Eyeform, an accredited consultant dispensing optician and ocular prosthesis specialist in the heart of London’s West End, approached us for a new identity. Kanti Fatania, owner and professional consultant, also specialises in the creation of bespoke artificial eyes. He wanted a logo that reflected the beauty of the eye and the beauty of his work. A new website will be unveiled in the near future.

We got two good reviews recently: A filth of starlings and A drove of bullocks got ‘Editor’s choice’ in INIS (the Children’s Books Ireland magazine), and A drove of bullocks has made it into the glossy parenting magazine, Junior, as a good holiday read. Click here to read both articles.

Phlow is a Sydney-based online consultancy who aim to simplify and consolidate the technical aspects of creating an online presence, allowing the focus on the real creative work to flow. We came up with this identity to reflect their seamless offering.

Together, they have teamed up to create ‘Tongue Tide’ – a bi-monthly showcase of some of the most dynamic and talented performance poets from around the UK, hosted in Whitstable.

We’ve got a great 4 star review for our book, Little Miss Muffet and other rhymes, in Books For Keeps – the March edition of the children’s book magazine. “Divergent, playful, innovative, quirky, expansive, are just a handful of the many adjectives that spring to mind after a first perusal of this deceptively simple book of rhymes…” Read more.

We have just published a new book of nursery rhymes – Little Miss Muffet and other rhymes. In fact this was the very first book we worked on, but not the first to be published. We thought now would be a good time given the current interest in nursery rhymes in the media and apparent waning in interest by the public. We hope that our contemporary and punchy graphics will give the much-loved and traditional nursery rhymes a new lease of life. View book.

Manston Airport, situated just outside of Ramsgate in Kent, is proposing to increase its quota of night flights. This will mean noisy planes flying directly over Ramsgate throughout the night.
