What We Create

Every Element Your Brand Needs —
Built to Last

We don’t just draw a logo and walk away. We build the full toolkit your business needs to look sharp, communicate clearly, and grow with confidence.

Logo Design

A logo is the foundation everything else is built on. We create original, professional logos that capture your brand personality and work beautifully at any size — from a business card to a billboard.

  • Primary, secondary & icon versions
  • Light & dark variants
  • Multiple colour options

Brand Guidelines

A comprehensive PDF document that defines exactly how your brand should look, feel and sound. Essential for teams, suppliers, and agencies to keep everything consistent.

  • Colour palette with hex, RGB & CMYK codes
  • Typography rules & hierarchy
  • Logo usage & exclusion zones

Business Cards & Stationery

First impressions happen in seconds. We design business cards, letterheads, compliment slips and other stationery that reflect your brand’s professionalism from the very first handshake.

  • Print-ready files to professional standards
  • Matching letterhead & envelope
  • Invoice & quote templates

Social Media Assets

Consistent social presence builds trust. We create a set of branded templates and static assets for LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and more so your feed always looks polished and on-brand.

  • Profile & cover images
  • Post templates in Canva or Figma
  • Story & highlight covers

Email Signatures

Every email is a brand touchpoint. We design professional, on-brand HTML email signatures that work across all major email clients — turning every message into a quiet bit of marketing.

  • HTML & image-based formats
  • Works in Outlook, Gmail & Apple Mail
  • Team-wide rollout guidance

Brand Strategy

Before we pick up a pencil, we help you define who you are, who you’re for, and what makes you different. Strategy ensures every design decision is intentional and serves a commercial purpose.

  • Brand positioning & values
  • Target audience profiling
  • Competitor differentiation
Our Thinking

More Than a Logo — A Complete Brand Identity

Most businesses get a logo and call it branding. But a great brand is so much more — it’s the complete visual and emotional experience a person has when they encounter your business. It’s the feeling they carry with them long after they’ve closed the tab.

Strong branding doesn’t just make you look good. It builds trust before anyone speaks a word. It tells your story, communicates your values, and positions you clearly in your market. Done well, it becomes your most powerful sales tool — working quietly in the background every single day.

We work with businesses in Barrow-in-Furness, across Cumbria and beyond to build brands that are strategically sound and visually exceptional. We take the time to understand your business, your customers and your ambitions before we ever start designing.

Memorable

Your brand should be instantly recognisable. We design marks and systems that stick in the mind and come to mind first when customers need what you offer.

Consistent

Consistency breeds trust. With proper brand guidelines, your identity looks polished and professional whether it’s on a van livery, a website or a social post.

Versatile

A great logo works everywhere. We design for real-world use — ensuring your brand looks just as strong on a tiny app icon as it does on a full-size exhibition stand.

Professional

Professional branding signals that you take your business seriously — and so should your customers. It reduces price resistance and attracts higher-value clients.

How It Works

Our Branding Process — Clear, Collaborative & Creative

We follow a proven four-step process that keeps you informed and involved at every stage, ensuring the final result truly represents your business.

01

Discovery & Research

We start with a detailed briefing session — in person, over the phone or via video call. We dig into your business goals, target audience, competitors and the values you want your brand to communicate. This shapes everything that follows.

02

Concepts & Ideas

Using the brief as our foundation, we develop initial logo concepts and visual directions. We present multiple creative routes, each with a clear rationale explaining the thinking behind the design choices and how they serve your brand.

03

Refine & Finalise

You choose the direction you love and we refine it together. We make amendments, explore variations, dial in the typography and colour palette, and test the brand across real-world applications until it’s exactly right.

04

Deliver & Support

We hand over a fully organised brand assets folder with everything you need in every format. We walk you through the files, explain what to use where, and remain on hand for any questions as you start putting your new brand to work.

What’s Included

Everything You Need, Delivered & Documented

No missing files, no “I’m not sure what format I have”. You leave with a complete, professionally organised package ready to use immediately across every application.

Vector Logo Files

Fully scalable .AI and .SVG source files that stay crisp at any size, from a business card to a building wrap.

Multiple Formats

PNG (transparent background), JPG, PDF, SVG and EPS — every format you’ll ever need, clearly labelled and ready to share.

Style Guide PDF

A professionally designed document covering your logo rules, colour system, typography and usage guidelines.

Font Licences & Links

Clear information on the typefaces used, where to source them, and the appropriate licences for print and digital use.

Colour Palette

Full colour codes in HEX, RGB and CMYK — ensuring perfect, consistent colour reproduction across screens and print.

Brand Assets Folder

Everything neatly organised in a structured folder system, ready to drop into Dropbox, Google Drive or your server of choice.

Revision Rounds Included

We include structured revision rounds in every project so you can give feedback and we can refine until the brand is exactly right.

Ongoing Support

Questions after delivery? We’re still here. Our clients get ongoing access for guidance on applying their brand correctly as they grow.

Common Questions About Branding

Can’t find your answer here? Give us a call or send a message — we’re always happy to chat through your project.

Ask Us Anything
How long does a branding project take?

A full branding project typically takes 3–6 weeks from initial briefing to final delivery, depending on the scope. A logo-only project can often be completed in 2–3 weeks. We’ll give you a clear timeline at the outset and keep you updated throughout. Rush projects can sometimes be accommodated — just get in touch.

What file formats will I receive?

You’ll receive your logo and brand assets in all the formats you’ll ever need: SVG and AI vector source files, PNG with transparent background at multiple sizes, JPG, PDF and EPS. All files are clearly named and organised into a folder structure so you can find exactly what you need, when you need it.

Can you redesign my existing logo?

Absolutely. Logo refreshes and rebrands are something we do regularly. We’ll work with you to understand what’s worth keeping (equity in your current identity) and what needs updating, evolving the brand rather than throwing everything away — unless a complete rethink is what you need.

Do I own the copyright to my new brand?

Yes — 100%. Once the project is paid in full, all intellectual property rights transfer to you. Your logo, your brand guidelines, your stationery — it’s all yours to use however you like, forever. We retain the right to showcase the work in our portfolio, but everything else belongs to you outright.

Can you create branding for a brand-new startup?

We love working with startups. In fact, getting your branding right from day one is one of the smartest investments you can make. We’ll help you define your positioning, nail down your visual identity, and give your new business the professional foundations it needs to grow and attract the right customers from the very start.
