Keighley Christmas Guide


Over summer, a contact of Will's got in touch and essentially employed us to work on their brochure for Keighley Council. A great opportunity to earn some money - but more importantly it's a chance to build a relationship with another design agency. Augemente are a small group of designers focussing on branding across the whole range, offering a relatively cheap price for what they do - they know how to make a living out of this industry. We have been dealing with Helen (accounts/client manager) and recently met her in Bradford, she's keen to keep the work coming and though they're only small jobs, the experience of working with someone like Helen is absolutely invaluable. 

Posts with the work we have produced will be up here as soon as possible.

Business Cards - Text Layout


Really like the little arrows, both as an interesting accent to the text, but mainly because it reflects the arrow shape in my logo.
The outline is just so you can see the document borders, this isn't a part of the design.









The favourite so far.

Business Cards

What a revelation, I do already have a business card, just not one I'd be happy showing to any industry professional. Remarkably similar to Will's you might say, well yes, it was the process I was most interested in and he happily lent me his text layout just to test this.



I did about 10 variations of the design on the front, but they were all pretty poor - quite like this one though.
As far as the process goes.. quite easy to hand produce, but as you can see from the product shot they are going a bit curled at the edges. Going to try something similar for Wednesday with thicker stock - and my own text for the back.

Liquid Lunch Identitiy

Just a quick update on the last week - Will and I have been working on an identity for a smoothie stall in the Manchester area.. 

Initial mock ups - We worked on these for quite a while, the layout of the individual elements became so time consuming and tedious that it took an argument and a half day break before we came to our senses and realised that this looked like a child's party set.


Menu and bag layout - More to follow!
Going into college tomorrow to photograph this properly, along with the rest of the range. This design is far more sophisticated, whilst keeping the aspect of fun you'd expect to find with this industry.
