are now included on the new campaign website. We also created digital assets, banners, and large-format graphics which supported their attendance at the Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology, aiming to connect the UK’s innovation landscape with a global network of investors and partners.

University of Glasgow – InFrame Identity

We developed the brand identity for InFrame, a collaborative project between the universities of Glasgow, Edinburgh, and St Andrews, funded by Wellcome Trust. The project aims to create a framework for research leadership, recognising that a collegial approach to leadership is critical for supportive and equitable cultures. The logo is a frame divided into three sections, each representing a colour from the universities. We also provided brand guidelines to ensure consistency across all platforms.

Heathrow Employment & Skills Academy – 20th Anniversary

To celebrate 20 years of the Heathrow Employment & Skills Academy, we created a unique identifier, redesigned the atrium space with interchangeable wireframes, stair wraps, and window banners showcasing success stories. For the event, we designed and installed lantern banners, pull-up stands, flags, social frames, trophies, merchandise, and a film highlighting the Academy’s success over the last two decades.

Our small things that make a big difference

This festive period, we’ve taken the chance to give back and help those who need it most. We have raised £3,681 for Menphys through our charity quiz night, as well as supporting their carol concert with a designed and printed programme. We donated a range of goodies to the children’s cancer ward at Leicester Royal Infirmary, clothing and toiletries to The Bridge supporting the homeless, shelf-stable food to The Trussell Trust, and selection boxes to our community centre.

New wins

We’re excited to share some of our recent contract successes. We’ll be continuing our partnership with the University of Bedfordshire on their upcoming suite of 2026 prospectuses. We have successfully retendered for a place on the Centre for Ageing Better’s Design Framework, alongside being reappointed to deliver their flagship State of Ageing 2024 campaign. We’re also delighted to be welcoming Kilnbridge, Newcastle College, Bristol Airport and Ethos Farm to our expanding client portfolio. There’s a lot to look forward to!
