Mini abstracts on a Sunday afternoon. Colours have Mini abstracts on a Sunday afternoon. Colours haven’t photographed amazingly - but love the texture and depth on this little minis. Just started off making marks and combining colours I love. Probably subconscious inspiration from the summer and blue sky today! There is no ‘cmd z’ when painting so you just have to trust your instinct to know when to put the paintbrush down! #painting #abstractpainting #sketchbook #noapplez #colourinspo

JWJ Design is proud to be the official design part JWJ Design is proud to be the official design partner for the AIP Conference and Industry awards event in Leeds next week. As design partner, we built the visual identity for the day and evening event, as well as supporting the team with the brochure, banners and marketing communications. AIP is an organisation that really cares about its members and does so much to raise the awareness of the struggles of the indoor play industry. If you're in the indoor play world and haven't come across AIP yet, they're well worth a look. And if you're heading to a trade show this year you will have a great time. We can't make it this year - but know it will be a good one.

Heritage, Considered, Playful & Discover... Just Heritage, Considered, Playful & Discover... Just 4 of the brand words that we needed to communicate within Bekonscot brand identity. Here's how we did it: Heritage: Core typeface that reflects train signage from the 1930s, alongside vintage textures and shapes in the extended assets. Considered: The alignment, balance and detail of the logo which reflects the detail and quality of the model figures around the site. Playful: Bright contrasting colour palette - but avoiding the primary colour palette. Discover: Simple illustrations layered on top of one another reflecting the model villages onsite. What do you think, did we manage it?

And also our newest. 🥳 Something we have been working on over the past few months – the re-brand of one of the oldest model villages located in Beaconsfield. It was well overdue a refresh and JWJ Design were lucky enough to be chosen to work on re-vamping their identity and bringing consistency to their communications. As the park is due to re-open in time for half-term, we are busy preparing all the different customer touch points - but here is a sneak preview of the new logo.

ATP specialises in corporate team-building and development, drawing inspiration from the high-octane world of Formula One. With hands-on activities like the PitStop Challenge, they bring speed, precision, and teamwork to life. Our design captures the essence of F1 with bold, dynamic visuals. Diagonal cuts and shifted letterforms evoke motion and energy, while repeated line patterns and striking, team-inspired colours add a sense of speed and power. We also decided that having a static logo was a missed opportunity with this brand – in today’s video-centric world, a moving logo is a game-changer. Do you have an animated version of your logo that you can use in presentations and on social media? #branding #motiondesign #logodesign

ATP specialises in corporate team-building and development, drawing inspiration from the high-octane world of Formula One. With hands-on activities like the PitStop Challenge, they bring speed, precision, and teamwork to their events. Our design captures the essence of F1 with bold, dynamic visuals. Diagonal cuts and shifted letterforms evoke motion and energy. Repeated line shapes were added to the brand collateral with bold, striking colours that are reminiscent of F1 teams. The angular lines are an additional brand asset, designed for flexibility across different applications and spaces. As someone who grew up with F1 on the TV during Sunday lunch this was a really exciting and fun project to work on. We're also pretty proud of the creative execution so we might shout about it for a bit! 😉 #branding #logodesign #logolover #sportlogo

"Bespoke design is expensive." "Creatives are dis "Bespoke design is expensive." "Creatives are disorganised." "They won't listen to what I want - and will just do what they think is right." Have you heard any of these statements before? Perhaps you've thought it or someone has said it to you? My response to these thoughts... ➡️ Yes bespoke design can be expensive but it should be seen as an investment in your business. Plus what will it cost if you don't get it done and try and do it yourself? ➡️ Not all creatives are disorganised... we may be easily distracted. 😉 I have systems in place to ensure I remain organised and in control of my business and my client's projects. ➡️ This might just be a bad experience rather than true for all. At JWJ we provide counter reasons if there is anything we disagree with. At the end of the day you have commissioned us to help with a problem and so we will always try and fix that problem in the best way that everyone can agree on.
