In the last couple of weeks we’ve been working closely with a marketing and design agency and launching websites for a gardening supplies company and an investment firm. More details and links to those soon. We’re ramping up efforts to support the RSPCA North West Middlesex with their shop-refit programme and dipping a toe into the Facebook App world with our first competition App.

A new wave of websites are currently being booked in and looking forward to getting cracking on those going into April.

3sg Printers offer a one-stop-shop for any printing need to National and Local customers. They provide everything from standard printing of business cards and letterheads, through to van graphics, signage and shop installations, through to full-scale branding of events and step-and-repeat graphics.

We work closely with 3sg and value their printing expertise and it was great to be asked to build a new website to showcase their products and services. The website makes use of their distinctive branding and is split into sections covering all of their key service offering and showcasing numerous examples of their work.

From the website customers can make enquiries and upload artwork. The site is fully content managed, allowing 3sg to upload new photos of completed jobs, add new pages and allows them full control of title tags and other content needed to encourage search engine optimisation.

The year has launched with a bang. We’re busy working on an interface design project for a major piece of financial software, finishing an educational game, finalising some event marketing materials and getting going on a series of new websites. Phew!

Everyone in North West London knows that Wenzel’s is the best place to go for fresh bread, lunches and delicious cakes and the Ech team grew up with the brand. As a result we were particularly delighted to be asked to build on their existing brand and develop a new website to showcase the range of products available and their chain of stores.

We have designed and built a new website which We have concentrated on using natural textures and a high impact font that works well in online and print form. The website allows customers to order cakes and food for functions, learn more about the company, apply for jobs and keep up to date with news and special offers. The website is fully content managed to allow Wenzel’s to add new products and information and is fully integrated with social media to tap into the wellspring of interest amongst the local community and to allow others to get involved with the brand.

Beyond the design and programming of the site, Ech have got involved in photography, packaging design and are now enjoying assisting with Wenzel’s shop re-design programme.

Style Research, providers of global investment research and portfolio analysis asked Ech to re-design their website. The new site developed for them maintains the clean, clear approach to the brand in line with the clarity of the investment information they provide.

In addition to use of a modern font style we have brought in a series of themed images to represent the areas described including use of the animal kingdom. The site is fully content managed, allowing Style Research to add and edit content, set up new pages, downloads, videos and blog items. We have developed a range of templates which ensure that additional content continues to use the design set for the site upon launch.

The Brendons group is a well-known chain of estate agents in the Ealing area. They cover the full range of services from residential sales and lettings, through to commercial acquisitions, surveying and auctions.

Ech have developed a series of 3 interlinked websites to help to showcase the range of services Brendons offer and to allow existing and prospective customers to easily get in contact and find out more about the properties on their books at any one time. The new websites are fully content managed, allowing Brendons to edit the pages and add news items. We carried out a custom integration of the property details system they use which means that in real time customers can search and view extensive details of all of their properties including viewing photos at large size within a custom template that is as clear to read as a printed sheet.

Green Light are masters of consumer insight, employing innovative approaches to understanding their clients’ markets and purchasing patterns.

Ech were asked to refresh their branding, tackling a new logo and then building from this to produce an updated website, PowerPoint templates and stationery.

The website features a clean, minimalist look to match the fresh, sharp approach Green Light bring. It is fully content managed and makes use of slideshow techniques and image carousels to subtly showcase a range of content within a limited vertical height, making use of the green square motif.

We have kept to a minimalist aesthetic in keeping with the clarity of the Apteligen approach.

Ech were inspired by the naturally beautiful setting to create a mountain themed design and to bring in elements of the warmth that the training can give through more organic elements like the butterfly. The website is content managed and makes use of a clear font type, emphasis on quotations and ease of navigation to get its message across.
