Background

We have designed since 1996 and have traded as mindseed design since 2009.

The retail years

A long part of that time went into South African FMCG retail. Working as an independent studio, the work went into PepsiCo South Africa brand systems: Simba, Lay's, Doritos and Nik Naks, plus joint campaigns with Sasko, KFC and the UEFA Champions League.

A display in a shop has about two seconds and three metres to get its offer across. That work teaches viewing distance and legibility, and those lessons carry into everything else.

Direct clients

Recent direct work includes print and the website for Alchemist Wires, the hi-fi shop and consultation site for Audio Tweak, a new site for Skillfull Trading (accredited mining and industrial training; built, not yet switched over), conference banners and an exhibition stand for Seaboard Trading.

Working with us

  • You brief the people who do the work. Nothing gets lost between departments.
  • Your project stays with the same team from the first call to the final files.
  • If a job is wrong for the studio, you hear that instead of getting a quote.

About the archive

A hard-drive failure some years ago took a lot of archived work with it. This site shows what survived and what clients allow to be shown.

Say what the work has to do, who it is for, and when it has to be finished. A photo and one sentence is enough to start.
