Design for Watford businesses
Just inside the M25, at the start of the M1 and a short train ride from Euston, Watford has become a head office town. J D Wetherspoon, Costco UK and TJX Europe, the business behind TK Maxx and Homesense, are all based here, and the offices along Clarendon Road and near Watford Junction house plenty of other corporate and professional teams. Croxley Park adds a large office campus on the western side.
Head office teams have plenty of brand guidance but rarely enough hands to produce everything. The work we do for corporate teams is usually support material that has to follow existing rules:
- PowerPoint and Google Slides templates with locked masters, so every regional deck looks the same
- Internal communications: posters, newsletters, infographics and reports
- Brand guidelines for sub-brands or teams that have grown their own look
- Conference and away-day graphics, from stage screens to name badges
- Consistent headshots for leadership pages and annual reports
Film and television are the other big strand. The Harry Potter films were shot at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden, just north of the town, and the studio keeps a whole chain of production service, kit hire, set building, catering and post-production companies busy. Those firms need logos and brand packs that look credible to studios, kit catalogues, rate cards and showreel graphics. Watford Business Park adds trade and distribution firms that need livery and signage, and the Atria shopping centre and high street have restaurants, bars and retailers that need menus and promotional print. Everything is designed remotely from Mansfield with fixed prices agreed first. Photography and video are shot on location in Watford, with travel quoted before booking.

We do. Catalogues are quoted per job, and product photography of kit starts from £25 + VAT per image, shot on location at your premises. Layouts are supplied as print-ready PDF and as a lighter PDF for emailing to production managers, with clear specifications and day rates.
