Hello
Now that the year is in full swing, let’s give our CI and
publication designs a refresh.
An exciting blend of creativity and basic rules goes into creating a design that works. It
involves navigating your organisation’s CI – colours, fonts, logos and legal
requirements – and still creating something original, eye-catching and inviting. A cover
design is successful when it makes you want to discover what’s inside – and a text
design should continue to hold your interest throughout the entire publication.
With a new year comes new ideas, new colours, new shapes and linkages. Click on the
image below to see the fresh colours and combinations for 2025:

In times of uncertainty and stress we often tend to return to the simplicity of the past,
and to designs that have a timeless character. Click on the image below to see five
palettes that speak to that trend:
Now is the perfect time to rethink templates, colours, fonts, and corporate identity
generally – allow COMPRESS.dsl to make 2025 a year of revitalising, energising
and recharging your designs!

‘grief or sorrow’, this translates as morning mourning, or extreme grumpiness early in
the day. Click on the image below for an article to cheer you up:
