Squark Design - Visual Brand Storytellers

Michelle and all the wonderful team at Squark have collaborated with Highfields School for a number of years, always producing work which fits the brief perfectly and is of a very high quality. As we have got to know one another, Squark have embraced the Highfields brand and helped us to develop ideas within our philosophy.From the first point of contact to the end result, Squark have always turned work around very quickly, explaining what they can do and within what time frame – also usually including price, which is very helpful from a budget point of view.Inevitably, at times we have asked Squark to work to extremely tight deadlines which they have always done calmly, with good humour and efficiency, keeping us updated throughout the process, always completing within time and never letting us down.Sept 2022Highfields School has been working with Michelle Jones at Squark Designs for around 4 or 5 years. Michelle helps us put our ideas into pictures and has she has been responsible for all the creative work in our recent advertising campaigns, maintaining our house style yet offering new ideas and always keeping to the brief. She turns work around unbelievably quickly as copy deadlines often come at the 11th hour! She is extremely patient when I am not able to give her an accurate brief first time - which is sometimes inevitable as the first draft prompts further ideas!Michelle picks up my messages straight away and will always tell me what her turnaround time is. Even when time has been very tight she has worked around my deadlines and completed the work in good time for me to be able to use it. I would thoroughly recommend Squark Designs to another business.2019

“Michelle delivered a brilliant job of designing our Annual Report. We wanted it to be dynamic, clear and to pull the reader in - it certainly does that. Michelle was great to work with, she listened to our vision and used her talent to find creative ways to make it even better than we imagined. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Squark Design.”(July 17th, 2009)

Michelle surprised everyone with both the quality and speed of her work. She has really helped us by getting up to speed nearly instantly and cutting through a back log of work like a knife through butter!Best of all is that she hasn't been afraid to question workflow and design practices enabling us to make beneficial changes to our systems.I'm sure we will see her again!

Michelle was quickly put on the 'first choice' shortlist following her first project with us. Quick, reliable and creative - a real safe pair of hands, Michelle found her feet immediately like she'd been working with us for ages.Great attention to detail while a real lateral thinker - sometimes hard to find. I'm reluctant to recommend her in case she gets booked up too much, but she certainly deserves the feedback!
