N&SE Coffey are a family run building firm, specialising in high quality domestic refitting and home improvements. They wanted a corporate identity that would extend a professional, reliable yet approachable personality. We delivered a modern, forward looking personality that infers dependability.

We also built them a portfolio website that would complement the brochure and promotional materials. By doing this at the same time we were designing the print materials meant that we could enforce brand cohesion across all the material.

Dave Butcher started compiling lake light in late 2009 from his extensive portfolio of photography taken over a number of years. Lake Light is his third book covering his work in and around the Lake District. It’s also the first book that he decided to self-publish, lending him a little more leeway in the book’s presentation. That’s where we came in.

We developed Dave’s corporate identity a couple of years ago whilst creating his business cards, promotional literature and exhibition material. We also rebuilt  his website last year, but had so far missed out on producing a book for him due to him being locked into working with his publishers.

We jumped on the opportunity to create a stylish, elegant piece of work that followed Dave’s brand guidelines properly and really helped to show off his work in a way it deserves. The photographs are what it’s all about, and the brief was to allow them to tell their own story without distractions, whilst at the same time also provide enough information about them for the casual reader without having to refer to an index. However, if you do want to know more there’s a full technical index at the back with details of the camera used, film type and format of each shot.

As well as the photographs themselves the book has a section containing useful information and technical details to help the budding photographer learn his craft, and this is where Dave’s meticulous attention to details and documentation really shine through.

Each plate is numbered and plotted on a map at the front of the book, so you can even go to the lake district and see each of the sites Dave visited for yourself.

We worked closely with Dave throughout the making of Lake Light to make sure that we lived up to his high standards, even to the extent of arranging for him to visit our printers as the books were running through the press in order to inspet and fine-tune the quality and we were delighted to deliver a product that does his work justice.

You can purchase Lake Light direct from the Dave Butcher from his website.

New Era had an unenviable task when they started. They were trying to enter an already overloaded market, although they had an excellent and innovative product.

When we were approached we didn’t know very much about fish, so we immersed ourselves in some in-depth research. What we found was that while there was lots of different products on the market there wasn’t a lot to differentiate between them. We decided to pitch New Era’s products as a luxury item, opting to focus the brand around black packaging instead of what seemed to be an industry standard of white emblazoned with gaudy, tacky labels. The result was a product that really stood out on the shelf packaged in a way that the best product on the market deserved.

We have been working with New Era for a number of years now and our relationship with them goes from strength to strength, advising them on new campaigns and producing all their promotional material, packaging, exhibition panels and website.
