Jarlo London Spring/Summer 2011

Just received my copy of the JARLO London Spring/Summer 2011 brochure and it's looking pretty good if I do say so myself.

Commissioned by the team at Fluorescent PR to produce this London based label's look book, the only brief was to "keep it simple & let the clothes do the talking."

Working within this open brief and the vast space the oversized format, the challenge was to create the right balance between the imagery, space and copy without overemphasising any one element.

The resulting layout is made up of a series of full bleed and framed images with minimal annotation. This creates both impact, intrigue and balance within the pages.

In addition to the brochure I was also asked to create a selection of posters from the stunning retro photography by Luke Newman and a "mood board" layout for JARLO's exhibition stand showcasing their new collection.

New Online Environment for Nockolds LLP

Working at Beaver Design, we've just set the new incarnation of nockolds.co.uk live.

It's been a labour of love for me really, as my initial involvement in 2006 was one of my first steps into the world of the web design so it was great that the marketing team at Nockolds LLP asked us to take the interface forward.

This new evolution combines a free yet considered interface with an alternate view on a structured layout, meaning we were able to retain tried and tested techniques but manifest them in a new way.

The Beaver team also worked alongside Nockolds Solicitors to enhance the way they manage their online content, adding a news blog for press updates, document archive for industry papers and events calendar.

All in all these developments bring nockolds.co.uk bang up to date creating an interesting and informative legal environment for clients and solicitors alike.
