The largest group of credit unions in Atlantic Canada required regional promotion of patronage programs, including creative development, copy, and materials. Parapluie's typographic concept works across multiple media: community communications materials, outdoor display, point-of-sale buttons, staff t-shirts, pull-up displays, electronic banners, credit union websites, and social media tools. more
Teens Now Talk is a magazine that features content that is created by teens. It is wild and fun; and though by its nature it breaks many visual design rules, Parapluie consistently presents the teens' work in a professional, published format that they can be proud of. Character illustrations: Marven Nelligan. more
ACORN – the key organization in Atlantic Canada for organic agriculture – asked Parapluie to build an education kit which would act as an efficient way to share knowledge with a growing community across the region. The large-format display and related materials are well-organized and tastefully extend the ACORN brand identity. more
In the simplest language, credit unions are a "people's bank" — members of the local community deposit their savings in the credit union and the credit union returns that investment to the community.
Some credit unions do this by directly returning dividends to their members in the form of cash.
Parapluie was hired to create a visual program to promote this concept for various credit unions in Atlantic Canada.
It's a great idea, and Parapluie's lively typography reflects how great it is.
Samples here include community communications materials, and point-of-sale buttons and t-shirts.
Other uses include pull-up displays, electronic banners, credit union website banners and Facebook cover and profile images.
The sometimes arcane field of print production is often misunderstood, and is too often left in the hands of individuals who are not experts in the field. This leads to unwanted expenses due to added time and corrections during the printing process. Since reprints are very expensive, we recommend that you use our print production service — in which every print piece has crisp imagery, accurate colours, and is handled by an ink expert. We maintain a craftsperson's commitment to accurate and knowledgeable reproduction of materials in print.
Parapluie offers full-service typesetting of right-to-left scripts such as Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew, and Japanese. This includes print and digital projects, as well as video subtitling services.
After spending a lot of time and money on producing your advertising materials or public announcements, you certainly do not want to neglect a well-thought-out plan for placing these in the most effective settings. Parapluie will work with all media outlets to create a holistic distribution plan that maximizes exposure and minimizes your budget expenditure.
