Cultivate Creative

A St Helens studio for brands, print and WordPress websites

Cultivate Creative works from George Street in St Helens, Merseyside, and sums up its outlook as better design, simply done. The studio says it exists to help a brand look great and act smart, by combining visual design with the right words and the web pages and technical work behind them. It puts weight on a client's own voice, arguing that honest, carefully expressed messages are the ones that hold attention.

Identity, print and signage

Its branding work covers logos and full visual identities, and the graphic design side extends into printed marketing material and signage. Recent branding projects it highlights include a vintage vehicle glamping experience at the Field of Dreams site linked to a well-known comedian, and a bar and kitchen called Two Left Feet, which serves craft beer and artisan pizza. It has also worked on an identity and site for a stone business, an insurance firm and a project business.

WordPress sites and white-label builds

On the web side, the studio designs and builds sites on WordPress, handling the technical work as well as the look of each page. It also builds websites on a white-label basis for other agencies, who then deliver them to their own clients under their own name, and it announces new white-label launches among its news items.

Local and arts clients

The studio sits close to the community it works in. Its recent projects include work with an arts organisation in St Helens and a road transport business preparing for a trade expo, as well as hospitality and insurance clients. Its stated aim is that clients end up with more focus, style and function in how they look, feel and act in front of customers.
