Graphic Design & Branding
Your brand, perfectly designed.
Whether you need a new logo, a complete brand identity, or a realistic signage mockup, we create work that balances creativity with precision. You get a professional, cohesive look that connects with your audience and works seamlessly across every channel.
What we do
- Logo design and brand identity
- Vehicle livery and fleet artwork
- Signage artwork for flat panels, routed letters, lightboxes and multi-panel facades
- Full brand guidelines
- Print-ready file production
- Mockups and visualisations (photo-placement, 3D wall and vehicle mockups)
- Colour matching
- File handover and production liaison with printers/signmakers
How we do it
- Signage-first design: we know sign materials and manufacturing tolerances, so artwork fits the final product.
- End-to-end service: creative thinking plus technical file prep and handover — fewer revisions, faster delivery.
- Colour-accurate output: controlled proofs and colour matching to keep your brand consistent across print and vehicles.
- Scalable for projects big and small: from a single reception sign to multi-site rollouts and fleet identities.
- Practical, production-aware approach: we design with sightlines, reading distance and mounting constraints in mind.
- Digital optimization: We will also supply your logo in a format ideal for digital display if you need it, to ensure that your branding looks great on a screen as well.

Frequently asked questions
Where do I start?
Please get in touch with us in the earliest stage of your process as possible – this will allow us to ensure that the process goes as smoothly as possible. We can assist in all steps of the process, from logo design and brand development all the way through to signage installation.
Do you offer design and artwork services?
Yes. We can create new designs from scratch, adapt existing artwork, or prepare print-ready files.
What file formats do you require for artwork?
We prefer vector files (PDF, AI, or EPS) for logos and high-resolution (300dpi) files for images.
What if I already have a designer?
We are happy to collaborate. We can provide accurate templates and site photos for your designer, or we can take your existing branding and adapt it specifically for your application, whether that is 3D CNC cutting, vehicle contours, or large-format printing. We can also supply source files in a compatible format upon project completion.
Can you match our specific brand colors and fonts?
Yes. We use professional color-matching workflows (Pantone/CMYK) and can reproduce custom fonts and finishes.
What happens if my sign or graphics get damaged?
Because we keep all your digital artwork on file, we can quickly produce and apply repairs, ensuring your signage always looks its best. Drop us a line or send through a photo of the damage, and we’ll get it sorted.
Important: If the damage has created a potential hazard, please contact us immediately. We will mobilize as quickly as possible to secure the signage and restore safety.
How long will it take to complete my signage job?
Project durations at Timaru Signs depend on the complexity and size of your request. We aim for a speedy turnaround on every job, ensuring your brand gets noticed as quickly as possible without sacrificing quality. If you have a specific deadline you need to meet, we can usually make it work – please be sure to mention this to our helpful staff when you enquire.
