Thump Design & Web - What's New

JRA - Harlow Living website live

2011-05-26T02:18:00.000-07:00

The Joseph Rank Building was a rather grey looking building that has now been transformed by property developer Luminus Group to offer 132 one and two bedroom apartments. Thumped has been engaged to complete the transformation though an integrated marketing communications campaign. The first task, post research, was to develop a brand name for the site and logo. Harlow whilst often described as a new town (and by some as a bit grey) now has new distinctive, bright and cheerful logo. The concept was influenced by the fact that Harlow is known for its sculptures – there over 100 of them! and by the profiling of a youngish target audience. The property is located in the centre of town with immediate access to a vibrant city lifestyle.

The campaign in execution included sales literature, signage, decorated marketing suite and hoardings and micro website www.harlowliving.co.uk . Local property press advertising supported the launch and continues to drive footfall.

Service2 is a new car servicing company established just outside Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. The company is a collaboration between two car sales organisation with disparate names and brands, so creating a unifying brand for the new offering was particularly challenging. In the end through numerous strategy reviews the fact that they now provided servicing as well as car sales the client agreed with our recommendations that sometimes simple is best and the fact is they now offering servicing in addition to car sales – hence service too. Graphically this was developed to Service2. Executions included site signage, stationery and a website www.servicetwo.co.uk
