  • A brand new website to celebrate 6 years in business

    Well it was high time we got our finger out and practised what we preach to our clients. The result is an all new website that we can access any time we need to add our thoughts, new work, and expand on what we do for our clients.

    It’s built using the WordPress platform with a bespoke theme, designed by us and implemented by one of our partner agencies 45B (based in Edinburgh).

  • An experiment in vehicle dashboard design

    An experiment in vehicle dashboard design

    Following many years of driving and recent advances in screen quality, combined with a long night time drive from Scotland to Bath, I wanted to investigate what my ideal dashboard design would be.

    In research it seemed clear that it was all still about the dials. Wherever a manufacturer has chosen to move away from this into numbers they always seem rooted to the digital typeface, never choosing to use a clear and legible face. Onboard computers would be relegated to a small section of the display and the driver would be forced to cycle through the options. Surely there was enough real estate there to show all those multiple options such as outside temperature, how much fuel you have left, etc.

    What transpired is a typographic solution to a personal grumble. Maybe if I get into car design I can enforce some change from within, but given I don’t know any clients in that sector I’d say the chances are slim. Nevermind, it was fun to think about something totally different for a change and apply my preferences to.

  • 6 years in business

    The 3rd November 2011 marked the start of the 7th year of business and the end of the 6th. We’ve had a very busy year and so would like to thank everyone who’s helped ensure we keep on trucking. We’ve produced websites, exhibitions, complete brand reviews, office signage, cards, moved into our own office and so much more in the last 12 months.

    Here’s to another year of working with the best clients a designer could wish for!
