Ribble Valley Tourism

Ribble Valley has rolling hills historic towns and gastropubs galore, and we have worked with the Tourism Association to promote and enhance Ribble Valley’s tourism offer, this includes:

Visitor Guide – Since 2018 we have worked hard to moved away from the traditional tourism brochure and instead implemented a coffee table magazine. In addition to design we also advise our client on editorial content and photography a key examples of this is the inclusion of the photography competition from visitors and resident on Facebook.

Walks with Taste – This project is aimed at getting people who traditionally would not explore the Ribble Valley countryside to do just that, with a reward of incredible food. Each walk is a circular walk that starts and ends at one of Ribble Valley’s finest eateries, and there are walks to suit all levels.

Visit Lancashire Guides

Since 2015 we have worked closely with Marketing Lancashire on many of their visitor guides, each guide not only has a different theme but also a different target audience. These include:

Annual Visitor Guide – The annual visitor guide aims to be a catchall, both in terms of what Lancashire has to offer and the visitors it aims to attract. To broaden it’s appeal we moved away from traditional visit to guide style to a magazine style with editorial content.

Summer Guide (digital only) – School out, the sun is shining (sometimes) and parents are looking to make the most of the summer the design within this guide has a much more fun and dynamic approach to reflect the season.

Autumn Guide (digital only) – The weather is getting cooler, the leaves changing colour and cosy weekend away are beckoning. This short breaks guide is aimed at couples looking to get away for the everyday and experience the incredible.

Group Travel Guide – Lancashire offers more than just a holiday. Day trips and group tours offer a perfect way to get behind the scenes, get your hands dirty and experience the real Lancashire.

Ingestre Orangery

The aim behind the restoration of Ingestre Orangery wants to bring the building back from disuse, highlight is simple beauty and ensure it continuing use for the future. We designed and developed the website with this in mind; large images, simple layout and clean implementation of the brand ensure the website looking fresh and make it easy to be updated by the volunteers at the orangery. 

Salt Ayre Leisure Centre

Salt Ayre Leisure Centre has recently begun a refurbishment project and we were approached to help rebrand the centre in line with the new facilities and leisure offer. The centre boasts: a state of the art gym, thermal spa (Tranquil), indoor climbing walls, multilevel soft pay, swimming pool, CrossFit gym, immersive cycling studio, open air play zone with balanceability and more. With such a wide variety of activities and target audiences we developed a simple strong brand for the centre its self that allowed for sub-brands to easily fit below. 

Ribble Valley Yoga

Flexibility and control are important in both graphic design and yoga. The brief of this design was calm clean and trustworthy to reflect the aims and ambitions of the small business. The clients are both certified Iyenga Yoga Instructors, having studied in India, and saw this as their USP, setting them above many other yoga studios.

The clean lines in simple roundel keep the logo looking clear and professional, while the icon of the Lotus flower represents the growth and beauty at the core of buddhism and yoga.

Alongside the brand we also developed a website and implemented signage for the yoga studio.

Epworth Old Rectory

As is the birthplace of Methodism and home to Wesley family, Epworth Old Rectory is steeped in history and religion. It was impossible to tell the story of the rectory without telling the story of the family, and each family member’s story interlinked and overlaps with other family members. 

The brand we developed reflects this with reference to stained-glass windows and it’s interconnection of the people that call the rectory home.

The four figures in the brand represent Samuel, Susanna, John and Charles Wesley the key figures in the family and in Methodism itself. We didn’t want to leave out of the other family members, so individual silhouettes were created to tell their story.

Alongside the brand we developed a website and commissioned photography.
