House doctor service!

Changing times means changing our services, and so we are expanding our house doctor service.
For most of us our homes are the biggest investment of our lives and we need to make the most of them. Staging a property for sale means making the most of its best features, maximising the sense of space and light, and presenting it in a way which appeals to the maximum number of potential buyers.

Buying a property is mainly an emotional not rational purchase and we are specialists in taking a property and giving it buyer appeal.

We can offer a flexible service to suit your needs, whether you just require an initial verbal consultation and advice, right through to project managing the entire makeover for you with trusted suppliers, we have a service to help make the most of your property.


It could even make a difference to the asking price! Not convinced? Here's an article from the Telegraph:

So if your home has been on the market for a while or you're thinking of selling (or it's in need of a simple spruce-up) just drop us a line.

Hospitality Cornwall website now live!

We have launched the fabulous Hospitality Cornwall group website!

As the culminating piece in a brand evaluation and development exercise we are all very excited to see it up and running. The project began as a brand investigation for my other company Approach Agency with client Dan Trotter (Faronpark Ltd) and draws to a close utilising my McOwen+Banks design skills to create a fitting website for the new brand.

Creating an overarching brand ethos and rolling that out across the name, identity and all communication (including staff training) has been a great project to be involved in. The final element of the website creation, design and implementation was made possible working with our fab friends at Web Footed designs and results in a swathe of work we can all be proud of.

Read the brief write up in the news section: here
Or if you're in the Newquay area and fancy a fabulous meal head to the website to find out about their restaurants and rooms.

Coast to coast creatives - now in East Sussex!

We've recently followed the work flow back up to the South East - couldn't quite release the sea though so have set our stall out in the beautiful town of Rye.
Still retained by clients in Cornwall we get to pop back every so often which gives us the best of both worlds. Looking forward to finding new opportunities and friends in Sussex.
Pete has already started work on a fabulous, Grade 2 listed flint house just outside Brighton and I've been setting creative minds a buzz with work for Suzuki as well as doing great things for The Bay and Hotel Penzance. So we're truly a coast-to-coast creative offering!

Our latest clients - Hall for Cornwall

We were recently asked to help out the Hall for Cornwall (theatre in Truro, and main live venue for West Cornwall) with ideas for giving the interiors a spruce up. Fabulously they liked Peter's proposals and the work is underway.
Here's one of the boards from the presentation:
