Bridport based stove manufactures Arada initially came to AztecMedia looking for a logo and flyer design for their Signature Inset range and following the success of this we were asked to create a new logo and brochure for their top of the range Aarrow wood and multifuel stoves. The design had to be product led with full page images and clear and concise information on accessories and heat output etc. Arada supplied us with the room set images and we did the rest! As would be expected with a product of this type it was important that the colours throughout the brochure were ‘warm’ in nature so we went for varying beiges with the hard contrasting deep Aarrow red which has become the brands corporate colour. It’s always good to work with new clients and Arada have been no exception. We have just completed the brochure of their Hamlet range and are starting two further brochures within the next week.

Tuscanor Lighting contacted AztecMedia about producing a lighting catalogue for them with the intention of getting it printed. With limited funds we recommended that they would be better of having a digital eBook which they could distribute world wide via an e-flyer promoting a URL link to view the digital eBook online. This saved them the expensive print and distribution costs, but allowed the end user to view quickly the products and print selected pages directly from the eBook. We also made the website address with the eBook a active link which when clicked took the user directly to www.tuscanorlighting.co.uk. The advantage of producing an eBook over print is the carbon foot print you save and the flexibility of being able to distribute it world wide at a touch of a button. Also when using the eBook you have the function to view the pages full screen on you computer, zoom in to view product and text information larger making it very user friendly. This eBook was produced using our Aztec Media Player software.

Futurform Office Solutions in Frome approached AztecMedia to put together a proposal for a new group brand logo and website design. They wanted a bespoke design which could be used across their five divisions. The logo needed to stand alone, with each of the five areas having it own stamp on the logo for departmental use. We achieved this with a colour coded system, keeping it simple and easy to reproduce in any format. The logo was approved and we are currently working on the new website.

Original Picture Finished Ad Campaign
AztecMedia’s client Saucony, wanted to take one of the photos from the 2009 spring photo shoot we did at Lanes Hotel in West Coker and use it in a winter Ad campaign. To keep up with the competitions P.O.S we decided to do something a little different with the New Saucony Visi-Pro Banners. Rather than using traditional laminated poster paper, the A0 banners were printed on a plastic mesh material. The great thing about this is that when they are hung in store windows they still let a certain amount of light in. Brilliant! The design itself uses a shot we took on the cold February photoshoot with the strapline “It’s the only thing to be seen in this season”. Hi Vis is no longer low tech…

Woodlands Retreats needed a website for their two unique converted holiday farms set in the Somerset countryside. AztecMedia was asked to create a whole brand from scratch to give the user a feel of exclusive luxury – a new logo design, stationery and a self managed e-commerce website. We designed and built the website writing bespoke coding to make the website work in such a way that the user could add lots of variables when booking a holiday. This was achieved by working closely with the customer during the development of the website. AztecMedia was also responsible for the land based internal and external photography with the use of our Skycam Elevated Photography.
We have also produced in-house a video of one of the holiday farms which compliments the style of the property. Using our Virtual Tour Camera we photographed every room so that the website user could enjoy a 360 degree experience of the property before booking their holiday. We provide all these services in-house so everything the client required could be supplied by one source.
“We have created exclusive luxury accommodation in the tranquil surroundings of rural Somerset, available for either short breaks or longer stays as self catered or if you prefer our talented chef to take the strain for you, fully catered. They offer the ideal escape – from celebrating that lively special occasion to putting your feet up and relaxing on the perfect family holiday.”
