We are proud to announce that the website for StageWorks Gear has now gone live:
Earlier this year, Beaver Design worked closely with the new StageWorks company to develop their brand and unique identity. Entering a competitive market, StageWorks needed show the unique features of their products for studio and stage.
PRODUCTS
Beaver designed the packaging for the new StageWorks non-slip mat. Manufactured using a triple-layered technology, the non-slip mats are retailed in pairs inside an environmentally friendly cardboard envelope.
Using in-house photography, we created a simple but bold design to show the simplicity of the product. The packaging is designed not only to be eye-catching, but also to portray the products versatility compared to older solutions.
WEB
A new website was designed to follow on from the established brand identity, using a stylish look with contrasting elements to create a bold impression.
The site is clear and organised simply, with lots of video, images and detail on the StageWorks products. It also features its own blog and links to various social media channels, which are updated by StageWorks.
Throughout the site, modern web standards are used to ensure it works efficiently with the current range of web browsers and computers people use, including SmartPhones and touch screen devices.
The StageWorks finished site is simple and clear, full of detail and imagery, and provides a substantial web presence for the new StageWorks company.
Keep an eye on the StageWorks website for future products and solutions for studio and stage!

The Recruitment Gateway is a new website portal, which offers intelligent matching between IT candidates and recruiting managers. It is a concept which does more than simply host CVs – it provides a virtual recruitment consultant, allowing candidates to interact closer with recruiting managers and for positions to be better filled.
Beaver Design was contacted early on by Recruitment Gateway and worked closely with them to design the system which would manage the website.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Candidates provide a breakdown of their key qualities and skills when they register. These details then create their ‘Recruitment Gateway Passport’, which then matches them to job positions. The job positions are created by the recruiting managers and using a series of intelligent algorithms, the candidates are ranked and matched.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
For the candidates, once they’ve set up their Recruitment Gateway Passport, it is a one-click process to apply for jobs.
For the recruitment managers, it gives them a handful of suitable applicants rather than having to sort through hundreds of applicants from other sites. It also uses the intelligent matching to show how suitable a candidate is, based on their skills and the required skills of the position.
“For Recruitment Gateway, we needed not only good designs, but a company who had the technical knowledge to build the intelligent matching required for our web business. We’re happy to say the Beaver team delivered a fantastic site, fully meeting our requirements. It’s working very well and we’re looking forward to the future.” - Recruitment Gateway
From the original idea, to the finished site, Beaver Design worked closely with Recruitment Gateway to deliver something unique, functional and most of all, useful. The website is clean and simple, providing a new valuable resource for job seekers and recruitment managers.

Beaver Design has recently finished an extensive project for London based Resource Furniture Services Limited (RFS), designing a new corporate look, including a new logo, stationery, brochures and a website.
LOGO
Starting things off, Beaver designed a new logo – a clean, professional graphic, using RFS colours and incorporating the slogan of what they provide: workplace solutions.
From the original concept and design of the logo, the rest of the brand identity followed. Beaver delivered the RFS company stationery, such as business cards and this was followed by designs for the livery of the RFS company vehicles and company brochures.

BROCHURES
The RFS brochures needed to convey information about the company, as well as fit in seamlessly with their corporate branding. Beaver designed an eight page brochure with all the information, as well as images of projects and installations.
Professional, clean and elegant design was key and the brochures were finished with a quality matt laminate, including an inside pocket for additional documents.
WEBSITE - www.rfsinstall.co.uk
The final phase to the RFS redesign project was their new company website. Like the rest of the designs in this project, this site is clean and professional, aimed at providing key information to visitors.
Like all websites designed by Beaver, it uses the latest in web development techniques, as well as simple web features such as a photo gallery and news blog. Good search engine optimisation techniques were integrated, helping RFS to be found by their clients.
By using the same brand identity throughout their print and website, and by following professional design practices, RFS now have strong tools to help better promote their business.
