One of my tasks this week was to design a poster for an event at this years Duns Play Fest. It is a one man show featuring John McEwen (Duns Players) called Y.C.A.G.W.Y.W. (You Can't Always Get What You Want). It is about a dying mans quest to do something for his community that he doesn't even like that much. I used a font that had a bit of punch to it. The client was very happy with the design.

Poster for Duns Word Weavers
Word Weavers are a creative writing group who meet in Duns. They are giving a performance of monologues at this years Duns Play Fest. This week I designed a poster for their event in May. I chose to do a Mondrian style design poster because I thought it fitted well with their title 'In The Frame'. The client was very pleased with the end result.

New combined leaflet for Duns Flowerbed Trail
Last month I designed a new leaflet for Duns Flowerbed Trail. It combines the two old leaflets into one A3 folded to DL size leaflet. The map fold leaflet now has more information about Keeping Duns Blooming Marvellous and the map is in the centre pages. All the copy about each flowerbed is now on the centre pages. There is also additional info about the new Beacon bed in Duns park. The cover is much the same as the previous version. The leaflets were printed last week and the client is very happy with the finished result. They were printed on uncoated paper.

New Sign for Grantshouse Community Council
This week I completed a sign for Grantshouse Community Council. The sign is going to be situated at the EV charging point in the village. The purpose of the design is to highlight a few locations in the area, like the Cedar cafe, public toilets, glade walk and the play park. My client was very pleased with the design and it is now in production.
