full-screen flash website
& cms
30 Bird Productions are an Anglo/Iranian theatre company who wanted a full-Flash website that was very much “style over content”.
Once the SEO logistics of such a proposal had been sorted, I set about working out a structure for the site.
The solution was somewhat unusual but it hit the right tone for the client who was, and still is, thrilled with it.
Mono Industries also built an easy-to-use content management system so that the 30 Bird team could add, edit and delete all their own content, including audio, music and film files.

Business Coach Adrian Reith asked Mono Industries to design and build a new website and content management system for his business coaching practice.
The solution was an integrated system that lets Adrian add, edit and delete his site content from anywhere in the world using the popular Wordpress platform.
Having a background in advertising meant that Adrian had very strong ideas about what he wanted (and didn’t want), so it was important for me to listen rather than dictate what I thought he might want from his site.
identity creation, stationery & website design
Alasdair Cant & Associates are a Cambridge based training consultancy specialising in mentoring and coaching. I’ve worked with Alasdair & Helen for many years. I designed and built their logo, put together their stationery and designed and built them a website which saw them make the move online for the first time.
They required a simple yet stylish site that they could update and manage themselves. The site has bought them terrific results in a relatively short amount of time.
creative careers fair publicity & website
For the third year running, Mono Industries was asked to develop ideas for the Arts Council’s Creative Careers Fairs.
As well as developing a visual identity for the project, striking vector images were used to portray two specific ideas: thinking out of the box and standing out from the crowd. Posters, leaflets, flyers and carrier bags were produced to communicate these messages to the target audience of 18-25 year olds.
We were also asked to design and develop a website for the fairs which included building a bespoke content management system.

Working with friends can sometimes be a little tricky but not with photographer Debby Besford.
She required a website that was simple to use and perhaps more importantly, simple to maintain.
Once the site had gone live, I took elements of its design to provide her with some very elegant stationery.

Independent insurance brokers La Playa invited Mono Industries to re-design and host their website.
The company has a reputation within the industry for doing things a little differently and this needed to be communicated via the new site. The end product was a very smart but friendly site which utilised some great photography.
We are just about to start re-structuring the site to take into account some social media activities that the company are keen to implement.

Having worked with Sarah at her two previous employers, I had a good idea of what she wanted when she decided to set up her own business: contemporary but not trendy, smart but not fashionable.
The starting point was an identity followed by a stationery set and website with an accompanying content management system.
The website needed to have lots of embedded audio and video content built in, so I needed to make sure that Sarah was able to manage this easily via the CMS.
theatre show publicity design & branding
British/Czech theatre company NIE [New International Encounter] commissioned Mono Industries to design the publicity for a show that was performed at the 2004 Edinburgh Festival. The show entitled My Long Journey Home, which has been performed over 200 times in 9 countries, made its UK debut at the Pleasance Theatre in August.
The show then went on to Battersea Arts Centre for which I designed a post card which incorporated photography from the Edinburgh run. The company then invited me to re-brand them, starting with a new visual identity which once finalised, was used on various new stationery items.
In early Summer 2005 I started work on publicity for the company’s new show The End Of Everything Ever. A2, A3 and A5 publicity material was designed using images shot in the Czech Republic earlier in the year.
In January 2007 I started work on the publicity for a new show entitled ‘My Life With The Dogs’. A new ‘punky’ style was adopted for this particular production.
The company’s website which I also designed and developed is about to go through a phase of re-structuring which will incorporate some of the latest social media tools.

Designing an identity and website for a bomb disposal company was a little bit daunting at first but having spent a lot of time with Danny and his team, it became clear what was required.
In essence, Planit International are an environmental company, going in and clearing up other people’s mess – in their case, unexploded ordnance.
Easily one of my favourite ever projects.
website analysis &

We also looked at the site and compared it to that of their main competitors.
web shop design & consultancy
Mono Industries was asked to design a web shop for Icelandic band Sigur Rós by their management company Big Dipper Management.
A simple and elegant design solution was required to work alongside the band’s evocative visuals. Great attention to detail was given to the layout and typography within the shop as it was felt that the usual online shopping experience would not be appropriate in this instance.
The shop was built by e-commerce merchandise experts Sandbag.

Being a bit of a geek myself, I was thrilled when telecoms startup StarLeaf contacted me about designing an identity and website for them.
They were so easy to work with and full of ideas. It was also nice to work with a client who was as interested in the tiny details as I was.
I’m looking forward to being able to work with them again in the future.
photo editing
Mono Industries was asked to photo-edit the first version of U2.com – the official website of U2.
The site was a complete retrospective which included all stages of the band’s career.
