Medium Rare – Bringing home the bacon

Posted March 26th, 2009 by Simon Asbury

Medium Rare have recently added free range bacon to their product list and they asked us to design and supply self adhesive packaging labels. We kept it simple, strong and ultimately, classy using black from their branding, and adding a fantastic photo taken on the Packington Pork farm. 

George from Medium Rare, has other products in the pipeline, but the bacon is the first to market and is sure to be a success.

We’re looking forward to the taste test… especially fitting as a new studiodm ritual seems to be bacon and egg sarnies on a Friday morning! Yum yum pigs bum!

Medium Rare move up a gear!

Last year George Finch came to us to design the livery for his delivery vans.

mediumrare_vanThey already had the usual logo and contact details but needed more…  due to the extensive mileage covered, supplying their growing customer base, the vans are a great way to advertise their high quality free range meat products.  By incorporating logos, a list of products, a ‘free range meats’ strapline and the all important

contact details, the vans will not be missed… especially with the photos of the farmers with their animal livestock.  These photos set the perfect eye catching scene with one side of the van displaying Packington Poultry and the other side, Packington Pork.

mediumrare_van2When George from Medium Rare and his colleague Alec from Packington Poultry collected the completed van they were very, very impressed.  Photos were taken and added to his recent website restyle and have been incorporated into his latest newsletter.  In an email George wrote, “The van looks really smart, a massive improvement on the current vans.”

There are further vans to complete this year and they may feature some of the impressive photos, shot on an atmospheric misty dawn, of the other farms.  We look forward to seeing the whole fleet completed.

Romney Lamb – Free to range and free to roam

Posted March 4th, 2009 by Dom McGrail

We’ve recently met up with James Coates, a young farmer who is rearing his own flock of Romney sheep in the fields around  Barton-under-needwood. He is committed to a simple, free range and ‘natural as possible’ approach to raising his herd. We’ve created a logo for James to use on his packaging, web page, letterhead and flyers.

Free to range and free to roam

The lamb will be available from August and is being sold in half lamb boxes. We’re looking forward to trying some :o ))

You can see a little more and get their contact details on their web page.
