Visual Interactive : Branding, graphic design, website design & development

Overview.

The Parish of St Matthew's, Northampton is an Anglican Parish Church, in the catholic tradition, whose primary purpose is to bring others to faith in Jesus Christ and to promote the Christian Gospel. They seek to inspire lives of committed service and, in all respects, live the implications of their faith within their contemporary setting.

They strive to be a welcoming community where worshippers enjoy a sense of belonging to a ‘parish family’. Such a community is characterized by mutual respect and affirmation.

The ecclesiastical parish of St Matthew's church is a relatively small, densely populated area of approximately one mile square, situated one-and-a-half miles from Northampton town centre.

How we support them.

In 2011, after observing the success of the work Visual Interactive had carried out for All Saints' church, Northampton, St Matthew's Church engaged us to completely re-develop their own existing website.

After initial discussions, it was clear that St Matthew's required an extensive and informative website that showcased their comprehensive and inestimable works of art and music commissioned throughout their history. Although a relatively young church, St Matthew's also has an intriguing chronicle of why it was built, and how it came to be an important icon with regards to its musical background. St Matthew's also expressed their preference to elements of the All Saints' church website, which they wanted to emulate within the new design.

Since the success of their re-developed website, we have been asked to produce a range of creative designs such as posters and flyers. We have also had the pleasure of building a new brand for the St Matthew's Music Foundation.

We have enjoyed many years working on creative projects for St Matthew's Church and look forward to working on future creative projects with continued success.
