Our Work
Differentia offers a wide variety of work and styles. Of course we can provide the usual graphic design services from logos and branding to brochures and newsletters. The areas in which we work include: Interpretation (interpretation panels and plans), Logos and Branding, Brochures and Leaflets, Newsletters and Stationery, Exhibition and Display.
Interpretation: We have produced a wide variety of panels and interpretation for organisations and groups. This includes outdoor panels, tactile panels, wooden sculptures, nature based panels, heritage based panels and full interpretation plans. We have worked in urban locations installing interpretation panels using GRP, Steel Etched and Bronze cast outdoor panels and artworks. We have also considerable experience in rural locations with a track record working for public bodies such as Natural England and Scottish Natural Heritage as well as Community Groups.
Landscape Design: We have an experienced and qualified landscape architect assisting with both the interpretation work as well as producing landscape designs for parks, play areas, visual impact assessments, masterplanning and a range of small to medium size landscape schemes. We work as a team to create a full design and interpretation package for Heritage Lottery funded Parks and Public spaces. Small scale schemes include garden designs, allotment design, school nursery gardens and community spaces.
Print and Design: We produce designs for a variety of printed material and have worked on brochures, education packs, leaflets, flyers, newsletters, mailers and books. We advise on aspects of print including the use of vegetable based inks and recycled papers. We provide branding and logos solutions for the use on printed material and websites. We digitise the final design and create a suite of stationery and branding guidelines for the client to use and be able to produce their own literature themselves, including providing templates in Word for inhouse printing.
Illustration: We work mainly in watercolour producing wildlife illustration, buildings and maps. Our wildlife illustrations of British birds, animals, insects and plants are used in our interpretation panels. We also provide wildlife illustration through our own wildlife illustration website for the use of Community Groups and Public Bodies to download and use on their own literature and interpretation panels.
Websites: We design websites for individuals, heritage organisations, charities and community organisations. We use Open Source Content Management Systems. We provide a full website hosting package to provide a solid platform for a business or community group to develop an online presence using our website design and website tools. It is important that the websites we provide a sustainable allowing the client without any further input from us or other website designer or website programmer.
