South Sefton Sixth Form College - Web Design
The Brief
SSSFC asked 4040 Media to create a website that would allow them to be in control of the website content, manage it, add and remove sections as necessary. They wanted the website to look professional whilst being relevant to their target market (Students in high school looking for a sixth form college). SSSFC wanted the design to follow their brand and be similar to their existing literature. The look had to be fresh, interesting, informative and useful.
The Spec
4040 Media provided a HTML/CSS website with a content management system. This would allow SSSFC to add/remove/edit content as and when they like. We created a design that would allow visitors to get to almost and page from any page. This makes navigation of the site straightforward. We created a modern design with rotating content that keeps the site interesting and fresh. We emphasised the great pictures SSSFC had and used video as often as possible to help show what SSSFC is like to students browsing the site.

SpecUlite - Web Design
The Brief
4040 Media were asked to create a website that demonstrated the range of services SpecUlite could offer and showed the scale they were operating at. SpecUlite wanted particular attention to the retail work they had undertaken. The website had to be easy to navigate with simple icons for each service.
The Spec
4040 Media provided a HTML/CSS website with a content management system so that SpecUlite could add and change content as their business evolved. We provided a full blog system that follows the design of the website. This blog can be easily updated by SpecUlite through their content management system we implemented. This helps keep the content fresh on the website and will increase visitor engagement. At SpecUlites request we created easy to understand icon buttons for each service. These are visible on every page except the homepage and news pages. This allows users to quickly get to any of SpecUlite’s service pages from any page they are on.

DMPM Construction - Web Design
The Brief
DMPM wanted a website that showed their professionalism as a building company. They wanted to show visitors that they are a large building company and not a man with a van. They wanted to display projects they have completed showing their range of skills. It was important that the website was easy to navigate and had a strong emphasis on their green construction credentials.
The Spec
4040 Media recommended an HTML/CSS website with 4 different layouts. One for the front page, one for the Sustainable page, one for the case studies, services and past projects pages. The website would be easy to extend with further case studies as each has its own page. This will allow DMPM to grow the site as time goes on. The website is heavily focused around pictures of jobs and past projects. This allows visitors to get a real understanding of what DMPM do and how they do it.

O2 - Local Business Posters
The Brief
4040 Media was asked to create a poster for a local business project for the mobile phone retailer O2. The posters were to be put up in local businesses that had partnered with O2 to offer their employees a discount if they bought from their local store.
The Spec
4040 Media recommended the posters be printed at A1 size on 170gsm gloss stock. This would give a nice quality look to the posters. The gloss would also help bring out the vibrant colours and help catch peoples eye.
The Outcome
The posters came out really well. They were clear and the colours were vibrant and instantly noticeable.
Bibby Electrical - Flyers
The Brief
4040 Media was asked to create an eye catching flyer for a local electricians firm. The flyer was to be handed out around local businesses for them to keep hold of for when they were in need of an electrician. The flyer was to be used as a business generation tool and therefore needed to get their key benefits across effectively.
The Spec
4040 Media recommended the flyer be printed on heavy 400gsm stock and matt laminated on both sides. The reason we suggested this is so that people were more inclined to keep hold of the cards. This would give a quality end result that is synonymous with the quality work of the electricians firm.
The Outcome
The flyers were printed beautifully with a great finish. Our client was very pleased with the result. The electricans have received an excellent return by handing these flyers out to local businesses, so much that they had to stop giving them out for a period of a few weeks as they were receiving too much work back.
Next Steps Nursery - Brochures
The Brief
4040 Media was asked to create a new brochure design for Next Steps Nursery. The design needed to refresh the old brochure, be personal to the setting and convey the values of the nursery. The nurseries brand colour and logo’s were provided, otherwise 4040 Media were given a free reign to create a brochure fitting the nurseries requirements.
The Spec
4040 Media used a selection of real photographs taken at the nursery. We wanted to use the images as large as possible as we felt they were extraordinary and really showed the values, feelings and passion the nursery had for looking after their children. We printed the brochures on good quality 170gsm gloss stock to give a nice weighty feel. The brochures were 16pp A5 saddle stitched to the left hand side. The deep purple colour and excellent images really worked well.
The Outcome
Next steps nursery were extremely happy with the brochures and will be using them for the coming term.
