HOYS Diamond Jubilee
In celebration of Horse of the Year Show's 60th anniversary, Grandstand Group commissioned Splatt to design their very special commemorative material.
The project starts with a Diamond Jubilee version of the HOYS logo to be used for the year. Visitor leaflets and a comprehensive trade and consumer advertising campaigns followed, featuring vintage images of equestrian celebrities from years gone by. At the great show itself, more commemorative material included posters, sashes, horse rugs, carrier bags and programmes. Splatt's fondest piece, however, was the commemorative Show Jump, which played a central role in the Show Jumping championships. 56,000 visitors graced the NEC for Horse of the Year Show's special celebration of 60 glorious years. The Show was a complete sell-out and no one was disappointed with what has been hailed as one of the most entertaining HOYS to date.
Brunch Box
Based near Bristol, the Brunch Box is a cafe that prides itself on its freshly made breakfast and brunch menu, boasting "the best breakfast in Bristol". However, local competition is fierce, so Splatt was commissioned to try to help boost sales.
The project started with the fascia, designing several logo options that would work for the huge space available. Once the logo design was agreed, the striking burgundy red and chrome fascia and smart glass screens around the garden were created, instantly transforming the look of the cafe.
Attention then turned to promoting their menu items, detailing choices to suit the season - ie freshly made smoothies and shakes whilst the weather is hot. Bright, colourful flyers and A Frame posters were designed to be unmissable to passing trade. Simple little cards held by crocodile clips on the tables promote current meal deals and special offers. The plan is to keep the offers evolving so returning customers always have something new to try.
It is still early days, but managing director David Wiltshire is overjoyed with the immediate results "Well, we have just had the best ever Saturday and Sunday…an increase of more than 30% over the best previous day!! I was even dragged in to act as a waiter on Saturday!! It does really demonstrate that there is a massive demand for the product that we are offering…and that the changes made with your help are working...
The café is going from strength to strength…incredible really, nearly up 100% in 2 months!..."
