I cannot thank the team at BLU:72 Creative enough for the brilliant business branding they created for us. It exceeded our expectations! We needed a new logo, stationery and literature such as leaflets and calling cards. We also needed a delivery box creating to send out the flower subscriptions to our customers. The style I was looking for was minimal and with a mono colour palette. Blu:72 interpreted this perfectly and I'm so pleased with the results. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend their skills and services and will definitely be using them again in the future!

Mark and the team at BLU:72 Creative were a pleasure to work with. I needed a new logo for my Nottingham based removals business after using an old dated one for years. The team came up with a number of design options and were happy to make revisions where required. We now have a perfect logo for our business which our clients have loved. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend.

I was recommended to use BLU:72 Creative by a friend and what a good recommendation that turned out to be. Mark and his team have been excellent throughout the process of creating my new brand and provided a truly professional service. They have a good eye for design and attention to detail and even now, two years later, people comment on how refreshing and sharp my logo is.
They were able to interpret what I had in my head onto paper and produced something well beyond my expectations. Nothing was too much trouble, they provided a swift and flexible service tailored to my needs. If only the rest of my suppliers were so competent, the world would be a better place.

I have worked with BLU:72 Creative on several projects over the last 10 years, including creating marketing collateral for my main business, as well as branding for a live music festival. Their willingness to provide the best and most precise finished work, ensure BLU:72 are a creative leader in the industry. I would not hesitate to recommend.

We needed a new logo & approached BLU:72 to see if they could help. After the initial phone call we knew we had found the right company to undertake our project. We gave our ideas & our vision of what we desired & Mark listened & took onboard exactly what we wanted. When we received the concept designs of the logo we had the choice of several designs and within them we instantly spotted our perfect logo.
We were very happy with the fact BLU:72 actually listen to what we wanted and put it into a very good design. We needed a new logo design but we actually got a new company brand.

I highly recommend BLU:72 Creative. They have been our 'go to' designers for our charity since 2012. They have been instrumental in capturing the essence of our charity as it has grown. They have designed our logo, branding, first ever website and produced various literature and promotional materials for all of our fundraising events. Their personal service, honesty, creativity and professionalism is top class. BLU:72 have supported our charity and generously given us a discounted charity rate which, as a small charity, is incredibly helpful. Huge thanks to the team at BLU:72. You won't be disappointed if you commission them to for your design work. Leanne Turner (Founder/CEO Aching Arms)

We have used BLU:72 Creative for a few years now after they were recommended to us. They have created numerous pieces of marketing collateral for us including advertising campaigns in both print and on local transport, as well designs for our vans and stationery. Our logo and brand identity was already in place, but BLU:72 carefully worked with the existing design and modernised it. I can highly recommend their services to anyone looking to promote their own business.

Blu:72 Creative recently worked with me on the creation of a completely new brand identity for my start-up business. I approached them having seen examples of their previous work where their creativeness shone through. Mark was really good to work with and took time to understand the aspirations for my business and what I wanted to achieve with the brand going forward, including how that reflected my own personality.
He was keen to understand the meaning behind the brand name and how I would like to see that in the brand identity. I then left him to get on with the job and was totally surprised when a couple of weeks later I was given a raft of options to choose from, all of which would have been very worthy winners in their own right. After a process of elimination and discussion I made a final selection and Mark went on to apply the identity to the wider business stationery and social media graphics.
The range of package options offered by Blu:72 made it a really easy process to follow and being a start-up working to a tight budget, it allowed me to keep the costs to a level that I could afford. I am very happy with the service provided and delighted with the overall results. Thank you!

BLU:72 Creative have been my graphic designers of choice since I first saw their work over 10 years ago. Nothing is too much trouble, and they listen carefully to what I'm trying to achieve and advise me on the best way to get what I want. I've been recommending BLU:72 to others for some time now, and as a result they have provided graphic design input to both my clients and my professional body.

Mark Leary of BLU:72 Creative is a top-notch graphic designer and an incredibly professional and accommodating individual. The quality of his portfolio, available on the BLU:72 website, speaks volumes for the quality of his work. Mark is always my first port of call for any design and branding and I can recommend his services with full confidence.

I would have no hesitation in recommending BLU:72 Creative. I recently set up my new financial advice practice and one of the most important compliance requirements is a company logo and stationery. Without this I am unable to conduct business or give advice. BLU:72 were able to turn around my requirements in good time and ensure I could hit the ground running.
Not only did they give me 6 designs to choose from in a short space of time but they also made the necessary regulatory amendments in rapid time. The design was first class and the customer service was superb. I look forward to continuing my business relationship with BLU:72 Creative as the needs of my business change.

I instructed BLU:72 Creative to set up my professional branding in March 2018 when I started the business- Ella Millett Legal. I had a clear vision of how I wanted it to look and feel, but had no idea of how to get this to become a reality, until I met Mark at BLU:72. He is extremely personable and made the process fun and enjoyable and most of all easy.
They created my branding beautifully and certainly met the brief, giving me plenty of options to choose from. I get a lot of positive comments on my logo and how this sets me apart from other law firms. My branding says a lot about my business as being a modern, quality, boutique style firm of solicitors, specialising in Wills, Estate Planning Work and Estate Administration. BLU:72 were also able to connect me with Phil Simpson at Code Print, who printed my company literature to bring the quality of their work to life. I always recommend BLU:72 for creative branding design for other businesses I meet who want to bring their vision to life.

We chose BLU:72 Creative as our design partner having worked with them on a previous project and were impressed with the standard of work produced. This project was very specific and we needed to be totally confident we had chosen the right design team. We did a lot of due diligence around their overall portfolio, to ensure they had the skill set to design a food brand that would be appropriate for the Healthy Snacking market.
We are pleased to say BLU:72 exceeded our expectations. The process was seamless from start to finish and the creative input that aligned to our own vision was just superb. We are delighted with all aspects of the work and the customer service and ownership of the project was excellent.

Paul Ritchie, Managing Director – Foremost Security
Foremost Security engaged BLU:72 Creative to develop our logo and create the homepage for our website, as well as brochures, stationery and signage. Our logo already existed, so we asked Mark and the team to ‘refresh’ it and bring it into the modern age while keeping the essence of the original. Our aim was to provide a consistent message across the various media we use for our marketing, to give us a professional look without breaking the bank.
BLU:72 have succeeded in doing this by consulting and working with us at every stage.
What Mark and his team have also added to the mix is creativity and capability, with an end result that will be there for all to see. In particular, we love our new logo, a perfect blend of modernity with links back to our original design.

Brilliant service from the creative team at BLU:72 Creative, who took my rather loose brief for logo design and a website, and came up with a range of options. The team were incredibly professional, easy to work with, happy to bat about ideas, and delivered high quality results always on time and to expectation. After this experience I would have no hesitation recommending BLU:72 for all future design work.
Mark Menhennet
BLU:72 Creative provided Answer-4u with an exceptional bespoke website design for our Telephone Answering Business. The entire process from the initial ideas phase to final sign-off was a pleasurable and painless process with Mark and the team always available to offer their valuable advice when needed. Not only do our clients stay on our site for longer, they now purchase more often which is undoubtedly down to the improved user experience that BLU:72 has provided us with. I would have no hesitation in recommending their services.
Lee Hewson
BLU:72 Creative have recently completed a number of design projects for us. They have been thoroughly professional throughout and have made a fantastic job of interpreting what we wanted. They were extremely patient as we requested changes and strayed from our original brief. We are delighted with the end results and will certainly be using them for future projects. We would highly recommend BLU:72 to any business looking for a professional graphic design service with a personal touch.
Dr Mike Pollard
Over the past 8 years that I have worked with BLU:72, they have consistently provided me with creative solutions within agreed deadlines and budgets. In my experience, BLU:72 have shown a creative edge that has set them apart from other designers that I have worked with. I would have not have been able to produce the high volume of marketing materials required in my previous role without the professionalism and creativity they offer. In my current role I have continued to use BLU:72, I recommend them without reservation.
