Your message is important. You have mere seconds to grab the viewer’s attention. Whatever your print project is, the visuals and content need to work together in a unified and compelling way to get your message across -- and keep it out of the recycle bin. Hyla Skudder Design has 28 years of experience in the design business, and will work with you to make sure your message gets heard.
This was a newsletter redesign project. The client
wanted to take their Publisher template up a notch to make it more professional looking. But at
the same time, they did not want a glossy or slick look. They wanted something unique, that no one else
would have on another real estate newsletter, but they wanted to maintain a more "down home" look. They wanted
clients to know that they were producing the newsletter themselves and wanted it to project a more intimate feel.
The new template features a custom hand drawn ink illustration featuring a bird's eye view of a suburban neighborhood.
The new template was created in Microsoft Publisher. The hand drawn ink illustration was scanned and
then shaded in Adobe Photoshop.
Work was performed as a contract designer with Franklin Computer Services.
