Till Death Tattoo - Design Distillery
Till Death Tattoo
Like any good tattoo, a good brand should stand the test of time. To achieve this, we took elements of Neo–Traditional tattoo and applied it to contemporary brand design.
Using colours familiar to the Neo–Traditional style, we created a striking brand package using custom illustrations created by the shops very own. Alongside visual identity, merchandise & in-store branding, we refreshed the website to tie it all together.
The focus of the website centres around the artists that make up the studio. For each artist we have an icon logo, biography, along with a full gallery to show case their work. Scroll down to see how we brought Till Death to life.

BlackBird
Blackbird is a multi-disciplined team who can take care of all aspects of your project. Our building, landscaping, maintenance and painting crews are experts in their field, and together offer a fully integrated, professional and cost effective service.
We created a website for BlackBird that really separated their individual services using colour, custom icons, and stylised photography to create their own space on the website. A big part of this website was to show off the beautiful craftsmanship they have to offer. We achieved this through extensive galleries, using animation between photos to make the experience for the user more enjoyable.
Your Local Plumber
Locally owned and operated, Your local Plumber has built a reputation on providing friendly, professional and reliable plumbing, gasfitting, drainlaying and allied services to Auckland’s homes and businesses. The team at Your Local Plumber are committed to improving Auckland, the plumbing industry, and your home or workplace.
We created the Your Local Plumber website with this in mind. Ease of navigation were important, using visual elements – strong colours, custom icons and hierarchy of content. Alongside helpful information to make the user better informed before getting in touch with YLP. Since going live in early 2018, this has been evident with YLP, lowering quoting time, increasing time spent on the website & helping to generate stronger better leads.
Manunui Coastal Estate
We created a small brand & simple one page website for Manunui Coastal Estate – a real estate group showcasing a beautiful part of New Zealand. In creating the logo we wanted a premium yet simplistic feel, the colours of gold, and off-whites where used to represent the amazing surrounding beaches, while the simple “M” monogram logo and the contrasting dark black. Due to the size of the website we really focused on a user experience and layout for the one page website to truly show the full experience of Manunui.
The Proposal Planners
The Proposal Planners is a dedicated service specialising in the orchestration of your once in a lifetime memorable moment.
In creating the brand and website for proposal planners we aimed to embody the experience of the "big day". This is especially seen in the colours of the brand we based around where the memorable moment would take place – the colours that make up New Zealand’s landscape. Their logo is based on an organic view of a diamond ring, we wanted the logo be subtle but also recognisable part of their business.
In creating the website we had to really show the process of the service they provide, in doing so we created custom illustrations showing services, and custom illustrations outlining the journey they are about to take.
Boutique Connection
Boutique Connection provides customers with the best boutique and unique products that are typically hidden away from mainstream stores. The wine is sourced from small vineyards and wineries from world renowned wine districts including Central Otago to Northland and everything in between. Essentially, Boutique Connection provides you with a hub for all things wonderfully boutique.
In creating the logo we wanted to use a strong monogram showing a connection. Fusing the B + C together created an elegant mark that works well throughout the brand. Also side creating the logo we developed unique illustrations, pattern work and colour scheme to fully create the brand identity.
