- 7. Creative Awards Matter! The creative league table Design Week’s annual league table is based on a points system for all creative awards won in significant competitions in the UK and America over the past three years. These awards are a sign for fellow professionals to know which design companies are doing their job right which, in turn, helps them to recruit quality staff. We all want to work with the best!
- 8. The chase’s philosophy The story told since 1986… There was once an old Indian craftsman who carved elephants from blocks of timber. When asked how he did it, he would reply, ‘I just cut away the wood that doesn't look like an elephant.’ This is the philosophy of The Chase, it sums up the essence of a business that places creativity at its very heart. What they do is simple. It is the result of great thinkers, great talent, great passion and great ideas. Simple.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Developing degree courses for graphic design and lecturing at various colleges and universities.Over the years Ben has been invited onto the boards and steering committees of some of the country’s most respected and influential design advisory panels, These include The British Design Council’s Design Skills Advisory Panel, The City of Manchester’s Creative Panel and the Chairmanship of the British Design & Art Director’s Club’s Education Group.He has also chaired and directed judging juries for all the major UK creative awards and many international ones.
- Not much information to be found on Lionel Hatch. He must be a private person however look at where he has published work and exhibited projects. Some credible places.One quirky fact I did find which shows his characters was… “currently writing a novel about life survival after failing the eleven-plus exam (twice) in 1950s Britain” it shows there is hope for us all still yet.
- They may not matter to clients but they do to designers!!! The Chase’s statement.However I do think they matter to clients, as clients want the best designers to market their product!
- 25 Years in the Business of Design!!!! Looking back over the years.I don’t want to go into detail about all their work as I would be here all day. So I want to summarise in my opinion on their style of work and what I think about it.Ther work is very unique and individual to them. It’s very simplistic with a modern and contempory feel.The thought process into some of their work is extensive making the finished result exceptional.The minimalistic with unusual twists make it very interesting and unique. Giving it that draw dropping factor of ‘how did they think of that and I wish I can be as creative as that’I loved the majority of their work. There was nothing I disliked. Some I thought ‘yeah that’s okay’ but most I found myself say ‘wow, that’s amazing, how creative!’I found it very inspirational and I hope that I too one day may be as good as this.I would love to work for this company to gain that valuable experience would be amazing.
- On my headings the greyscale images are those from The Chase’s website… what they have used to symbolise the heading. A quirky and humorous touch. It give you an insight into their personalities. A laid back and not taking themselves too serious approach but with a unique and very creative way of thinking! Those ideas and communications are brilliant.Seen most of these before. Simplistic at its best. Great visual communication. Myfavourite… Leaf street. Wow. You see the leaf but then see its made of a row of houses, which is a street.
- I love the smile branding logo. A clear visual communication. Which is interactive with the audience. How it chages to suit the different target audiences is genius. How creative. And the simple symbols and icon smiles used are great.
- Creative literature.
- Absolutely love these promotion items! That decking invite was for themselves but how much must it have cost them to post those out?! Design has no price!!The brick packaging made of card is unique.And the MEN moving card……the moving bit is made from their full name and folderedappropriatley to make the word. But by opening it it also expends which they want to communicate. They have moved and expanded. Wow… Genius.
- Seats in a football stadium represent pixels to create an image.
- I love their staionery…. So unique and inspirational. Myfavourite is the garden lighting company. How simple but so effective. And making compliment slip protrait not seen that done before… breaking the rules and thinking outside the box. Not just the norm.
- I love the cock-a-doodle pad. A doodle pad names after a play of words on the sound a cockerel makes and the binding of the book is made to look like cockerels claws. And the coastal erosion book with the back of the book and last few pages corroding away another great visual communications. I liked the layout of the football poetry anthology book. The layout is very quirky. Not standard layout format here.
- Packaging. What makes these truly unique is how The Chase designers have used the product itself to become part of the packaging here.
- Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoyed my presentation. Any question?
