Less is more

From the earliest cave paintings to the modern digital pixel art, visual communications have been used to bridge the universal language barriers between cultures and even species.

A wasp informs you of his sting with his livery, the same way a bottle of bleach warns you of it's dangers with a 'corrosive' symbol. Taking notes from mother nature—the master of visual communication—we can speak without words.

Making an impact

Just as we'd smarten our appearance for an important meeting, giving the right visual impression for your business is crucial.

Design is about much more than just looking good... if there's a message to convey, a design must encompass a character which fits the message or tone of the communication, whether it be a simple business card or a 48-sheet poster.

Simple, clear and straight to the point... it works wonders.

From little acorns, oak trees grow

The heart of any good design is a good solid concept or idea. These little ideas need nurturing and communicating effectively. That's why at Pixelmakers, we still use very traditional methods to arrive at final designs: Pencil and paper!

Creative, distinct and clear thoughts with applied logic result in concepts and visuals which carry through to final artwork. Without the interim design stages, the final result is often full of flaws and oversights. Which is why we take our time to get the big picture before we leap into the final job.

The result? Great designs, excellent communication and productive, functional results.

Well, that's what we'd expect, isn't it?

You'd think so... but many design agencies work on a throughput basis, and the initial design stages are overlooked. Projects go 'straight to production' without any thought, and the result can be that your initial proofs lack thought or punch.

With modern offices containing computers loaded with 'design' software, almost anyone feels they can be a designer. Our view on this is, giving an engineer a scalpel doesn't mean they can perform open heart surgery. The tools of the trade are just a means to an ends... the ideas and creativity flow from the designer, not the pen, paper or computer application.

At Pixelmakers, there's no 'office juniors' to take on your work. Every project is handled with dedication and passion, from a simple logo design right through to a complex branded campaign.
