Karen Blackwell is an experienced beauty therapist who shares premises with a hair salon. She feels her business The Sanctuary needs a logo that reflects the marine-based products she uses, and her holistic approach as a therapist. The logo also needs to capture the peaceful ambiance she creates in her work space. By rolling out the logo across all her business stationery, signage, and advertising we were able to give continuity and a strong sense of identity. Click this link to jump to the Gallery to view examples  

"Sarah provides a professional, competitive and prompt service. She understands and interprets my business requirements, and her designs reflect the essence of my practice."

Anne and Tony Lapping wanted to sell the French rural manor house they had lovingly renovated. They needed a brochure to send out to prospective buyers, either directly or via agents. As well as a comprehensive guide to the house, the brochure had to stand out from the run-of-the mill sales brochure produced by estate agents. The project involved every aspect of the design process - layout, photography, copywriting, drawing plans, and producing the final digital file to send to the printers. A sale website was later produced from an adapted brochure design, with techno help from web designer Tom Ashmore (see the Website design page for more info and the Gallery page for screen shots).

"We found Sarah to be a true professional, exercising great interest and patience in everything we asked her to do."

Wendy Jackson qualified as a homeopath in 2006 and she felt a comprehensive business identity would to help launch her professional career. She had already called her practice The Healing Tree and wanted the image of a tree in the logo. Intuitive graphic artist, Hannah Bullen created the unique Celtic knotwork tree logo, which was taken through all Wendy's company material. The design of the leaflet was particularly challenging as there was a lot of information to communicate. The design solution is a two-sided Z fold A4 leaflet; one side simply explains what homeopathy is, whilst the other side reassuringly leads the reader through the homeopathic treatment process. We took the corporate look onto her website, however Wendy is now in charge of updating and adding to her site whenever she wants. This is a very simple process using one of the Mr.Site website creation packages. Check out their website for more details and pricing.

"Sarah's amazing knowledge and expertise produces outstanding results. She is an absolute joy to work with. She is professional and inspirational, and I would recommend her to anyone."
