Examples of our work

Graphic design

Graphic design is all about visually shaping ideas across various media to convey a message. With sharp designs and engaging concepts, we ensure the right look and feel that creates the desired associations for your target audience. Our team of eight designers brings expertise in design, concept development, illustration, programming, and animation. Here are three examples of our work:

Case: Parkstad Limburg

Goal: Conveying the message

For seven municipalities, we distilled the complex subject of heat transition visions into a clear core message, making it both understandable and visually appealing for residents.

Goal: Generating more awareness

For the Crossborder Business Development research group, we boosted advisory requests from companies with cross-border ambitions. This involved developing the message (name, tagline, logo, and copywriting), optimizing existing communication materials (website, avatars, and icons), and creating effective tools (campaign, press release, and animation). The result was the Germany Scan.
