Whilst everyone in the design industry is watching the AI landscape carefully, after the recent inclusions of generative AI in Photoshop and Illustrator this year, we look ahead with optimism and curiosity. Every design agency wants to be better, smarter and more efficient. AI can certainly provide some solutions. Digitally-lead agencies may choose go down the path of creating their own AI software and AI-driven services, and they will benefit in the first phase against those who resell third-party software. However it's important to remember not to over-commit or jump too early as the predictions are still showing that media volume run by AI will only be a small percentage of the overall workload for a while yet.

SpeeDx approached Fresco Creative for help overhauling their website in the lead up to their launch in the USA. They identified that their primary users were diagnostic lab directors, clinicians, industry/academic and patients/general public. These users were finding it difficult to learn about the company and the topic of resistance-guided therapy – particularly disease areas and corresponding diagnostic products created by SpeeDx, available to patients. We developed a modern site with interactive pie charts and bar graphs to improve the UX and layering and animated sliders to add depth and movement to the design.

We improved the typographic hierarchy and reorganised the sitemap to reduce page length and simplify navigation. Rather than having a vast collection of disease/product types we introduced overview pages which grouped similar diseases by ‘type’ – such as Respiratory, STIs etc – to help users find what they were looking for and sub-divide their many disease areas. The issue of choosing imagery to represent diseases was addressed by showing the microscopic level of the diseases, rather than patients or symptoms. They also required geo-location triggers/page hiding for some products that were not available in the USA, which was successfully delivered. The site was well-received and deemed a vast improvement on their previous iteration, bringing them up to date and allowing the brand to hold their own in the competitive global arena of resistance guided therapy.

“Thanks for all the great work together and supporting us creating the new website, it looks amazing.” – Katalin, SpeeDx Diagnostics

The marketing and branding efforts of a not-for-profit organisation plays a critical part in the overall growth, message, achievement of mission and sustainability of the organisation and it almost always determines where people choose to donate their hard-earned money. Donations which have been made to help make a societal impact need to be allocated wisely, we understand NFPs need to be discerning about how best to spend this. Driving social change demands time and effort is spent with brand awareness and championing a unified team of people around a common goal. Fresco has years of experience working for NFPs and understands the importance of impactful strategic design that maximises marketing budgets.

Finding a way to express your NFP’s unique culture, goals, successes and even failures is crucial to success. Investment in branding is an investment in future success and NFP’s have a lot more at stake than your average organisation.

When it comes to Aged Care good branding offers so much more than just profits. With a decade of experience working with this industry, Fresco has created strategic branding that ensured a connection to both the resident and their families. Fresco has created campaigns that have inspired loyalty and trust and that has engaged, informed and supported its customers.

As with all industries an effective brand for Aged Care differentiates itself from its competitors, and highlights what it can offer that others in the industry do not. Communicating what specialist services are on offer that isn’t offered anywhere else combined with the years of experience and service in the care industry all build a brand persona that the customer can trust and depend on. Fresco can ensure your brand communicates the mission and values of your company and aims to align that vision with resident’s needs. We will ensure your branding connects to not only the mind but to the heart.

There are many reasons why branding and marketing for the healthcare industry is the cornerstone for success, but it’s important that a professional creative agency that is skilled and experienced is engaged to undertake this process with you. An agency with expertise in this field will be able to drill down into your core mission and values and be able to communicate this with a brand that has both relevance and longevity and they will understand what touch points will then be the most effective for your target market.

While the prevalence of image libraries has undeniably transformed the landscape of graphic design, proclaiming the death of the art of the photoshoot may be premature. Image libraries provide a vast pool of readily available, high-quality visuals that can save time and resources. However, they come with a trade-off - generic and often overused imagery that lacks the uniqueness and authenticity that a carefully crafted photoshoot can bring. The art of the photoshoot involves capturing the essence, style and brand identity of a subject in a way that’s impossible to replicate with stock images.

Your website is a valuable marketing tool. Think of it as employing a round-the-clock salesperson! Customers can find out about your services and products anytime the topic springs to mind, wherever they happen to be. It should explain your business, convey your ethos, appeal to your customers and be fast and easy-to-use.

Customers these days want to check you out quickly before they commit to handing over their hard earned cash – so a succinct and attractive site is everything. Keeping up with technology shows agility and innovation. People are increasingly web-savvy and can recognise an old, clunky website in a flash – they will leave in 2 seconds if it’s not in line with what they are expecting to see. A good website communicates your business honestly, stylishly and with minimal fuss.

Fresco designs and develops WordPress websites that you can manage yourself once it’s all set up. You can keep ongoing costs to a minimum but with the comfort of knowing that we can always be called upon for help when you need it … or if you want to add some bells and whistles down the track! We can jazz up an existing site or start afresh and set one up from scratch!

Fresco Creative has been designing websites for Sydney companies from a wide range of industries for years. With over 20 years’ in operation, we have seen websites evolve substantially over time and have a tried and tested approach to website design and development. We can guide the project from start to finish – we know what must be included and what should be left to the imagination. User experience (UX) and Accessibility (image tagging, contrast checking etc) is essential in planning a website and we will talk you through best practice and ensure your site is easy and enjoyable to navigate.

We are a small Sydney graphic design agency with low overheads which allows us to bill for the time it takes, not for the number of people in the room.
