We are proud to announce that the website for StageWorks Gear has now gone live:

www.stageworksgear.com

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.

StageWorks website

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!

photography in the picture

Did you know we do photography here at Beaver Design? Recently, we completed a request for some professional photography for a well known drink manufacturer. The images were to be used by a major market research agency. Because of the confidential nature of this market research, we’re unable to disclose who it was for.

Working with the product, we photographed and retouched a range of images ready for use with consumer testing.

Beaver Design often does this kind of confidential concept work for use in market research (see this story). The results of which go on to define the brands of major labels, many of which you can find on your local supermarket shelf.
