With so much information around today content is not enough. Good looks aren't either, but the synergy great design can impart let's your message cut through the streams of data available today in print, broadcast and cyber worlds.

Design is what makes "the" communication effectiveness difference between what your powerful PC might output from a WORD program, and what you are prepared to pay hundreds of dollars for as a truly wonderful book to look through, to read, and to absorb. Below are examples of design projects that illustrate how our imaging and intellectual input works in many different contexts.

For Simsmetal, one of the world's largest metal recyclers, we developed their 80 year old logo into a corporate design suite to brand this evolving, highly successful global network.

For Newport Capital we designed, from an initial chat with their CEO, the name, the look and the plan for implementing this classical design style for an investment adviser in high technology markets, yet in a totally up-to-date way.

For corporations, private companies, and individual entrepreneurs we develop brands, logos, images and colour palettes to give their enterprise a unique personality. In a world where "brands" and "generic concepts" fight it out for customer loyalty, the middle grey area is the most dangerous place for any business to be. Make a statement, or become irrelevant very quickly in today's market. Click on brands above to see some case studies.

Annual Reports and corporate documents need to be smarter today in the way they look because shareholders and prospects demand more. Greater accountability, transparency and scope for feedback are just some of the issues. We stay at the edge of sensible corporate reporting. If you would like to see the future of the annual report hear what 300 senior business people thought in a research programme developed and run by United Notions in 2002 designed to explore evolving investor communication needs.

For iBA Technology, a company providing software solutions for the high growth, exploding healthcare market in Australia, we developed an exhibition display piece to convey the technical aspects of their complex business offering to a quasi-lay audience.

For British American Tobacco Australia we developed an information package based on the real experiences of graduates entering the employment market and considering this enterprise, which is under immense public scrutiny in an industry pressured by the media.
