Autumnal announcements

Check it out, we’re live!

Remember our work with Croydon BID for their Ambassadors and their new consumer website, checkoutcroydon.com, from last month? We teased you with a few visuals and the promise that it would soon be live, well, the time has come. Checkoutcroydon.com was officially launched on Friday 30th October just ahead of the Christmas Lights switch on, which will be happening later in November. To celebrate, a competition with a handsome £500 prize has been launched, and the Check Out Croydon Street Ambassadors will also be out in force distributing flyers and encouraging Croydon to check it out.

As Matthew Sims, Chief Executive of the Croydon BID, says

The website provides an ideal platform for showcasing, in one place, the impressive range of shops, restaurants, bars and entertainment already on offer in Croydon and we believe the site’s importance and relevance will only continue to grow, as the pace of Croydon’s re-development accelerates and new businesses and initiatives, such as BOXPARK Croydon, come on board.” We’re all excited to see it out there in the public, and can’t wait to see how it grows over time.

 

CSP new site

CSP Home

This month CSP, retail property agents, have launched their shiny new website, designed and built by yours truly. We created a bespoke WordPress site that is easy to manage and we’ve made it even easier by programming the site to pull in live data and feeds, meaning less manual updates for them!

Responsive layouts were key with this site as many of their clients use the site whilst on the road, so each responsive break point was as important as the navigation and layouts for the desktop site.

The design subtly reinforces the brand through the colour palette and by using the unique CSP rectangular icon shape to hold imagery, buttons and logos. The site also showcases their bespoke icon library that we created as part of the project to visually represent each page. Take a look at their new site here.

KP getting some loving

Our work on KP Snacks workspace interiors was a great project to work on and we’re thrilled Creative Pool & DesignWeek  agreed and featured us on their sites. To top this off we got a great quote from our client: “we were overrun with great ideas from a centrepiece WOW factor to small, personal details that create all the difference in making our new office feel uniquely KP.”

Workspace branding is an area of our services which has grown substantially, see here, with companies realising branding should expand beyond print and an online presence to bringing personality into their physical work space by creating an engaging environment for both clients and staff.

This is no Act

You may remember our branding work for Act for the Act. Well the success of the crowd funding has meant their nationwide poster campaign launched at the end of October. Spot the posters in one of the 97 tube stations around London or on one of the Nationwide roadside billboards.

Their campaign encourages people to add their names to the letter to Justice Secretary Michael Gove, telling him the Human Rights Act is too important to us to be scrapped. If you’d like to add yours please click here.

The entries came in thick and fast. The scores have been counted, verified and the winner drawn from the top scorers by our independent adjudicator (our Uber driver on Friday night). We are very pleased to announce Stephanie Fraser is the winner with a solid 10/10 grabbing a pair of tickets to the spooky London Bridge Experience. Keep your eyes peeled for more from the quotebank.

For those of you who missed the quiz it’s still on our site if you fancy a go… but no more prizes for this one… sorry!

It’s a scary thought that we are in the penultimate month of 2015, but also exciting the festive period is almost upon us and that we’re printing our tothepoint 2016 calendar! As many of you will know, each year we send out our calendar as a little early Christmas present to see you through the following year and next year is a bit special as we’ll be celebrating our 25th year in business.
