Boy, The Battleaxes menu looks delicious. Hopefully we’ll find out exactly how delicious, as we are just about to pack up shop and head down to the opening party now. There’s the pint I’ve been thinking about…

We have discovered a delightful little accessory by Lufdesign. Not only does it keep your wires in order in a visually pleasant way, profits made from this product go towards an ecological campaign.

Work for the opening of The Battleaxes pub is done and dusted. We’re very excited as we’ve been well involved – from designing the logo, business cards and menus to exterior and interior signage (brilliantly printed and installed by N3 Display Graphics).

We have finished our brochure. It’s turned out rather nice. We’re doing a mix of print and digital marketing at the moment, as many of our clients really like the tactile side of actually holding a piece of print. If you’d like a brochure, just drop us a line at studio@bluinc.co.uk and we’ll pop one in the post. If you don’t want to touch any paper, then you can see what we are about at bluinc.co.uk.

Traveller Not Tourist needed a logo for their new charity, Pachawawas (‘children of the earth’ in Peruvian). The charity has been set up in the UK as a vehicle for fundraising and marketing to support the amazing work that Traveller Not Tourist carry out with children in Peru.

If you are looking to do some volunteer work or would like a different kind of adventure to Peru, you should check out the tours on the Traveller Not Tourist web site.

The Battleaxes pub in Wraxall is going to reopen on September 22nd 2010 under Flatcappers management. As one of our favourite clients, Flatcappers, who also run The Castle and The Bell, have won awards for their wonderful refurbishments and also appear in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide 2010 – the food is something else as well.

Alongside designing the new Battleaxes identity, logo, menus and stationery, we have designed and produced the internal and external signage – this even includes Yvette having to Hammerite new swing sign frames (see pic above). We are not afraid of getting our baby soft computer hands dirty!

Look forward to the signage going up (watch this space) and the pub opening – a well earned pint is on the horizon.

We designed a new identity for textile and surface pattern designer, Anna Gravelle – she liked it so much, we were then asked to design and build a web site to show case her studio’s work. Check out annagravelle.com, she’s good.
