A little bit about us
Pixel � Dot is an independent graphic and web design consultancy,
with offices based in London and the South West, UK.
Officially founded in 2014 by friends, Barney Stephens and
Helen Wright, Pixel � Dot work for a wide range of clients
across various sectors; from start-ups to established companies,
musicians to hedge funds.
Between us, we have over 14 years experience in the graphic design
industry; Barney is an expert in all things digital, whereas Helen’s
strengths lie in branding and design for print (hence Pixel � Dot!).
We love to work in close collaboration with our clients, ideally
right from the start – believing that the best work comes from
great communication and a relationship that is built to last.
Over the years we have established a strong network of specialists,
such as photographers, illustrators and web programmers.
So no matter what you need, we’ve got it covered – and neither
of us are shy of learning new skills.
James
Rhodes
James Rhodes is a famous concert pianist,
known for his quirky style and rebellious
attitude towards the classical music industry.
James asked Pixel � Dot to develop his existing
website to incorporate a content management
system (CMS), increase responsiveness and
feature new functions including a news page
and a shop.
We rebuilt the site from the ground up,
refreshing it’s style with updated graphics
and typography. It is fully responsive to
support the high-volume of traffic James
receives and is based on WordPress,
enabling him to update it with ease.
“I was looking for a complete website
overhaul - design, build and management
and Pixel � Dot exceeded my wildest
expectations. They came in on time and on
budget, were available out of office hours
for urgent tweaks and are consistently
professional, good value and proactive.
Superb.” – JAMES RHODES, PIANIST

Flubit
Flubit is a London-based tech firm which
offers buyers lower prices for any product
they want to buy online.
They approached Pixel � Dot when they
first started, looking for an identity that
would match their cheeky, disruptive style
of business. We worked closely with them to
create an entire suite of marketing materials
and brand assets including the logos, a
letterhead, business cards, newsletters and
comps slips. We were also asked to design
the first version of their website and platform.
Flubit has since gone on to take the
e-commerce world by storm and is now
considered one of the top e-commerce
sites in Europe.
“Pixel � Dot was key to Flubit’s early success,
and the identity they created has become
a huge part of who we are today. They
instantly understood who we were and
what we stood for.” – BERTIE STEPHENS,
FOUNDER AND CEO

Cornelian
Capital
Cornelian Capital is a London-based
investment firm that specialises in the East
African frontier market and real-estate
markets of developed countries.
Cornelian Capital wanted a website designed
and built with the user in mind, this meant
ensuring that the site was fully responsive
and easy to update in order to improve its
accessibility for current and potential investors.
By working in close partnership with the client,
a content management system (CMS) already
favoured by the team was incorporated to
allow their immediate and unassisted use
of the site. The final design, developed to
compliment the company’s existing logo,
brand, and colour palette, was a clean,
simplistic and smart product.
“Barney and Helen designed and
implemented our entire site. They understood
our needs and the ethos of the firm and this
has come through perfectly in the site they
created. We have very much enjoyed working
with them, finding them both professional
and understanding. As and when we need
updates and changes I will certainly use
Pixel and Dot.” – FREDDIE TUCKER,
ANALYST � PROJECTS MANAGER

Marshfield
Farm Ice
Cream
Dawn and Will of Marshfield Farm in Wiltshire
have been making ice cream for the last 25
years. The family-run business, which started
out with a small herd of 50 cows back in the
1970’s, now produces delicious ice cream for
sellers all over the world.
Pixel � Dot have worked closely with Dawn
and Will to update their marketing materials
to incorporate their recently updated logo and
typographic style. Our priority was to ensure
that their client-facing collateral represented
their product as high quality, without losing
sight of Marshfield’s friendly persona.
“It’s always a pleasure working with Pixel �
Dot. They seem to know exactly what I’m
looking for - often before I really know what
it is that I want! Helen and Barney get a
grasp of the task right away, then simplify
my thoughts into a coherent and fabulous
design creation. We really have had so many
positive comments from customers on the
designs that they have done - they’ve been
a great find!” – DAWN HAWKING, OWNER

Tea Times
Trading
Tea Times Trading Ltd.’s three flagship brands
Tick Tock, Dragonfly, and Eleven O’Clock are
rooted in an unbroken family tradition of tea
expertise that dates back to the 19th century.
The challenge was to unify Tea Times Trading’s
three distinct sub-brands into one booklet,
whilst still reflecting their unique look and feel.
The resulting brochure was made up of
three tabbed sections, each representing a
different brand. This clever design allowed
customers to instantly access each section
from the first page, rewarding readers with
an engaging experience.
“We’ve worked with Barney and Helen lots over
the last year on our two major brands - Tick
Tock and Dragonfly Tea. They are a great
duo! From a super-urgent trade brochure, to
web banners, newsletters, and lots of printed
materials, they’ve both been brilliant to work
with. They are organised, efficient, reliable,
creative and patient (we are constantly
changing our minds!) - I always know I am
in safe hands when working with them. They
are also really kind in giving general advice
to me too!” – ROSANNA MAYHEW, MARKETING

The Peninsula
Residences
The Peninsula Residences is an impressive new
property development in Tanzania, Eastern
Africa. Owed to the trusted reputation of the
project’s developers, Cornelian Capital, the
apartments have been snapped up by large
oil and mining companies operating in and
around the African Great Lakes Region.
In order to appeal to The Peninsula
Residences’ affluent international clientele,
the identity for the development needed
to combine western quality with traditional
African influences.
Nature, Tanzanite and Architectural themes
were explored, with the final design taking
inspiration from the ornate carvings of
Zanzibar’s Stone Town. These intricate
decorations were developed into a single
elegant logo mark and subsequently adapted
to produce a supporting pattern.
