Our portfolio is more than just work. It is about providing a memorable experience that inspires or amazes somebody, wherever they are. There are many ways of increasing exposure to your audience. Here contains a few examples of how we have illuminated our client's projects.
The Home Boutique are suppliers of boutique furniture, home decor, gifts & ornaments, based in Cavendish Arcade, Buxton.
We proposed designing and developing an E-commerce site using the newly released CubeCart 5. We felt it would be important that the images do the talking for this website, so we suggested some ‘Roll Over’ features to help a user focus on products without leaving the page.
Spring Gardens Shopping Centre required A3 & A5 sized posters and flyers to promote an upcoming Halloween event. We were supplied a date and basic details and given freedom to create an eye catching design.
We sketched a draft design before converting our ideas to mainly vector based digital format. Having not quite achieved the desired focal point, we searched the web for a fetching centre piece and stumbled upon Latiffa Kerbal’s stunning Dracula vector. The vector file required some work with transparency issues, but the finished deliverable printed brilliantly.
JackHill Engineering have been successfully supplying fabrication and maintenance services to quarries and businesses around the Peak District for the last five years. Having concreted their reputation locally, they wanted some Marketing Materials and a website to ascertain a more professional, corporate look.
FreshSpark Creative were given two pages of a4 writing and a CD of images, which we used to create a 5 page website with a contact form, 2 sets of business cards, a set of presentation folders and unique email addresses for the JackHill team.
Lyndsey Patrick, a singer / songwriter based in Derbyshire approached us after seeing the contact site we had completed for Lucy Spraggan. We provided her with this page which presents the website user with a variety of different modular portals to other social networking sites.
Lyndsey required the site to be turned around quickly as she needed to seize a broadcasting opportunity. The project was signed off just 5 days after Lyndsey made her initial enquiry.
Majestik Art approached us wanting a central hub for their numerous profiles on different social networking sites across the web.
We provided a content management e-commerce system so products can be sold and payments taken online, included a rotating image carousel displaying different pieces of work and also plenty of information about Majestik Art, Animal Art, Pet Portraits and Artwork by Vicky Mycock.
The brief for this website focused on looking stylish and treading very carefully as not to detract from the experience famous names furniture provide at their shop based in Buxton. Their stock rotates at a lightning fast pace and this also had to be taken in to account. We proposed to update their existing one page website by redesigning and including new pages for their ‘Design Service’ and featured showcases demonstrating how they have furnished holiday lets, bars and hotels. We also included a blog so they can add weekly photographs of the ever changing store and get important information across. We also included detailed directions of how to find their store amongst other features.
This luxury flat based in Litton Mill needed a website to spread the word and enable site users to view and decide which available booking they would like to request.

Fran-Halsall.co.uk, E-Commerce system for award winning landscape photographer Fran Halsall.
Ciara Janson, best known for her role as Nicole owen in Hollyoaks, required a CMS website which served users with information about her, previous examples of her work captured in different formats of media and social network integration. Whilst the website met these requirements, we wanted to make sure that Ciara’s website fully immersed the viewer in brilliant photography and developed a unique interface which helped make the most of the imagery.

Talented Singer & Songwriter Lucy Spraggan required a contact site at short notice which complimented their activity on social networks such as SoundCloud, Youtube, Twitter and Facebook by making their content accessible centrally from the LucySpraggan.com site.
These business cards for UKCA took just one hour from brief to deliverable, one template with 12 different sets of details.
This work was created in collaboration with Lime Cube Marketing.
Character Kit is a Live Action Role Play equipment and lifestyle retailer who required an upgrade to their custom built e-commerce store in order to help manage stock and vend their goods.
We commissioned a good friend of FreshSpark creative to produce our logo using wood, hand picking timber with an interesting grain to be used for the visible texture of the word ‘fresh’.
This booking system was created in collaboration with Lime Cube Marketing, who we work closely with on a range of projects. UKCA (United Kingdom Cheerleading Association) deliver a range of courses, qualifications and organise events with different tiers of achievement. There are different styles of dance which appeal to different brackets of age group and the UKCA have enjoyed a steadily increasing audience.
Working closely with Lime Cube we planned and delivered a system capable of providing a database of groups & users containing information on bookings, events, qualifications and awards. This data can be managed in numerous ways and a report system helps website administrators choose which data they want to include when generating reports, invoices and taking payments.
We were commissioned to create this series of posters which needed to take a range of colours into consideration when designing the layout. The posters acted as templates for the promotion of courses which awarded progressive achievements in different styles of dance. This work was created in collaboration with Lime Cube Marketing.
Writing Matters – Creative Writing Sessions and Workshops – To Entertain, Encourage and Educate. We provided this Info Site to hold useful information and details of how to get in contact with Anstey Spraggan.
High Peak Renovations returned to us after enjoying successful results from their first run of flyers. For this run, we were briefed to promote the installation of luxury kitchens. They also requested a new run of business cards including the new logo & identity we had presented them.

They required an upgrade to their wordpress powered website which complimented their activity on social networks such as Vimeo, Youtube, Twitter and Flickr by making their content accessible centrally from the kingfilm.co.uk site.
DTLLS (Diploma in Teaching in the Life Long Teaching Sector) is a course which is delivered over 12 months and comprises face-to-face training days, 1:1 tutorials, workplace assessment, individual research, distance learning and the completion of 8 assignments.
Joan Patterson Associates required a system which was capable of serving resources methodically to suit various educational courses, booking appointments between students and teachers and ultimately providing a central hub in which students and teachers can interact and network in aid of progressing through the coursework.
We provided these posters to Peak Adrenaline as part of a Brand & Identity package. The original design was sketched and then matured digitally, paying close attention to confirming the rights to legitimately use the photography included. The business cards were also part of a Brand & Identity package. 8 Original designs were matured through 3 stages before Oliver selected his preferred Front/Back design.
We created these promotional Flyers for Samantha, a freelance hair stylist who had arranged to work in collaboration with a local salon.
