Client: God Conversations, Sydney, Australia Brief: To rebuild an existing WordPress website, to attract a greater audience, allow more flexibility and create a greater marketing platform for awareness, sales and promotion. We first met Tania from God Conversations a few years ago, but when our paths crossed again last year, when she came to Wanaka for a skiing holiday in 2018, naturally her website came up in conversation. A blog-focused website - with posts making up the homepage - the website had served her well, but it was no..

Working with some initial suggestions from Jayne and her team, we brain..

Client: Salmond Architecture, Wanaka Brief: To update an existing website to make it more modern, and also more user-friendly. Salmond Architecture approached us to update their existing website. It had become outdated, was not responsive and it was difficult to update. As well as creating a good-looking website, it needed to be easy to navigate, and Salmond Architecture wanted to be able to easily make content changes and update the portfolio. We created a design that was reflective of the high-quality houses that the company designs. Bri..

Client: Basecamp Adventures, Wanaka Brief: To design a dual-purpose trifold brochure to promote guided rock climbing and snowshoeing tours. Recently rebranded by Envy Web + Design , this was the first piece of printed marketing collateral that we put together for Basecamp Adventures. A bright colour palette of purples, pinks, blues and oranges created an excellent launchpad for this design, as well as some great images of the different activities. We wanted the brochure to be modern and attention grabbing, so we used the bold colours and i..

Client: Suzy Lee Artistry, Roxburgh Otago Brief: To create a luxurious and sophisticated website for a Central Otago-based Hair & Makeup Artist.

Hugely experienced in both bridal and commercial hair and makeup work, Suzy had a great selection of gorgeous images that ..

Cory and Bec from Aspiring Heliparts in Wanaka needed a website to showcase their company and services.

Client: Pristine Homes, Wanaka Brief: To create a fresh, clean and modern logo for a new cleaning and Airbnb/holiday home management and services company. Wanaka company Pristine Homes asked us to create a bright and fresh logo for their new company.  We wanted the logo to reflect the high standard of quality and service that Pristine Homes represents - and early on in the logo development stage we landed on stars as a key icon to incorporate into the design. In the hand sketching phase, this concept was a strong favour..

Client: Lawrence Golf Club, Lawrence, Otago Brief: To create a new responsive website for the historic Otago golf club, to promote the club and their modern clubrooms for venue hire. Lawrence Golf Club is the second oldest golf club in Otago, established in 1894.
