We get it choosing a graphic designer is a big decision. You're trusting someone to communicate your ideas, represent your business and create something your customers will remember.
So we'd be surprised if you didn't have questions. Below are some of the things we get asked a fair amount. If there is something we have missed, get in touch. We are always happy to have a chat.

Direct communication with your designer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know.
We help businesses communicate clearly and look their best through thoughtful, strategic design.
Our services include: Logo design | Brand identity | Brand Strategy | Brand guidelines | Brochures and printed materials | Packaging design | Merchandise design | Illustration design | Social media graphics | Website graphics | Marketing materials | Exhibition graphics | Digital design
Every project is different, so we always start by understanding you, your business and your target audience before recommending a possible approach. Sometimes you need a complete brand identity, but the fix could be as straightforward as a brochure to grab more attention, or someone to help bring your awesome ideas into laser focus.

Not at all.
A clear brief is useful, but many awesome projects begin with a simple conversation. You might know your current branding feels outdated, or you’ve outgrown your current look and feel and in most cases, you know your business deserves better.
That is more than enough. We will ask the right questions, understand what you're trying to achieve, and help shape the project from there.
Explore our process: Creative Process
It all starts with a conversation.
We will have a natter in person if you live locally to our Bedminster HQ, or on the phone if not, to discuss the best way to proceed. During said call, we will learn about your business, your audience, what you want to achieve, and where you need our help. From there, we will recommend the best approach and provide a clear proposal via email to outline the plan.
No complicated process or unnecessary jargon, just honest advice and a straightforward plan of action.
Every project is different, but the process usually follows these stages:
Discovery: This stage is all about understanding your dream. During the discovery call, which we hold in person or online, we will define your audience, messaging, values and gain insights into the visual direction.
Design: Once we have explored ideas and agreed on the best direction, the design process begins. The creative process all starts in a sketchbook, defining both direction and visual language to hit the world with. We will develop custom word marks, logos and anything else we feel will marry well to your needs.
Development: In the development stage, we will transform the approved designs into fully functional branding or applications. We will utilise the latest techniques and formats to ensure you stay relevant. The overall outcome will leave your competitors confused as to what just happened.
Launch & Support: Once we’ve finalised everything, we will get you ready for your clients and the world by ensuring your branded goodies are ready to be used straight away. And of course we are on hand for any questions and updates you might need during this process and beyond.

It depends on the size and complexity of the work.
A smaller design project may take a few days, while a complete brand identity can take several weeks. We will always agree realistic timescales before starting, so you know exactly what to expect.
Good design takes thought; we believe it is worth getting right.
Absolutely.
We love helping businesses find their visual voice, whether you are launching something new or growing an established company.
You definitely don’t need to be a large organisation to benefit from professional design; you simply need to care about how your business is presented.

Your logo is one part of your brand.
Your brand is everything people experience when they interact with your business.
It includes your colours, typography, imagery, website, printed materials, messaging, and the overall feeling people take away.
A logo helps people recognise you, but a strong brand helps people remember you.
Yes.
We create logos that are designed specifically for your business, your audience and your goals.
If you are starting from scratch, we can create something new and completely bespoke, or if you already have a logo that no longer feels right, we can refine and refresh it.
The goal is always the same: a logo that feels like you and works everywhere you need it to.
The best logos are memorable, flexible, and easy to recognise.
A great logo should work across your website, social media, printed materials, signage, and anything else your business needs. One of the most important things to remember is that it does not need to explain everything.
It simply needs to create the right impression.
If you want your branding to stay consistent as your business grows, then yes.
Brand guidelines provide a clear reference for how your visual identity should be used. They cover things like colours, fonts, logo usage, imagery, and design style.
They make sure your business always looks like the same business.
Standing out is not always about being louder than everyone else.
It is about understanding what makes your business different and communicating that clearly.
We create brands that grab attention, not approval, for the right reasons. When we are finished your branding will feel distinctive, authentic, and memorable. The strongest brands are usually the clearest ones.

We will find a way of working that suits you; the most important thing is good communication.
Feedback is an important part of creating great design.
You don't need to know design terminology. Just tell us what feels right, what doesn’t, and what you want your customers to understand.

We will make sure you have everything you need for print, digital use, and future marketing.
