What we design

Six things we draw, and print.

Each piece is designed with its final size, materials and finish in mind. Design and print production are coordinated after the scope and artwork are reviewed.

01

Identity & logo

A simple logo that works at two inches and twenty feet: two first directions, then we refine the one you choose.

  • Simple logo design, $295
  • Vector redraw of an existing logo, $75
  • Full brand guidelines by custom quote

02

Print layout

Cards, postcards, flyers, rack cards, brochures and menus set with real margins, real bleed and a reading order that works.

  • Business cards, $65
  • Flyers, postcards and rack cards, $95
  • Brochures $175, takeout menus $225

03

Stationery & forms

Letterhead, envelopes and notepads that match, and carbonless forms laid out for the way your team fills them in.

  • Letterhead, envelope or notepad, $55
  • Carbonless form, $110
  • Another name or location, by custom quote

04

Invitations & cards

Weddings, milestones and thank-yous: a flat invitation or a folded card laid out around your wording and photos.

  • Invitation or greeting card, by custom quote
  • Scope and revisions agreed with your quote
  • Template adaptation, $39

05

Signage & large format

Banners, stands, yard signs, posters, magnets and decals designed for the distance they are read from.

  • Sign, banner or poster, $85
  • Retractable banner stand, $110
  • Decal or adhesive graphic, $65

06

Artwork prep & prepress

Have a design already? We check size, bleed and resolution before anything prints, and fix what needs fixing.

  • Print-ready check, free with every order
  • Minor update $25, resize $35
  • Raised UV or foil mask, by custom quote
One V, one drop The Vanolee Design Co. signature: a red brush-stroke V with a single ink drop begins the word Vanolee, set in ink, with DESIGN CO. centred below.

Our own mark

The V is the first letter.

Our signature opens with a red ink V, and that V is the first letter of Vanolee, not a badge beside the name. It shares the baseline with the rest of the word, and the single ink drop belongs to it. The other six letters come from the same brush: rounded starts, angled inner shapes, a hooked l, and a final e that tapers off like the end of a stroke.

How a design job runs

Four short steps.

01

Brief

What it is, who it is for, where it will be seen. Half an hour, in person or on a call.

02

Concepts

Two or three directions on the real format, not a moodboard. You pick one.

03

Refine

Words, sizes and colour settled together. A proof you can hold before we commit.

04

Files & print

Print-ready files, and the print itself if you want it, from the same studio.
