brief creation
The brief is the starting point for most projects; the better the initial brief the better the outcome of the project.
With this in mind, we have created an easy-to-follow briefing document, which helps produce an accurate and clear brief to define the project and the design process.
The aim of our brief creation service is to ensure that the final product is a 100 per cent match to the business requirements.
rapid concept creation
To get a project off the ground as quickly as possible, it is important to get conceptual visuals while the project is still fresh in stakeholders minds.
We quickly develop concepts based on three routes: a conservative route to cover the brief’s requirements; an innovative route which applies more thought around how the brief is met; and a challenging route which questions whether there is a better or different way of achieving the desired results.
rich internet application design
Whether creating a small widget or developing a portal used by millions daily, the use of the latest in web technology, such as Adobe Flex and Adobe Air coupled with rich real-time data can really enhance the user experience.
We can design and build applications that sit within the normal web browser environment or on the desktop of the end user. They can be built as standalones, or seamlessly implemented into an existing site.
mobile device design
The use of mobiles for using the internet is quickly becoming more and more common. Therefore it is essential to consider mobile devices as a future part of any online services.
Our mobile device design service produces mobile-friendly concepts for applications and versions of existing websites. This includes creating applications for Apple iPhone and Goggle G1 plus other Flash lite enabled mobiles.
social networking integration
The use of social media websites is an excellent way to reach a wider or newer audience. Using these social media websites and tools can greatly improve a website’s day-to-day traffic as well as its search engine page rank.
We produce concept designs for the integration of social networking sites and tools such as Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, Flickr, blogs and forums.
email marketing
Email marketing is a very cost-effective and powerful tool with incredibly good ROIs. Our email marketing service is takes care of all parts of the process from email design to campaign delivery and tracking of results.
advertising
Our advertising service covers everything for an online advertising campaign from creative concepts right through to the production.
Our services include production of standard web banners and rich media (eg. Flash or specialist rich media platforms such as Eyeblaster).
branding
Creating a great brand is more than just creating a logo. Because of this, our branding service creates brand identities that work across all customer touchpoints from logos to stationery, signage to websites.
We can also create brand guidelines to help police and manage a brand to keep it communicating the right message, whatever the media.
full website design
Often, to improve a website’s performance and user experience, or to keep up with competition or latest web technologies, it is necessary to re-design the site from scratch.
Our full website design/re-design service incorporates all our other services to conduct a ground-up website strategy.
We start with a brief, then a concept phase, followed by full asset design and delivery including guidelines for the build team.
design guidelines
Design guidelines are vital to ensure correct interpretation by build teams. CustX design guidelines ensure 100% design to build match thus minimising delays in the development process.
wireframes
Wireframes form a fundamental step in the design and build process. They provide a bridge between the design visualisation and the information architecture of the finished website or application.
