The force is strong with this one

If there's ever a time to be certain of slightly more viewers than a BBC Cornwall documentary at 2am it's the Super Bowl in the US. Apparently a 30 second slot costs $3 million so advertisers better get it right and reach people quicker than they can eat their hot dogs. VW get it absolutely right on the money and appeal to millions of men across the world in an instant.

Have fun with your switches...

Or walls for that matter.

 

A fresh country view...

Country View Cottages offer excellent Self Catering Accommodation in Cornwall. Their cottages are situated inland but perfectly placed to explore Cornwall. There are four locations which contain clusters of cottages: Pennance Barns (Falmouth),Tresooth Cottages (Mawnan Smith), Carnebo Barns (Gonnhavern), Trevarren Woolas (nr Newquay.) They are all barn conversions and have charm, quirks and character that you would expect from a traditional Cornish home...

Country View approached us as they were looking to refresh and renew their current brand and apply this to a new website that allowed direct bookings for their cottages and conveyed a personality and service that wouldn't be found from the larger accommodation providers.

The new brand is inspired by the doves that can be found at Tresooth and the leafy aspect that each of the cottages offer. Photography was essential to capture the quality of the surroundings and Matt Jessop and our stylist Natalie Bennet have bought the spaces to life. 

The website combines leaf textures and overlays to integrate the brand language created and emphasise once again the green surroundings of the cottages. The use of large images in the galleries keep a strong focus on the properties and the personal service Country View provide.

A Wild, Cornish Retreat...

Simon Toft and Rosie Hadden have created a place where visitors can experience the very best of Cornwall - its amazing scenery, historic landscape, creative tradition and fantastic food and drink, without compromising its precious natural resources.  

This retreat is made up of a collection of holiday cottages, which generate their own energy and water - making them one of the most eco friendly holiday destinations in the country. 

Launched last week, the new website is inspired by the open, unique surroundings of the site and even uses Rosie's own illustrations to reinforce the notion of being close to nature. The website has also been built using our CMS system, meaning that Rosie can update her own images and keep in line with the changing seasons!

Cornish Mead Company gets Inked!

We have been receiving some good press for the tattoo inspired packaging refresh we produced for the Cornish Mead Company in Penzance. Since our write up from The Drum the story has been picked up by a fair number of websites, including Pitch Design from the Design Week group, design blog Core77, TrendHunter.com, and best of all in our opinion the website for tattoo magazine Inked!
