was established in 2008 with the sole purpose of creating and producing exceptional, functional, creative communications for design aware businesses. Based on the outskirts of Glasgow we bring talent, passion and commitment to what we do. Fresh thinking and innovative, we provide intelligent, cost effective creative solutions with a quick turnaround for start-up and established businesses operating at varying levels and in various sectors.

We’re a small but well-formed creative think-tank of design geniuses, qualified to get you noticed. Our professional purpose in life is to wow our clients with a standard of work that propels their brand and fuels a total self-confidence from within, while fully engaging and connecting them with their audience.

We don’t have a template-based generic formula that we follow. Each response to a brief is bespoke with the ultimate end-goal of effective and successful brand and marketing design.

Our many services are available on a modular basis, so you can choose the combination mix of services that best suits your business and budget.

DESIGN IS THE FIRST STANDARD YOUR BUSINESS IS MEASURED BY

Our goal is for every project we work on, to deliver big time. So we’ve got quite a few questions to ask about your business, your industry, your target audience and your goals, so we’re clear on what you want to achieve.

Armed with this information, we’ll go and think, we’ll research your industry and check out what your competitors are up to. We’ll think some more, then produce our creative response and present in draft format. We can chat through the route that’s been proposed and discuss any amendments or refinements that need addressed ensuring clarity of concept, with your involvement throughout.

From here, we then produce the project in its finished format to the highest possible standards and you get to see, touch and interact with what will represent your business, beautifully.

BRAND DEVELOPMENT The consumer has choice and plenty of it. Persuading them to choose your business over another doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, we make it very simple – by designing a strong and robust brand that will drive your business above your competitors. We get to the bottom of what makes your business unique, your values and who you want to connect with.

Only then can we deliver a brand or marketing design, that will evoke positive emotion in the consumer and attract customers through trust, giving you the creative pillar around which your business will evolve.

We develop brands through designing logos and identities, business stationery, brochures and sales literature, vehicle livery and direct marketing.

We make you look stunning.

PRINT DESIGN The age of digital communication has obviously landed with a bang, but still with a very relevant and valuable place in brand, marketing and advertising design, there’s print. With a tangible reach that a website can’t achieve, well-designed print works beautifully in synergy with your online presence and can be very powerful at driving traffic direct to your website.

We love to touch and interact with designed print, creating business stationery, large format, leaflets and flyers, brochures, sales literature, annual reports, menus, billboards, packaging, fliers and mailers. We have the skill, experience and passion to design with great impact.

Saint Serif came as a recommendation from a business associate. What came out of our first meeting was way past my expectations.

It was clear from the outset that they really understood our product and could identify well with the market we were aiming at. Their creative response to what we required on that part of our journey bowled us over. The logo design they carried out works beautifully and many people have made the point of telling us how much they like it too.

LOGO DESIGN As an established logo design agency, we appreciate how important a logo is to the success of your brand. It’s about developing a visual device that will serve as an instantly recognisable calling card for your business and should define your brand. It needs to be readable, versatile and memorable or it’ll do you no favours. Having designed logos in many business sectors, we can advise on refreshing an existing marque or designing complete new identities. Successful logo design takes time, talent, vision and skill to execute something individual, relevant and something you can truly call your own, so we always do the right amount of consultation and research before we begin the design process.

Our business approached Saint Serif with a specific, but very original design request and they quite honestly raised the bar when it came to standards. Their professionalism and quality of work was outstanding... they have an endless supply of ideas and designs. I simply would not go anywhere else for our design needs, as I know that Saint Serif will not only meet our required business needs, it will in fact, exceed them, every single time.

Working with Saint Serif Design has been an eye opener into the power that good strong, clear and honest marketing has on business. Dave has taken MCD to a level that simply would not have been achievable without the strong, stubborn and determined character David is, and although we have had our difference in our thoughts, what has been produced working with Saint Serif, is a level of marketing that is quite simply in my opinion, the best out there.
