THE PUNK'S NEW SERVICE
CUSTOM DESIGNED TEAMWEAR

In the fast-paced world of sports, standing out on the field or court is essential for any team. That's where my custom designed teamwear comes into play, offering football kits, rugby kits, basketball kits, and more, all meticulously crafted to elevate your team's performance and style. The PUNK is proud to introduce my latest service, providing fully customisable teamwear that reflects your team's identity and spirit.

My method of production sets my gear apart – sublimated printing. This cutting-edge technique allows me to create vibrant, long-lasting designs that are as unique as your team. Sublimation printing involves transferring dye onto fabric using heat, resulting in colours that become a part of the fabric itself. This process offers numerous benefits, making it the preferred choice for creating high-quality teamwear.

One of the key advantages of sublimated printing is its ability to produce vivid, eye-catching designs. Unlike traditional printing methods, sublimation printing allows for unlimited colour options and intricate detailing, ensuring that your team's kit stands out on the field. Whether you're looking for bold graphics or subtle patterns, sublimation printing brings your vision to life with unparalleled clarity and precision.

Durability is another hallmark of sublimated printing. The dye is permanently infused into the fabric, making it resistant to fading, peeling, and cracking, even after multiple washes. This ensures that your teamwear maintains its vibrant appearance and professional look season after season, saving you time and money on replacements.

Customisation is at the heart of the PUNK'S service, and sublimated printing offers endless possibilities. From choosing colours and designs to adding logos and player names, my teamwear is fully customisable to suit your team's preferences and requirements. Whether you're representing a football club, rugby team, or basketball squad, my custom designed teamwear allows you to create a uniform that unites your team and instils a sense of pride.

In addition to football kits, rugby kits, and basketball kits, the PUNK offers a wide range of other teamwear options, including training tops, jackets, and shorts. All of our products are made from high-quality materials and are designed to withstand the demands of athletic performance. With our custom designed teamwear, your team will look and feel their best, both on and off the field.

The PUNK'S custom designed teamwear is the perfect choice for teams looking to level up their style and performance. With sublimated printing, the PUNK offers vibrant designs, unmatched durability, and endless customisation options. So why wait?

6 Principles of good logo design

Hello shaven apes, troglodytes & lizards of the internet! This is the first of a monthly blog where Ill be talking about all things design, print & punk.

For this first one I want to talk to you about the six key principles of logo design. Whether you're a seasoned business or just starting out, these principles are crucial for creating a memorable and effective logo that truly stands out.

Vamos!

1.  Simplicity. As the old saying goes, less is more. A simple, uncluttered logo is often the most effective, as it can be easily recognized and remembered. It's important to remember that your logo is meant to be a visual representation of your brand or business, so it should be instantly recognizable and easy to remember. Keep it clean, keep it simple.

2.  Originality. Your logo should be unique, distinct, and unlike anything else out there. It's tempting to look to other successful logos for inspiration, but copying or imitating them is a big nitch - nitch. Instead, focus on creating something that truly represents your brand or business and sets you apart from the competition. Be bold, be creative, and be original.

3. Versatility. Your logo should be able to be used across a variety of mediums and formats, from print to digital to signage and beyond. This means designing a logo that can be easily scaled up or down without losing quality or clarity. It should also be versatile enough to work in both color and black-and-white, and on a variety of backgrounds. A versatile logo is essential for building a strong and recognizable brand identity.

4. Scalability. Your logo should be able to be scaled up or down without losing any of its impact or legibility. This means designing a logo that is both vector-based and high resolution, so it can be easily resized without losing quality. A scalable logo is essential for ensuring that your brand or business looks professional and consistent across all platforms and mediums.

5. Balance and proportion . A well-designed logo should be balanced and visually pleasing, with elements that are proportionate and harmonious. This means paying attention to things like the size and placement of different elements within the logo, as well as the overall composition and shape. A balanced logo is essential for creating a strong and memorable visual identity.

6. Timelessness. Your logo should be designed to stand the test of time, and not be tied to any particular trend or fad. A timeless logo is one that is both classic and contemporary, with elements that are both current and enduring. This means avoiding trendy fonts or graphics, and focusing on creating a logo that will still look great years from now. A timeless logo is essential for building a strong and enduring brand identity.

In conclusion, these six principles of logo design – simplicity, originality, versatility, scalability, balance and proportion, and timelessness – are essential for creating a memorable and effective logo that truly stands out. By keeping these principles in your mind when the PUNK is designing your logo and coming up with ways to incorporate them, you can ensure that your brand or business is represented in the best possible light, and that your logo is both visually appealing and highly recognizable. So take the leap , be pro-active, get InTouch with the PUNK and let me set my grubby little mind on the task to be creative, and design a logo that truly represents your brand or business.

 

Or just steal something off the internet...

The importance of printed advertising.

Alright, you lot, listen up! I'm here to tell you about the importance of printed advertising for small businesses. Now, I know what you're thinking, "Printed advertising? That's old school!" But let me tell you, there's still a place for it in today's digital age, especially for businesses in small towns like Scunthorpe.

Now, when it comes to printed advertising, you've got to make it stand out. None of that bland, generic rubbish you've found online and copied. You want your flyers, business cards or any other prints ( I do some lovely beer mats ) to grab people's attention and make them say, "Wow, that's cool!" That's where my grubby little mind comes in handy. I can help you create a unique look that sets you apart from the competition.

And let me tell you, competition can be tough in a small town like Scunthorpe. you've got to do everything you can to get noticed, and good prints is one of the ways to do it. You can put your flyers and business cards up in local shops, cafes, and community centres. People will see them when they're out and about and maybe even take one home with them. Plus, when you're at events like fairs and markets, having a stack of flyers and cards to hand out is a great way to spread the word about your business.

But here's the thing, it's not just about getting noticed. You want people to remember you too. You want your flyers and cards to have a look that's memorable and unique. Something that makes people think of your business every time they see it. That's how you build brand recognition.

Now, with everyone addicted to their phones these days you may think its all about digital advertising , which is true ,digital advertising definitely has its place. But here's the thing, it's easy for digital ads to get lost in the sea of information out there. Plus, not everyone is online all the time. But if someone has a flyer or business card sitting on their desk, fridge or notice board at work they're going to see it every day. That's a constant reminder of your business right there.

And don't forget about the personal touch. When you hand someone a flyer or business card, and they see your handsome face and cheeky smile... you're making a personal connection with them. It's a chance to talk about your business and answer any questions they might have. That kind of personal connection can be hard to achieve through digital advertising alone.

So there you have it... 500 or so words on the importance of printed advertising, just remember one thing..

Printed advertising may seem old school, but it's still an important part of any small business's marketing strategy. And if you want to make sure your flyers and business cards stand out, don't forget to bring in the PUNK to melt those eyeballs!

Mascot Logos

So, let's talk about what a mascot logo design is. Essentially, it's a logo that features a character, animal or object that represents your brand. Think of the Michelin Man or Tony the Tiger. These mascots have become iconic representations of their respective brands, and they're instantly recognizable. That's the power of a mascot logo design.

Now, you might be thinking, " I'm just a small business in Scunthorpe. I don't need a custom made mascot logo design, I can just nick something off google." Well, let me tell you, a small business like yours (yea you reading this now) can benefit from a mascot logo design. In fact, it can be the difference between standing out in a sea of competitors or getting lost in the shuffle.

Here's why

A mascot logo design done right is what's known as sticky...sticky like that jar of mango chutney at the back of the cupboard. It sticks in people's mushy little minds. When someone sees your mascot, they'll remember your brand, also when people see a product associated with your brand...they remember your mascot. And that's exactly what you want. You want people to think of your business when they need a product or service you offer. Plus, a mascot logo design can be used on everything from business cards and flyers to PVC banners and more. It's versatile and can be used in a variety of marketing materials.

Now, let's talk about how the PUNK can help you with your mascot logo design. I'm a Scunthorpe-based graphic designer that specializes in creating unique and memorable print media, digital graphics & logos for small businesses. The PUNK understands that standing out in a crowded market can be hard work, which is why I take the time to get to know your business and create a logo that truly represents your brand.
 

But the PUNK doesn't just stop at mascot logo designs, either. I can create everything from your logo, sort your social media pages out & get them looking tip top & on brand. Also business cards, flyers ,PVC banners and branded clothing.

So, if you're a small business in Scunthorpe or the surrounding area, and you're looking for a way to stand out from the competition, consider a mascot logo design from Graphic Punk. It could be the key to unlocking success for your business.

Say no to cookie cutter logos!

"Can you have a look at my logo and see if you can improve it... I made it on Canva "

 ....Yes I can tell.

Lincolnshire...In a world where conformity is the enemy and creativity reigns supreme, having a unique and functional logo is your battle cry. Graphic Punk is here to whip your brand's arse into shape with designs that'll make your competition wet their knickers!

When it comes to your graphic design arsenal, the logo is your warpaint. It's the symbol that tells the world who you are, and more importantly, that you're not just another faceless cog in the machine. The PUNKS not interested in blending in with the crowd. 

Your logo should scream your identity louder than that  Dylan Mulvaney bloke on those bud light cans.

Graphic design isn't about putting a few pretty pictures together and calling it a day. It's about crafting a visual war cry that echoes through the minds of your customers. The PUNKS design process is a spiders web of ideas, cultural influences and of course PUNK.

I'll be honest...I normally sit down, guzzle a pint or two of LA GRAN STELLA, and hash out concepts that'll have your rivals quaking in their boots. And something that most people miss or don't fully understand is I'll tailor it to your client base...not what your mum thinks looks cute or your birds favourite colour.

Alright then...so you've got the eyeball melting logo – now what? Business cards and flyers I reckon..

These aren't just pieces of paper...they're your guerrilla warriors in the field. Graphic Punks designs won't just showcase your logo, they'll command attention. Imagine handing out a business card that's like a mini poster, or distributing flyers that look so good, they'll literally melt the face of all who see them.

When it comes to advertisement boards, I don't mess about either. Together we're taking over the streets of Scunthorpe and turning them into a battleground of visual anarchy. Your logo won't be just another ad lost in the mean streets of Scunthorpe; it'll be a statement that demands to be seen and remembered. Graphic Punk's designs are the Molotov cocktails of advertising – explosive and impossible to ignore.

But why stop there? Let your customers become walking billboards for your brand! My printed and embroidered clothing will have people walking round the town...sipping pints in Bluebell, farting their way round the frozen section in Tesco or docking fags off Asbhy high street all the while brainwashing all those who see them into loving your brand...its all about repetitive exposure for maximum recognition. 

So, there you have it, I've not had chance to write one of these for a while ...business is on the up and Im short on free time.

 So to summarize my rambling and probable misspelt gibberish

Your small business needs more than just templated logo... it needs a graphic rebellion that shakes out all the mundane, repetitive and un imaginative copy paste work to be found on sites like Canva. With Graphic Punk, you wont fit in...I'm here here to make you stand out, disrupt the norm, and create a visual uproar that Scunthorpe won't forget. It's time to unleash the power of a unique and functional logo that's not just a " that will do " squiggle...  it's part of your brand identity.

 Get in touch with Graphic Punk today and let's make some cool sh*t.
