Design for Truro businesses
Truro is Cornwall's only city and the county's administrative centre, home to the county council, the main acute hospital at Treliske and a compact centre of shops, solicitors and accountants around Lemon Street and Boscawen Street. Much of the design demand, though, comes from businesses spread across the county that use Truro as their commercial base.
Food and drink is a big part of that. Dairies, bakeries, breweries, gin distillers and seafood merchants sell both to trade and direct, and they need packaging and labels that look at home in a deli and in a gift box shipped up country. Getting the dieline, the bleed and the Pantone references right first time saves an expensive reprint.
Tourism needs a different set of assets. Holiday lets, campsites and attractions live or die on photographs, so a well-planned shoot in good light is often worth more than a new website. Welcome guides, maps and leaflets then reuse the same images.
Newer sectors are growing too. Renewable energy firms, critical minerals projects and the space work at Newquay all need clear technical material: diagrams, reports, presentation decks and occasionally 3D renders of equipment.
- Food and drink producers: labels, packaging, product photography
- Holiday lets and campsites: property photography, welcome packs
- Professional firms: brand refresh, stationery, report templates
- Renewables and technology firms: infographics, decks, renders
- Independent shops: logos, signage, social templates
Distance is the practical issue in Cornwall. Design work suits a remote arrangement well: proofs by email, feedback on a video call, files delivered by download. When we do travel for photography, it makes sense to plan several locations into one trip, which keeps the travel element of the quote down.
The shared university campus at Penryn, a short drive away, also produces a lot of creative freelancers, and we are happy to work alongside them.
