New year, new design for Shine On
A fresh year brings a new start for Marie Curie Cancer Care’s supporter magazine, Shine On. Revamped with a complete design overhaul, it looks better than ever. Of course some things don’t change – Shine On is still full of great editorial that will inspire thousands of readers to make a new start this New Year and make a difference for this very worthy cause.
New talent lands at Northstar

Go Ape brings the outdoors indoors
Sometimes our clients ask us to make magazines – and sometimes they ask us to make vast banners to hang 50 feet up in the air. Go Ape are always looking for adventure, so when they asked us to come up with a creative concept for some experiential marketing they were doing at this weekend’s Outdoors Show, we jumped (sorry) at the chance. The result is Zip 500 – The World’s Longest Indoor Zip-Wire. We created banners, hoardings, a mobiliser, floor tiles, stickers and even a golf sign, all to drive people to Go Ape’s stand and to engage show visitors in the brand and Go Ape’s 2012 activities. Watch a video of Go Ape’s Outdoors Show zip-wire here.
Calibre comes in on time
Everyone’s talking about luxury watches – seems you can’t read a magazine or paper without coming across editorial about the world’s finest timepieces. Northstar has been producing marketing collateral for retailer Watches of Switzerland for a decade. The latest issue of Calibre landed this week – it’s every bit as beautiful as the watches it showcases and we’re really rather chuffed with it.
