In town…

I was in town yesterday for a few meetings.

Bumped into these guys while waiting to cross the road – something I haven’t witnessed since I was a lad.

Striking concept and illo’ for a advert for stretchy plasters.

Via I believe in advertising.

A very Merry Christmas!

As 2011 draws to a chilly close, we hope you all have a warm and wonderful break over Christmas. Thank you for your support over the past 12 months and we wish you all a Happy New Year.

Movember… the shave

It’s all over, but there is still quite a bit of facial hair around the office. I think a few of the guys have become quite attached to their lip warmers.

New Dezrez site launch

chris — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 13:39:30 +0000

Our good friends, Dezrez, have just launched their brand new site.

And we designed it for them.

Dezrez have THE best software for estate agency sales and letting available. We’ve been working with them as partners for many years, designing and building the websites that house their technology. In fact, we were in University with the founders of Dezrez!

We’ve seen a real shift, estate agents are now embracing Open Source CMS platforms including Drupal, WordPress and Umbraco and well as S8080’s own .NET content management system if they really want to customise things.

We worked very closely with Dezrez, initially on their UX design and wireframes and then onto the creative phase of the project. they made very good use of our in-house illustration team to give the site a personality all of it’s own.

As always, it’s so satisfying for an agency to work with a client who is passionate about the project. Every meeting and session we had left us buzzing with ideas, it’s the very best way to work on a creative project like this. Everyone feels so involved and comfortable tabling their ideas.

The new site is a huge success – and a success they thoroughly deserve.

The last word goes to Wilf…

Wilf Lewis, Dezrez

Movember… week 1

A few of the guys are going for it during November : { )

We made The Sun…

From The Sun website… a great photo of David Cameron sitting in front of a graphic our creative team designed for the Department of Energy and Climate Change.

I wonder if he looked at it when he walked in to the room and said to himself “Hmm, that looks like it’s from the same team who designed my website”.

No. probably not.

Nice to see our work under the gaze of the World’s press though.
