Frameworks is a communications design agency based in London. We understand exactly what our clients want and then we deliver on time, every time.
We build our policies and our business on the basis that we must always deliver what we promise. Everyone in the company understands that our reputation is in the hands of every individual. This is the driving force behind our relentless pursuit of excellence – shown here in our latest work and demonstrated in everything we do.
Frameworks provides marketing support to Startup: a charity established to support ex-offenders in successful self-employment.
Each year more than 80,000 prisoners are released from prison but nearly two thirds of them will have re-offended within two years. Many factors contribute to this re-offending that include family, social, educational and work problems. One of the real tragedies from this re-offending is the loss of the ex-offenders’ potential contribution to society and the damage to their families and children.
It is easy to understand why re-offending can occur as people often leave prison with no money, no car, no bank account, no job and no references. Startup aims to help ex-offenders solve some of these problems by becoming self-employed, giving them a real chance of a fresh start.
The organisation achieves this by providing ex-offenders with focused, caring and consistent support, both financial and personal, which will reduce re-offending by enabling ex-offenders to become self-employed and return to a positive and productive life where they add value to society.
As part of Frameworks’ Pro Bono work, we have created a new identity for Startup, which has been rolled out into its website and collateral, helping to support the organisation in its important work. The new website can be viewed at: www.startupnow.org.uk
Following the successful creation of the new Startup identity, Frameworks has designed and built its new website.
It was crucial to create a website that effectively communicated the important work Startup undertakes. To achieve this, the website contains concise information about how the organisation works, its success stories and all its recent news and events.
The website has been built using WordPress, allowing users to easily manage content through an admin facility. You can view the new Startup website at: www.startupnow.org.uk
The Innovation and Entrepreneurship Group at Tanaka Business School, Imperial College London, asked Frameworks to create a name and visual look and feel for their new newsletter.
The Group was created in 2003 with the aim to help firms improve their innovative capabilities resulting in boosted performance, increased speed and accuracy and cost reduction in new product and service development.
Ingage will be at the heart of the Group’s internal communication functions, delivering key information to employees and stakeholders. Ingage is an informative, clean, concise newsletter that has a unique identity, but still follows Tanaka Business School corporate guidelines.
Frameworks was approached by Motability Operations to provide design and HTML templates for their new website.
Motability Operations is a private business providing a range of affordable cars to disabled people through lease and hire purchase schemes. They are the largest fleet operator in the UK and the largest supplier of used cars to the trade. The organisation is owned by the five clearing banks: Barclays, HBOS, Lloyds TSB, HSBC and the Royal Bank of Scotland.
We liaised with Motability’s internal IT team to design a site that both followed the organisation’s clear guidelines and worked with the content management system they already had in place.
AZUDOO is a mutual global society regulated by the Financial Services Authority in the United Kingdom.
The Mutual’s purpose, in a collectively owned, collaborative and co-creative environment duly created by the Mutual, is to provide:
- An opportunity and a space for the Members to communicate and consider what the key economic, social, cultural and environmental challenges are that they face as Members, and how they might solve such economic, social, cultural and environmental challenges;
- A forum for the determination of the distribution of funds of the Mutual for Projects. The Mutual seeks to solve such key economic, social, cultural and environmental challenges and to be eligible for such funds the relevant challenge must be faced by a sufficiently sized community of Members directly or indirectly.
AZUDOO is where you share, pitch and fund ideas together. www.azudoo.com
Design London asked Frameworks to design a report to communicate the progress and performance during its first year of operation.
Since the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE), the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts (NESTA) and the parent organisations of the Royal College of Art and Imperial College London established Design London in October 2007 in response to the Cox Review: Creativity in Business, it has made huge strides in its aims to develop, research and deliver radically new practices, tools and processes to transform the way organisations innovate, and translate their creativity into commercial success.
The new report strengthens the Design London brand, and effectively expresses its key messages and vision for the future. Frameworks is pleased to support such an exciting organisation and looks forward to continuing its relationship with Design London.
“Design London… the most exciting educational project in many years.”
Sir James Dyson, Chairman, Dyson Limited
For the third year running, Frameworks was asked to design the corporate hospitality materials for the Wimbledon tennis championships.
Following the look and feel of the ‘STOP TALKING. START DOING’ IBM worldwide advertising campaign, we created designs for suite invitations, an information booklet and menu card.
The championships run from 23 June – 6 July. Visit www.wimbledon.org for more information.
The name for the new programme is Design Connection and will combine Grant Thornton’s business expertise, knowledge of the SME market and strong investor networks with Design London’s excellence in design, business and research.
Design London asked Frameworks to develop an identity for Design Connection to be used for its new website and marketing collateral. The identity combines the strong branding elements from both Design London and the existing Designing Demand programme, demonstrating their connection.
As part of Framework’s commitment to sharing its wealth of experience and knowledge in the form of charitable Pro Bono work, we have designed, built and hosted the new website for Rights and Humanity. After the successful relaunch of the organisation’s new identity, we created a website that will allow Rights and Humanity to engage further with audiences regarding its work in promoting respect for human rights.
For over twenty years, Rights and Humanity has helped millions of poor and disadvantaged people across the world to realise their human rights and dignity. Frameworks is honoured to support such a pioneering organisation, and looks forward to continuing this relationship.
Frameworks was asked to develop a new mark and guidelines for Durrell’s 50th anniversary in 2009.
During its 50 years of existence, Durrell has achieved a great deal, but they believe this work is only the tip of the iceberg, with more needed to be done. The ‘it’s time!’ campaign will communicate Durrell’s message, and will feature on all anniversary year material and advertising, reinforcing the existing Durrell brand, originally created by Frameworks.
The campaign will allow Durrell to engage with all audiences, and prompt them into action to help contribute to the earth’s health and wellbeing, including the protection and maintenance of species worldwide.
