We’ve been busy creating an entire literature system to support our PR work for the 100th Anniversary of Michelin House in London. We designed an Anniversary logo device using the original 1911 Bibendum figure alongside the latest 2011 Bibendum, together with bespoke invitations, menu covers, press packs, information sheets and a limited edition Anniversary poster to be sold in the Conran shop.

The work stood out beautifully at the events held at Michelin House, now Conran’s Bibendum Oyster Bar & Restaurant.

We love new challenges and when Hope Against Cancer asked us to create a strong but understated presence for them within the Oncology Unit at Leicester Royal Infirmary we really wanted to help.

Hope Against Cancer raise money to fund vital cancer research throughout Leicestershire and Rutland. Where better for them to tell people about themselves than the main Oncology Unit in the leading University Hospital in Leicestershire? We’ve supported Hope for many years and relished the challenge to work in a large scale environment, but there were some serious constraints on what we could do.

This weekend some of our staff and collaborative companies gave their own time to turn our idea into a whole series of installations in the main public areas, a mix of powerful posters and key typographic messages on vinyl applied directly onto the walls. Hope’s powerful symbol, the dove, appears throughout helping guide people through the inspirational graphics.

The LRI are delighted with the results, so are we. A message from Hope Against Cancer to us before Christmas said simply – “Just brilliant. I am totally overwhelmed. It’s the best Christmas present anyone could have given me”.

A successful, regional business recovery team, Cranfield asked us to design the current identity and literature almost 10 years ago. At the beginning of 2010 it deserved a little polishing here and there.

We’ve designed new stationery, 2 brochures and a ‘must have’ executive goodie bag.

For the goodie bag, we sourced UK manufactured sustainable products that will grace any corner office, including a wooden Yoyo – forget the Apple iPad, these are really cool.

For the past few months, we’ve been busy designing a complete literature system for the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors new division – Training.

RICS is the global benchmark for professional Surveyors, but until now, they offered no set training to achieve this. Our brief was to create a strong, established message, with a consistent brand style to reinforce it.

We have created a crisp, linear design template with striking architectural and people photography which reflects the professionalism and dynamism of RICS for the lead introduction brochure. A complimentary seasonal course insert slides into a hidden pocket providing a full overview of the training they provide.

One of our existing clients, Mark Group, has invested in this ground-breaking energy supply concept – to provide public sector buildings, such as schools with green renewable energy on a pay as you go basis. We’ve created everything from the logo and literature to the website with one aim – to make the information accessible, bright and fresh thinking.

We have been working for Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust since summer 2008, creating all their marketing communications and helping them towards their target of Foundation Trust status.

This is the second annual report we have done for them and as well as documenting their financial progress, also shows what’s happened in LPT over the year. It’s hugely gratifying to see how they’ve developed in such a short time and we love being able to help them tell their story.

We love what we do – day in day out, but sometimes, a project comes along that really does make us smile that little bit more.

A logo for a new local village hall that can reflect the part it has to play in the community.

Bringing people together – small, tall, young or old, the village hall plays host to many event.

The RKH design team created a logo that presented not only vibrancy and happiness, but a community spirit able to translate into other areas.

Gavin Kemp is fast becoming known for his distinctive fashion photography, capturing personality, individuality and energy in every image. RKH were asked to create a simple mailer that reflected this and more.

Instead of the standard large image, no text, we took style cues from the fashion magazines of the past and designed a mailer that grabbed attention when it hit desks throughout the UK.

The response has been superb with a number of high profile photo shoots booked already.

Having sold David Wilson Homes, the Wilson family wanted to go back to grass roots, and create bespoke homes of distinction. We were asked to create a complete identity for the new generation – strong type, mark and corporate colour guarantee Davidsons are set to be the new home of choice.

Leicestershire Partnership Trust are applying to become a NHS Foundation Trust and an integral part of the process is to attract a public membership. We were called in to create a brand that would capture the imagination and inspire people to join the cause. A fresh, clean look with an open and welcoming visual style kickstarted their recruitment drive.

Andrew + Ashwell have a well respected reputation, being seen as one of Leicester’s premier commercial property specialists for well over 100 years. Not wanting to disregard their history, we have created an evolutionary new look to bring them smack up to date, with new website, literature and boards being erected throughout the Mildlands.
