Our work

The Lighthouse Foundation

The Lighthouse Foundation provides homeless young people from backgrounds of long-term neglect and abuse, with a home, a sense of family, and around-the-clock therapeutic care that is individually tailored, trauma informed and proven to work. The Lighthouse Foundation needed a suit of templates created as part of a major rebrand.

Brief

It was important for Lighthouse that the templates were easy to use and robust. The templates are used across a number of computers of different ages and platforms, and the accuracy of the information is critical, so the last thing they needed was users getting frustrated with Word and PowerPoint!

Our approach

This was a three-way project, working with Lighthouse and FOR Studio, the design studio who created the re-brand. After an initial face-to-face meeting with FOR Studio and Lighthouse, we worked closely together until the job was completed. It's helpful for us to talk directly with the people using the templates and in this situation we were able to get the most out of the design, and ensure everything worked as well as possible.

Why we liked it

We loved working with the Lighthouse team, who are passionate about what they do. The fact that their new templates made their lives so much easier means we are contributing in a small way to this project, which we wholeheartedly endorse.

"Kylie and Tim have been an absolute pleasure to work with. We are so happy with the templates that have been created, and seamlessly integrated within our organisation. We no longer have to reinvent the wheel every time we want to start a policy or basic meeting agenda."
