Double S Design

A while ago I created an area on my website for Case Studies. Some of the projects I have worked on have been truly fascinating and important businesses to work for. This is one of my favourites:

NOTTSWA - doublesdesign Overhaul and redesign of Website | Nottinghamshire Women’s Aid CASE STUDY Nottinghamshire Women’s Aid website is a resource for women and Support Workers. The original website was ten years old and starting to become insecure and failing to run smoothly. On investigation it was apparent that the...

Sometimes the brief can change. The key to managing this scenario is communication. A logo is teamwork between client and designer, iterations can be subtle but a satisfactory result is when everyone is happy.

For a logo to work, it needs to answer the brief and have a vision. A logo can take on many design styles, this one is strong and bold and shows a subtle element of construction.

Logo design is my favourite part of setting a brand, get this right and everything flows from it.

My walk to work was a foggy one today. Looking grey in one direction and blue in the other. Ipswich is disappearing in this photo.

A foggy walk to work, wondering if I would reach the other side.

Me being nuts and glammed up for a wedding.

At Hintlesham Hall for a wedding. It’s been a long time during the pandemic just wearing trainers and trousers and no makeup.

Unique logos take thought and time to assess the direction. We create five for initial consideration, then build from there.

More than a takeaway, this logo was created for an established catering company.

Russian Doll logo. I have two sets of these, one is from Ukraine. They are all different and nest either five or 7 dolls.

MyCare AtHome new logo - two hearts, one butterfly.

Gainsborough Community Choir logo. This is a lovely choir that covers a range of well know songs from the 60s through to present day.

Cherry is such a lovely person, always happy and joyful. She is another of my all time favourite customers

This client works very hard on their business, always thinking of ways to get out to customers. This is why I enjoy working with them, we see eye-to-eye.

Fancy a holiday in Spain? This place is different! The Galicia area is a beautiful setting with both sea and mountains close by. Plus the sun of course. Another logo I loved doing.

A long time ago, when I was at school, I was in the Sudbury Gymnastic team. We did very well, that’s me on the left and my sister on the far right. It is interesting to say that we have both gone on to work in the creative industry.

A while ago we created a lion logo for and its lovely to see her wonderful clothing designs.

We love it when the client starts a new business and comes back to you for a new logo. Construction, girders, roof rafters - you can see a number of meanings in this logo.

Drillbits logo. The brief was to sum up a drill bit.

Blossom day, our pear tree is going bonkers again.

On the way to the pub! First time out this year and it was lively to meet up with friends.

I must be improving! Planted tulip bulbs at the right time and the right way up - and they grew!
