SERVICE · DESIGN & ILLUSTRATION

Two things. Done properly.

Beer labels. Printed Materials. Two specialisms we love doing and a small list of trusted illustrators we’ll refer you to for anything else. We’d rather send you to the right person than be the wrong one.

01 / 04 The two specialisms

Two specialisms.

The two things we love drawing. We’ve done these for years, we’ve got the references on the wall, and we’ll happily talk through hops and badges for as long as you have.

SPECIALISM 01
BREWERY & BEER

Beer labels. Front, side, & can-end.

Hand-drawn illustration, hand-set type, a font that nods to the brewery’s town without trying too hard. We work in print-CMYK from day one and we’ll talk to your printer. We’ve done one-off seasonals and full ranges.

  • , Illustrated front label
  • , Side label + barcode
  • , Can-end / crown-cork
  • , Print-ready CMYK, 300dpi
  • , Tap badge as bonus

SPECIALISM 02
NON-LEAGUE & AMATEUR

Football Stuff Brochures. Banner Stands. Whatever really.

Heritage-feel club crests, classic numbering, programme covers and kit-design treatments. We’ve done it for grassroots clubs across the East Midlands. Mostly because we asked if we could.

02 / 04 Everything else · The honest list

Yes. No. Or who to call.

Outside the two specialisms, we’ll usually refer. There’s a small list we’ll take on for existing clients, and a bigger list we won’t. We’ve got two illustrators on speed dial, we’d rather hand you off well than do it badly.

Yes, we’ll do it. THREE SHAPES
  • 01
    Logo refresh

    For an existing web/SEO client only. We'd rather get it right than fast.

  • 02
    Print collateral

    Brochures, business cards, exhibition graphics, if we built the brand or run your social.

  • 03
    Packaging illustration

    Beer-adjacent things. Spirits, soft-drink, hot sauce, condiment.

We’ll refer. FOUR THINGS · GOOD HANDS
  • 01
    Logo design from scratch

    We have two illustrators we'll point you at, much faster and fresher than us.

  • 02
    Pitch decks

    Specialist game. We know two people who do it brilliantly.

  • 03
    Branded merchandise

    Send to a print-on-demand house with the brand assets we've given you.

  • 04
    Big-system rebrands

    We're not the right shop. We'll happily introduce you to one.

03 / 04 The shape · Project-based, not retainer

Project by project.

No retainers. No monthly. Each project quoted, half-up-front, half-on-delivery. Three rounds of revisions baked in, it's not one design and done!

What are we thinking?

The real stuff. Not “10 tips to boost engagement” clickbait. We call out the BS in our industry and share what twenty years of doing this has taught us. Here’s the last few.
