| Branding: Levenshulme Inspire |
| The Client:
The United Reformed Church in Levenshulme, Manchester has been transformed into an exciting and inclusive community resource, called "Levenshulme Inspire".
Levenshulme Inspire is a collective of organisations, based in South Manchester. Great Places, YASP, The United Reformed Church, All FM and many others have come together to provide a unique resource for the people of Levenshulme. |
|
The Project:
I created a positive, feel-good brand to reflect the client's values. I also designed the centre's signage, merchandise and all the pre-launch printed media.
I used the Inspire element from the main logo and the positive, upward-facing text as a basis for each of Inspire's sub-brands. All FM became "Inspire Radio", Great Places became "Living Inspire" and YASP Cafe became "Inspire Cafe".
The church itself also had a design makeover, with a brand new "Worship Inspire" brand being created for their signage and print media. |

The Levenshulme Inspire logo was designed to give the organisation a bright, optimistic and positive image. The clash of candy colours was inspired by the area of Levenshulme and its people. I wanted to represent the way that people and cultures that would not normally come together, such as European, African, Asian and Middle Eastern residents, live side by side in a happy and respectful community. |
Each sub-brand uses a colour from the main Inspire logo. The Cafe Inspire logo was designed using the lime green colour from the letter N in the main logo. The spire was kept black to show off the bright colour of the Cafe part of the logo and the YASP logo was added to represent the Youth Advice and Support Programme, who run the cafe within the Inspire Centre. |

 |
Enterprise & Inspire is the ethos behind the new business incubation centre, run by Bubble Enterprises at the Inspire Centre. They help new businesses get off the ground with good advice and practical help. The logo uses their mid-green colour scheme and features spires that symbolise these businesses, growing wings and flying away. |
Great Places, the Manchester based housing group, work in neighbourhoods all over the north to help them thrive, shine and be truly great places to live. They have a number of community housing units at the Inspire Centre and wanted a brand that would fit in with the overall scheme. I used a keychain motif to reinforce the brand. |

 |
The Worship Inspire logo was intended to symbolise peace and harmony, hence the olive branch motif. Levenshulme Inspire's organisers were keen to have a logo that would have a spiritual feel, yet inclusive to people of all faiths, including those who are not religious. |
All FM is the community radio station at the heart of Levenshulme; sharing the Levenshulme Inspire space. Their logo and tagline have been incorporated into the Inspire design scheme using the spire as a mast emitting radio waves. |

The Real People
Legendary indie band The Real People are back with a brand new line-up and a great new album. They needed a brand that would reflect their roots, their influences and their attitude.
I gave them a beaten up mod-inspired logo before designing the official band website and merchandise. |
Levenshulme Inspire
The United Reformed Church in Levenshulme, Manchester has been transformed into an exciting and inclusive community resource. I created a positive, feel-good brand to reflect the client's values.
I also designed the centre's signage, merchandise and all the pre-launch printed media. |
Student Survival Guide
This is an essential piece of kit for any new student arriving in Liverpool. I gave this publication a distinctive, urban identity that has already proved to be popular with the target market.
I also created the Student Survival Property Guide for this client, using the main brand as a starting point. |

Lycoplus Extra
This client required a retail brand for their health-giving product, which contains tomato lycopene.
I used the tomato as a starting point and created a brand with a fresh feel that makes Lycoplus Extra stand out from their competitors on the supermarket shelves. |
Steven Mears Group
The Steven Mears Group is a family run group of companies servicing the funeral business. They needed a brand that could bring together the various arms of the organisation, from flowers to international repatriation.
They chose a simple, elegant rose design and a bold colour scheme. |
Right Path
Right Path is a range of fun, engaging resources and activities for students, teaching staff and anyone who supports students’ learning.
I gave the brand a road sign theme, reflecting the idea that the students are embarking on an educational journey. |

Birmingham Imbibers
This client was looking for a brand that would convey the fun that can be had spending your time tasting, learning about and generally enjoying good wine.
I chose a deep red colour scheme and an informal, faux-classical font, along with a wine stain motif that can be applied across a wide range of media. |
|
Resource Development Centre
The Resource Development Centre specialise in sales and negotiation training, at the highest level. They are well-respected and have a number of blue chip clients in their portfolio.
They needed to refresh their identity with a new brand, colour scheme and website. I also provided a range of printed media. |
|
NUPG
The Northern Underwater Photography Group is, as you might expect, a group of photographers who get together to share their interest in all things aquatic.
I provided a website that could be easily managed by group members and a fresh logo, inspired by the shape of a camera lens, that gives the group a real identity. |
