Glorious Creative

As James had informed us that we would be having a guest lecture by Glourious creative coming into college soon i thought i would read up on them and have a look at their work online.

Glorious creative is a design agency based in Manchester. They have been named as 1 of the top 5 of the North England design consultancy of the year and describe themselves as '' We are identity specialists who are renowned for creative thinking and craft skills and we enjoy the challenge of problem solving''

I quite liked the work they had produced, imparticularly their project called 'Pay and display ticket' The brief for this project was set by Liverpool and Manchester design initative who decided to hold an exhibition at a NCP car park. The solution to this brief was to generate awareness through word of mouth and Glorious did this by using the location as a direction. Therefore they produced invitations which were created in the style of a parking ticket. I think this is a really clever and effective idea.

I also liked there identity work that they produced for the Rose design awards. Every year before the awards Liverpool and Manchester design iniative hosts a design symposium which is used to create debates about current issues. Glourious have designed the material for this for the past 5 years and created different posters to appeal to the target audience. My favourite is the 'Love or Money' poster as i really like the loose feel of the typography.
