The Importance of First Impressions, and Graphic Design.

Graphic Design or simply 'artwork' touches every part of our lives, from the logo on your t-shirt or favourite drink, to the 'GUI' (graphical user interface) of your favourite cell-phone, game or business applications. 

Seemingly invisible or unimportant design decisions have incredible effect on our subconscious mind and our perception of products/brands and effects everything from how we feel to how much we think something is worth. 
A simple font change or colour, can make all the difference.

The lasting impression of your brand and logo
Is as important as your first impression.

What is your first impression to potential clients?
What is your lasting impression for potential and existing clients?


A business card, a website, your facebook or linkedin page, are
ALL incredibly important. 
Making it look good, is just as important because it tells clients
that you are better, faster, trustworthy and mean business.

It's subtle, yes.
But it can make all the difference when closing a sale
or when a customer visits your website for the first time to make a decision.
Does your branding send a message of trust? 
or do those missed details mean you may also miss details
when doing business for your clients?

Make sure you are giving off the right impressions!
Consistent branding and message throughout all your print and web materials will do wonders for your bottom line through repeat, referral and first time sales. 

If you are not sure what all of this means. It is important for your company! 
Let us make sure your branding and image is maintained.
Or how we can create a strong new direction for you.


We have worked with several winning creative brands and have that special knowledge and experience to create your logo.
We look forward to helping you and your brand.
