What is the profile of your ideal client?
Typically in CUBE Design we work with
- Growing and changing businesses - those who have changed their focus or direction, or are expanding to new locations,
and their current brand no longer makes sense
Funded start ups - those who are serious and understand the power of a strong brand from the outset, preferably those with funding behind them
- Businesses who are struggling with consistency in their existing brand - They may have all the pieces of the jigsaw, the logo, the website, but there would not be any consistency in the visuals or the messaging, and they may be struggling to see exactly wher they need to develop their brand. We help them to gain that clarity in their communications. For these businesses we offer a Brand Audit service.

What business services could you require from IIBN members occasionally/regularly?
I am a believer in collaboration, and regularly work with copywriters, web developers, photographers, other designers, and printers. We bring the teams together to fit the project, and manage these projects for you from start to finish. We are also a part of a group with other IDI Brand designers. There are six of us and we regularly share ideas and back each other up when it is needed.
Tell us something interesting or unusual about yourself.
After leaving Ireland in the late 80's I spent almost ten years working in London, as the only designer responsible for the creative output of all communications in a large umbrella body for UK charities. I returned home to Ireland with my first child, project managed and built our own house, and started CUBE Design in January 2009.
