Wixams - L&Q Estates
The brief from L&Q Estates was for a high-end brochure, with exemplary production values, that told the story of the Wixams development - taking an industrial site
that had seen better days and transforming
it into an aspirational new village community. The resulting 32pp brochure features a wealth of newly commissioned photography by Julian Calverley, together with historical research, copywriting, design and creative direction from Brand Skillings.

Caister Lifeboat has been saving lives at sea since 1791. Completely independent, they depend entirely on public donations to help provide safety and rescue services to the countless vessels, crews and beach visitors to this area of the East Coast of England. We are proud to support this vital charity - developing a new website to provide details of their latest rescues - or "shouts" as they are known - and most importantly to encourage donations.
