Fuse having recently received delivery of their new business cards with new branding. We have to say that we are very pleased with our new cards, they look great and we’ll be posting a picture of them up here once we launch our new branding in the coming weeks.

But, having said that we’ll be sad to see the old ones go, as we have found them to be extremely popular, they have cropped up on various design blogs, website galleries and have been published in two books.

Lets hope the new cards will be just as successful!

Fuse took time our of their busy schedule yesterday to take up Double Red’s invitation of a few simulated laps in a Formula One Showcar, in what turned out to be a phenomenal driving experience.

Using the same simulation technology used in the F1 drivers training, the car as a PR tool would provide great opportunities in marketing a business as its simply so unique.  To find out more information the visit the Formula 1 Racer website.

We’ll definitely look at hiring it in the future!

We have recently received our copy of the book The Image of the Business Card Today, which features ‘the most creative business cards from all around the world’. We are very pleased to have our very own Fuse Cards feature along with our Fabric Architect designs.

The book, that is available in six languages and is published by Artpower International, has lots of inspirational designs and is a great reference tool for all designers. Click here to check out some of their other titles.

Our business cards are also going to be featured in Graphic Design Translated.  The book is published by Rockport and due for release in April of this year, available in all good bookshops!

As the new fuse branding starts to gain momentum, we decided to hire out the Double Red Studio in Lincoln and professionally shoot a range of printed marketing material we have produced for our clients in the past year.

We got photographer Phil Crow in to take the shots for us that will be featured in our portfolio section on our new website. It was a nice break from being in front of our monitors with Adam setting up most of the shots and Stuart making the tea!

We have just received our images back from Phil and we now can’t wait to launch our new site to show off our clients work!

Our first Triple Point Lease Partners (TPLP) quarterly statement has just been given approval from our clients.

The statement provides a brief overview for the investors to see exactly how their investments are made and how they are performing.

We where given the brief to recreate the statements, after producing the new branding and stationery for Lease Partners arm of Triple Point.

The Big Chill House in King’s Cross was host to Love Spain, Hate Bullfighting on October 22nd, the street art competition ran by the League Against Cruel Sports, in association with Don’t Panic. They had around 150 entries from established designers and artist from across the globe and both of Fuse’s entries came runners up, which was a fantastic achievement.

The work the League Against Cruel Sports do is very commendable. They campaign against the unnecessary and brutal cruelty towards animals in the name of sport. To find out more or to donate check out their website…

Another website has gone live in the past few days – this time its www.travel-offers.co.uk.

We took over the build of this site to meet the clients tight deadline. The site includes an online payment facility using paypal’s secure server, for users to purchase annual Travel Offers membership.

Scott Prenn’s new website went live earlier this week – Scott Prenn are an experienced, strategic fund-raising partnership empowering organisations to fund their future.

We are currently working along side them to develop a Business Plan and another presentation for Project BLUE, following the momentum generated by the film The End of the Line. Project BLUE is a project that will seek to fund marine conservation with income derived from private sources.

One of the many websites we are currently building for our clients has gone live.

www.daylightandsunlight.co.uk was launched last Friday for our client – Daylight and Sunlight UK – who’s highly experienced advisors provide advice to ensure that development plans meet the latest planning requirements and do not infringe upon neighbouring owners’ legal rights to light.

Both Fuse’s entries in the ‘Love Spain, Hate Bullfighting competition’ have made the top 20!

The posters are going to be printed on a large scale, for exhibition and the overall winner and runners up will be announced at the judging parties which will be taking place simultaneously on 22nd October at the Big Chill House in London, and Miscelanea bar in Barcelona.

Fingers crossed!
