More Details
We offer the complete service from original illustrations and absorbing concepts to colourful, exciting, printed or digital downloadable resources.
We bring energy, innovation and lots of experience, coupled with a warm and friendly approach, collaborating with you throughout. We listen carefully, capturing your tone of voice, brand and that all-important ‘spirit’ of your business, to bring out the best of your site, celebrating your ‘hidden gems’.
Our team are all under one roof, helping us to share creative ideas to show your attraction at its best. Helping you to create memories for your customers is our passion and we will set you apart from the rest, as we deliver increased visitor dwell times, promote return visits and valuable referral business. Showcasing your unique collection and must-see attractions is what we do best.
We are proud to tell you that everything we produce is made in Britain, using responsibly sourced materials.
Some of our most recent projects include:
Army Flying Museum – a detailed site map, for both indoors and outdoors, showcasing the unique aircraft and special monuments at this immersive and engaging museum. Family resources to help show everything on offer, and the educational opportunities of a school visit were key too. We worked closely with key departments including education, visitor services and the curatorial staff.
Castle Howard – we do short deadlines and Castle Howard’s new A5, Skelf Island attraction was illustrated, printed and delivered in five working days! A map of the enchanting new play area and activities to engage family visitors went down as fast as a child on the zip wire! No matter how short the deadline though, we never compromise on quality!
Holkham Hall – all our clients receive the same level of quality and attention to detail. Holkham Hall had a very exacting brief and a clear focus on what their new map would look like. The colour palette, illustration style and content of the map were discussed in meticulous detail, and the result is a large, flexible map that can be used on printed material as well as throughout the site on sign boards. Additional maps for other key parts of the estate were created to complement the main map. The result is a cohesive set of maps, leaflets, wall coverings and additional resources to showcase this important historic house, grounds and estate.
St Barbe Museum – we have produced a series of three resources, including two family activity sheets for two different age groups, picking out the best bits of a social history museum with a big part to play in the community. A template completed the suite in order that each new exhibition can be brought to life at the same high standard every time.
