The practice operates from a studio in Gourock on a variety of residential, commercial and industrial projects nationwide. Richard Robb Architects pride themselves on close client relations and quality architectural services.
Design Hero worked on the corporate identity for Richard Robb Architects, developed a new website, managed social media marketing and created a whole suite of branded stationery and graphic design for the business, expanding brand awareness in key target areas such as Greenock, Gourock, Inverkip and Port Glasgow in Inverclyde.
When Design Hero started working with Richard Robb Architects from their studio in Gourock there was no singular brand identity to speak of. The brand was defined by several existing visual elements in the office and company stationery such as a city skyline and an existing font. Design Hero worked with these elements to build a unified brand identity around these elements.
Clean lines, generous white space and repeating geometry as well as the careful use of greyscale were used as themes throughout the brand to lend a professional, modern impact to the architectural practice.
The logo was assembled from a skyline graphic used on the studio windows and the text was rearranged to sit more neatly in the logo as well as adding more contrast between text lines to bring out Richard Robb as the principal architect. The address was added as a tagline to the logo though the logo can be used independently with or without it.
Design hero designed company stationery and accessories to display the new brand image in as many mediums as possible. The stationery was designed to promote a premium, professional look to the company when interfacing with clients and goverment bodies via letters, email and face to face encounters.

Branded Christmas cards were sent to the client list and associated contractors and agencies from Richard Robb Architects shortly before christmas as a way of greeting. The minimalist approach to greyscale, colour and lines was again used to create a professional look unique to Richard Robb Architects
Design Hero aimed for the Website design to promote Richard Robb Architect's work and services while reinforcing the new brand identity throughout the site. The site uses open areas of whitespace to emphasize the parts that are important and carefully controlled typography to create a site structure that stands out from other architectural design practices in Greenock and Inverclyde.
We commissioned Design Hero to refresh our brand, design a new inhouse website to showcase our portfolio of architectural projects, and to design a variety of branded graphics such as stationery, business cards, sales brochures and more. Our enw unified brand presents a professional, modern face to our business and the new website is seeing increased traffic. We would recommend Design Hero to anyone looking for professional design services!
