Logo Design

Building brand identity

Designing a logo is an important part of any business. It is instantly recognisable and translates across all languages. A good logo provides a quick visual reference and captures the essence of your business for your customers to love and return to.   

“A logo doesn’t sell (directly), it identifies.” —Paul Rand

Don’t take our word for it…

See what our clients say

Sanphire just knows what you need

Lisa is a customer of Sprint Auto (Caroline is now also) and in casual conversation I happened to ask what she did….it all began there. So glad because now we have an amazing, professional website. Both Lisa and Caroline are a joy to work with.

Niki McCrea

Sanphire went to great lengths to understand our business

Lisa and Caroline are the creative and articulate faces of Sanphire Design. They spent a great deal of time getting to know Blue Moon Event Design; what we do and our core values before transforming our old website and significantly boosting our Google presence online.

Rachael Lindsay

A thorough understanding of our specific business needs has been the key

Salto Gym have been a client of Sanphire Design now for approximately three years and during this time we have been extremely satisfied by the excellent and efficient services provided. Lisa and her team are very dedicated and passionate about what they do which is exemplified by their unrivalled customer support.

Mandy McMaster

The Real Deal, a Web Design Team Who Listen

WalkitOffNI logo
I have worked with Sanphire Design for 3 years and during this time I have been consistently impressed with the versatility and creativity of the design as well as the extensive knowledge shown and generously shared.

Nikki Elliott

Sanphire is a company to do business with in confidence of success, excellent value – and exemplary values

ISE Logo final
The purpose – of redesigning the logo of the Irish School of Ecumenics to mark its 50th anniversary – was fulfilled in every aspect, by Sanphire, with attention attuned to vision and to every detail of the project. Lisa Catherwood  grasped the concept of ISE’s logo and motto, devised and revised design alternatives in double-quick fashion.

Geraldine Smyth

Helped us to visualise with great insight

ISE Logo final
I am very grateful to Sanphire Design for creating the brilliant logo image for Celebrating the Irish School of Ecumenics at 50. Lisa is not only a great designer but also a very thoughtful person. During a couple of the Zoom sessions, and through several strings of emails, she gave great attention to what we were describing, and helped us to visualise what we want to express, with great insight.

Dr Dong Jin Kim

It has been a joy to work with Sanphire Design

Novaes Ballet School
It has been a joy to work with Sanphire Design developing the image for my Ballet School since its early days to now. Lisa has the skills to take care of the technical side of my website and the artistic talent to create the art work in logos, information folders, posters, banners, cards and certificates.

Clare Novaes

Very Professional

Hennessy IT Consulting Logo
The Sanphire Design team – and in particular Lisa Catherwood – helped us to develop our web page starting with not much more than a logo. Lisa was very thorough in asking all the right questions to develop what we think is a dynamic site with a nice blend of images and text.

Paula Francis

We are delighted with the professional approach

web hosting for powerbooker.co.uk
From the first 5 minutes of chatting with Lisa Catherwood about what we at POWER BOOKER wanted from our website, I knew that it would be delivered and enhanced. We are delighted with the professional approach they have taken and the guidance provided.

Ken McCracken

One very happy customer

Hidden Huntley logo
From start to finish, my experience with Sanphire was exceptional. Lisa and her team guided me through every step with patience, professionalism, meticulous attention to detail and a knack for getting precisely the feel I wanted for my website.

Antonia Malcolm

The service and attention to detail is excellent

LX Day Nursery logo
I have used the team at Sanphire Design for both of my businesses. The service and attention to detail is excellent. Their design ideas are innovative and eye-catching. I receive compliments all the time about my website and logo.

Alex Skelton
LX DAY NURSERY

I wanted to be able to have a say in the development of the site and logos

Saltwater Life Logo Design
When I was looking for a company to build my website and create a logo for my marine education initiative, Saltwater Life, a personal ethical approach was key. I wanted to be able to discuss my ideas and my work and have a say in the development of the site and logos.

Lauren Smith

A capacity and willingness to think outside the box

ISE Logo final
It is with very great pleasure that I email to record how thoroughly satisfactory it was working with you to create a Logo to mark the celebrations of the Irish School of Ecumenics at 50. It was an experience that demonstrated superbly your design skills, your capacity and willingness to think outside the box.
