Graphic Design for Printed Media

The process of designing for print begins with communication. The first step in a Print Design project is to understand the desired outcome. Whether you need a business card design, company logo, corporate brochure, business stationery, presentation folder, catalog or multiple projects, each collateral piece should achieve the goal of marketing or selling a product or service.

• What do you want your design project to accomplish?
• Who are you selling to?
• How do you want to be perceived by your target audience?
• What is your unique selling point?

With a clear understanding of your marketing objectives, the designer can now move on to selecting the color scheme, fonts and concept. A composite is developed that will integrate your marketing objectives with a design style that will appeal to your target audience. This corporate identity or branding will encompass a look and feel for your business that communicates a specific visual message.

Custom Logo Design

There is an obvious reason to have a business logo…
… to distinguish your products or services from your competitor's.
An underlying reason is to associate your symbol or mark with a concept.

With a custom logo design you are creating a business identity. A company logo should visually communicate your unique message. The concept communicated can be straight forward or something that requires some intuition on the part of the viewer. As long as the design concept has the visual appeal to earn a second or third “glance”, an abstract or conceptual approach can be used.

• The concept of “Less is More” definitely applies to a Logo Design. A simple, uncluttered look will be more appealing to the viewer.
• A logo needs to be proportioned so that it remains legible when enlarged for a billboard or reduced to fit onto your business card.
• A logo should transfer easily to black and white (for use in print advertising, fax cover sheets, embossing, etc.)

What to expect from your Logo Design Service:

• A design concept that you and your customers can identify with. Your business logo design should appeal to the general audience that you are targeting
• Your logo designer should take time to learn about your business and your marketing objectives.
• An effective business logo will generate a "look and feel" that you want customers to understand and respond to.
