The wall branding is ‘FANTASTIC’ and attracts a lot of attention. I’d like to thank you for the great work all round. From the beginning, and faced with a challenging deadline, everyone at Grin was brilliant. Forthcoming with great ideas, highly accommodating and super flexible as we worked through multiple changes and numerous iterations.

We have been working with GRIN on a major branding and design project. They have worked incredibly closely with us to deliver designs, content and strategies that have exceed the expectations of our briefs and produced fantastic results. Their relationship management has been a real asset in driving our project forwards.

Grin designed the marketing campaign for our WOMEN POWER PROTEST exhibition and it was great working with Kim and the rest of the team – they totally understood our exhibition and our ideas from the get-go. We wanted a campaign that really shouted out unapologetically about feminism and women’s rights, and GRIN managed to achieve this perfectly with their design work. The marketing campaign was incredibly striking and looked amazing in print, on social media, and in outdoor adverts across Birmingham city centre! We really created a buzz with the WOMEN POWER PROTEST marketing campaign and are so happy with the work that GRIN did on this!

Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery

We are a medium size charity in the heart of Birmingham and turned to GRIN in 2010 to support us in creating an image and website to help our work with disabled children and adults. The partnership has grown from strength to strength. GRIN’s creativity and excellent work has helped move us from strength to strength. We highly recommend the whole team and it remains our pleasure to work with such a committed bunch of people. Thank you GRIN.

Working with GRIN has been a real pleasure. The kick off meeting we had at GRIN’s office really set the tone for the whole project. Our organisation was given the space to discuss what we wanted and practical concerns around the rebrand and the website were handled head-on by GRIN whilst also being married with creative suggestions to find what worked for us. Throughout the project the ease of communication with the team has really helped the process to flow. They have really thought about what will work for us and, in my opinion, have found the perfect balance between doing what we have asked and finding a design-led solution that shows us what will work well when we may not have considered it at the outset.
