We were asked to create the branding, interior design, signage and oversee the fit-out of the offices of the new CREST (Centre for Renewable Energy & Sustainable Technology) Offices in Enniskillen. The brief was that the Centre needed to represent the ethos of Crest not just visually, but also in it’s use of energy and materials. While our part of the project, relates to the sustainable design of the interior of “The Hub”, we have also included information about the CREST Project itself to further outline the committment to environmental credentials throughout the project.

Creative Media is a boutique design agency that has been successful for over 15 years in the delivery of leading-edge design. Their success is largely down to the passionate, ambitious and talented people involved, but in terms of outcome it is the marriage of people and process that makes them tick. In the years since they began, their staff has evolved and been added to with highly experienced and qualified designers, who can boast a combined total of almost 50 years working in the design industry - indeed 3 of their senior designers have won Irish and international Design Awards and recognition in recent years, giving them the pleasure of making a real change for clients. This experience, allied with their method of working, means they have a client churn of less than 6% per annum - indeed, many of their clients have worked with them from their inception.

The primary objective of the Centre for Renewable Energy and Sustainable Technology (CREST) is to stimulate and facilitate new R&D projects in small businesses. CREST provides industry R&D, demonstration and testing facilities for new renewable energy products and sustainable technologies. The facilities are available to businesses or individuals within Northern Ireland, the border counties of Ireland and Western Scotland who have ideas for new products or process developments but who do not have the physical and/or technical capacity to develop, test and commercialise them. The facilities include laboratory space, testing equipment, demonstration technologies and the assistance of technical staff to help bring ideas and concepts to the next stage of development. Creative Media is a boutique design agency that has been successful for over 10 years in the delivery of leading-edge design. Our success is largely down to the passionate, ambitious and talented people involved, but in terms of outcome it is the marriage of people and process that makes us tick. As a result of our expertise, we are able to offer a design service involving all elements of the industry. We can also provide added-value benefits, such as Web-design, Advertising, Signage, Digital Marketing, Copywriting and Art Direction, as well as our staple offering of design production for print. For us, it’s not just about the design, it’s about getting it right, making it work and producing real results. In today’s marketplace it is even more important than ever that information is focused, relevant, and timely in order to be truly effective.
