Graphic Design in CorkIreland's pharma & tech heartland.
Cork is Ireland's second city — a pharma, medical-device and tech powerhouse anchored by Apple's European HQ and a thriving SME base.
Cork has hosted Apple's European HQ at Hollyhill since 1980 and is home to Pfizer, GSK, Janssen, Eli Lilly, and a long list of indigenous food, drink and maritime firms. The Cork harbour cluster supports more than 7,000 pharma jobs, and the Tyndall National Institute keeps the city on the global semiconductor map.

Local SMEs served
Citywide
Centre, Mahon, Douglas, Ballincollig, harbour
Cork's commercial fabric is split between large-employer satellites in Mahon, Ballincollig and Ringaskiddy, and an independent SME scene rooted in the city centre, Douglas and the harbour towns. A digital partner that gets both sides of that economy is a real edge.
Why a Cork-aware partner matters
We've worked with Cork-based pharma suppliers, hospitality groups, retail brands and professional services firms. We understand the rhythm of Cork procurement, the importance of word-of-mouth in the local SME scene, and how to optimise for searches that span the city, the harbour towns and the wider county.

Technologies & Tools We Use
The modern stack behind every graphic design in cork project we deliver.
Use cases we fix
Real problems. Direct solutions.
Inconsistent brand visuals
Your logo, colours, and fonts vary across channels — making your brand look unprofessional.
We create a full brand identity system with guidelines that keep everything consistent wherever it appears.
Outdated brand identity
Your current logo and visuals feel dated and no longer reflect what your business has become.
We modernise your identity — refreshing typography, colour, and assets while preserving brand recognition.
No brand guidelines
New staff, designers, or agencies apply your brand inconsistently because there are no rules to follow.
We create a comprehensive brand guidelines document covering usage, colour, type, and do's and don'ts.
Launching a new business
You're starting from scratch and need a complete visual identity before you go to market.
We build your full identity from logo to guidelines — everything you need to launch with confidence.
Campaign assets take too long
Creating marketing assets for each campaign is slow because there's no reusable system.
We build editable templates in Canva, Figma, or Adobe that your team can use independently for every campaign.
Multi-location brand inconsistency
Multiple locations or franchises apply your brand differently, diluting recognition.
We create a scalable brand system with clear rules that works consistently across all locations and teams.
