Glorious is a design agency. We win lots of work, we do lots of creative stuff and we like our work a lot. We have some young designers with bags of ideas and enthusiasm and some older gents. Some of them rarely shave, while others have a vast array of Adidas trainers.

Book + Blog = Blook

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

The Consult Group wanted a visual identity for their new ‘blook’ (more than book, more than just a blog). ‘Serious fun’ was the message, as the company targeted businesses and creative agencies across the UK, and beyond! They wanted an identity they could use on posters, their new website and other material. The concept is […]

Wrap up well

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

Top photographer and friend of the family, Tim Ainsworth, wanted a moving mailer to let the world know he was moving on and up. In keeping with the typographic style of his identity, we created a simple mailer, screen printed on packing paper, folded and taped with gaffer tape – all ready for the removal […]

Urbis art

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

We all want to buy our own art nowadays – especially in the booming Manchester metropolis. According to our stats, 4.9 million people in England have bought a piece of original art, with a further 5.9 million looking to buy original art.
Moorfield Media, one the fastest growing events firms in the region, has tapped into […]

Carlisle Airport takes off

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

It’s not often you get the chance to work on the relaunch of an airport, so Glorious is delighted to be one of the agencies working on the repositioning of Carlisle to ‘the airport for the Lakes’.

Socks for Happy People have certainly opened our eyes to the wonderful world of socks. Glorious are delighted to have been tasked with creating […]

Ho ho ho, It’s Christmas!

Friday, December 14th, 2007

Some of our clients received our Christmas mailer today, a little something from us all here at Glorious and although we all thought it would be a great idea if Scott dressed up as Santa and delivered them all by hand, he just didn’t seem all that keen. Anyway as the carol says a ‘Christmas […]

Going, going, gong

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

It’s good to be Glorious, which is why we were chuffed to win two awards at this year’s Roses Design Awards, held at Manchester’s longest building, Beetham Tower. We got two nominations and both got prizes, bronzes; one for our diary (best use of photography) and another for Temperature Control (best website), which wasn’t bad […]

Teacher’s pet

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

It’s always satisfying when a plan comes together, especially when it’s an 18 month project to rebrand one of the most well known names in private education.
So, when the new signage went up at Merchant Taylors’ Schools in Crosby, our design team made themselves a brew and cracked open the Hob Nobs.
‘Merchants’, for those who […]
