WE ARE GRAFIX GARAGE

WE CARE.

You’re not just a number, every project receives our full personalised attention. We pride ourselves on being directly available to discuss your project at any stage of its development and for ongoing support.

WE DELIVER.

At Grafix Garage we understand that a vehicle is of no use without a destination. Our systemised approach ensures we will get you where you need to go on time, every time.

WE CREATE.

Just as every client is different, so is every project. We see no two jobs as the same and strive to deliver unique outcomes that will differentiate you from your competitors.

ABOUT US

It has become apparent to us over the last 20 years of designing that the most powerful tool you can utilise to elevate you above your competitors is the quality of your branding. Good presentation is what helps your customer understand your product and differentiates it from your competitors.

Design is not rocket science, the only question you need to ask is –  is it good?

In an age of mediocrity, the politically correct dumbing-down and dilution of the brand and its message are endemic to mass marketers and social media “experts”. Treating your clientele as cattle will not gain any loyalty or true favour. If you genuinely want to engage your clients, treat them intelligently and in the way you would like to be treated.

Grafix Garage specialise in helping you reach a broader audience through hand crafted, bespoke design. We are driven to help you perform and never solve your needs with cookie cutter, same-same templates.  Every project is unique and offers a fresh challenge, every solution is obtained through our extensive experience, proven track record and talented team. We provide a full suite of design, web, multimedia, photographic and illustration services. Working with clients from small business through to large scale government departments and corporate sectors has evolved our philosophy of delivering high end customised results within realistic affordable budgets.

We make art perform.

COFFEE LOVE

If you love coffee and live in or near West End, Brisbane, this guide is to help you enjoy that perfect brew. Our goal is to help you find the best coffee available and to achieve this as accurately as possible we will apply common scientific practice in our assessment.

To keep our results a reliable as possible our benchmark coffee is a double shot flat white with one sugar, we make a very competent brew in our own studio, using a basic Breville Espresso machine, Blackstar coffee (Revolution Blend), and microwaved milk. It isn't fancy to look at but it's a very tasty coffee regardless and we give our selves a four out of five bean rating.

It is our belief that many factors influence the flavour of your coffee, it's not just the bean. The milk, cup, temperature, flourish, price and service are other factors that influence the coffee experience and we will be scrutinising them all.

Feel free to contact us if you think we: caught you on a bad day; are completely full of shit; or simply want us to try your local.

It's all about the coffee.

TESTIMONIALS

"I have known and worked with Grafix Garage as a public and private sector client. In the decade that I have known Craig Litchfield and his team, I have posed various challenges all which have been met with talent, patience and professionalism. Their work is edgy, fun and tasteful but what really sets Grafix Garage apart is their uncanny ability to wade through the waffle and present you with exactly what you are after.
Pure genius!"

Amanda Childe-Freeman, Boutique Citrus

Neil Damerow, Workscan

Graham Bliss

"The Grafix Garage team have always delivered design and production that exceeded my expectations. Their design isn't just great to look at, it is built to perform.

I frequently have colleagues and customers offering comments like "Great creative!" and "Your presentation and branding is definitely the best in the industry"

Paul Martyna, Dais

"Craig from Grafix Garage is dedicated and talented with a flair for the unusual."

Martin Cuthbertson, Cargo Care

"Combat entertainment company Battlefield LIVE replicates the compelling action of computer games, live. So we needed to create a suite of graphics that captured the exhilaration of the gaming experience. Grafix Garage did just that. The Grafix team worked with us to decode our brand's DNA.

By creating an arsenal of stock photos and inspiring graphics, Grafix were able to create a world-class web site (www.BattlefieldLive.com.au) and a series of print advertisements that really epitomise the thrill of live gaming."

Nicole Lander, Battlefield LIVE
