After over half a year of sheer dedication RJDA are both proud and thrilled to finally get their hands on a finished copy of the first edition of Balfour Beatty Plant & Fleet Services Product Catalogue.

Lee Day, RJDA’s director who manages the Balfour Beatty account, is celebrating this momentous moment with a proud smile and admits a to small sigh of relief!

“A product catalogue can test the resources of any creative agency. With 308 pages covering 15 separate facets of the Balfour Beatty Plant & Fleet Services business it has been a monumental effort from everybody involved and a good testimony of RJDA’s design, print and production capabilities. The job has taken nearly seven months to come to fruition and the finished article is something Designers Chris Reynolds, Andy Gilmore and the rest of the team can be very proud of.”

For Lynne Shacklock, Balfour Beatty Plant & Fleet Services Head of Marketing and Communications, it’s an immense achievement.

“We always knew that this was going to be a huge assignment and would take some time and determined focus to create and produce. We were literally starting from scratch with a blank canvas, so were able to work very closely with RJDA on images, text and overall layout. Chris and the team have spent hours going through page after page with the finest attention to detail to ensure that everything is just as it should be. I would like to thank everyone at RJDA who has been involved for their help and support over the months. RJDA can be very proud of the final product, we certainly are and the catalogue is already proving an invaluable tool for our customers”

When a client came to us recently we were (well mainly the females here) just cooing over the content!

Hush is a brand new baby photographic company who are about to launch in the Midlands. The clients came to us after a quick internet search for graphic designers in the area.

They wanted a clean, contemporary look that presented the images in the best way possible and that encouraged families to embrace their new relationships and capture the very special times in their young babies lives.

They also wanted SEO to maximize their new business on the web, which is an area our multi media team specilaise in, so they will be looking to grow organically rather than paying per click.

We love the results, as do the owners of Hush Photography!

This week we helped Ross to celebrate his birthday – with a drum roll and a cake!

Ross is a designer in our studio of 10 creative’s and has been with RJDA since leaving Derby University 4 years ago.

His lively personality and imaginative flair make him popular with both clients and work colleagues alike and he frequently uses the drum kit in the corner of the studio to help let off steam after pursuing tight studio deadlines!

Happy Birthday Ross!

The publication of a new Tenants Handbook for Matlock based Dales Housing provided Creative Agency RJDA with the perfect opportunity to substantiate the timely adjective ‘out with the old in with the new…’

A fresh, new 218 page Tenants Handbook was the collaboration and culmination of several months design, print, production and mail fulfillment.

In preference to the previous PVC, ring bound style folders, a paper over board format with magnetic fasteners was chosen – in doing so offering a more eco friendly, modern and contemporary solution – finished to a standard which Tenant Participation Co-Ordinator, Beverley Crowther was delighted with.

“The delivery of the new Tenants Handbook ensures up to date information can be provided to all of Dales Housing’s 3,100 plus tenants on a range of services covering repairs and maintenance to rights, responsibilities and obligations.”
