Creative Branding
Insights and Stories

Inspired by the work we did for East Herts Gamers and their Charity Games Day we teamed up with a small group of passionate gamers in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire to help them, create a brand new games club - and Tabletop Legends was born!

We were delighted to collaborate with authors Andi Ewington and Erica Marks on the website for their new book Silence of the Dead. The website was designed to lean on the playful, quirky, humour of the novel and to be a home for the wider Bones & Betrayals universe and the authors other works.

Gaming of all kinds has been a passion of ours for many years so we were only too happy to help local game club East Herts Gamers build their club website, design their club identity and help to promote their charity games day event all free of charge.

In the age of AI and DIY design tools like Canva, creating a logo has never been easier - or more misleading. With a few clicks, you can have something that looks decent. But here’s the truth: a logo that looks good at first glance isn’t always a good logo.
