Changing perceptions

Helping a fantastic primary school look smarter

Shirley Primary

How can a school create a more compelling image?

Some of that comes down to the first things you see as a parent. Signage, certificates and uniforms. They need be strong, clear and smart!

That’s when Marty was approached by Fareena & Audra and asked if he could help take a scribble, sketch concept and turn it into a ‘look and style’, that could be applied to a range of visual applications

This was to become a really exciting project taking the idea to reality and seeing the impact on the material but also how people perceived and viewed the school.

The sketch became the graphic, and change was approved…

With Marty’s careful refinement of elements, colours and balance, a dynamic transformation slowly took place!

There is nothing like lifting the perceptions

Certificates were updated, magnets modernised, signage came as finances allowed and the uniform morphed over time in a similar way

See the difference between the ‘old’ certificate and magnet, and then how the styles were applied to signage and more

staying true to the original sketch

The overall styles have been applied carefully by the team to ensure a ‘consistent’ look

  • Certificates, including ‘Gold’ Principal one

  • Signage throughout the school

  • Flags for use at events and more to carry core values

  • Uniform for all levels of the school

  • Letterhead and cards

  • I have been fortunate to have had Marty supporting my business for 20 years. He “gets us”, and helps others to “get us too”.

  • From the start we found Marty very easy and fun to engage, a good listener, flexible and patient but genuine, and current with his ideas. We were impressed with the options he presented , turn-around times and the final outcomes and costs for our brand refresh
