Our Process

Design

Design is the core of our business. Great design is how you express yourself to your clients, how visitors perceive you and how you create an experience. We know that amazing design is how we can ensure you meet your goals, by wowing guests and bringing in more business. Why choose Sly Fox Design? Design is how we think. Our team has over 15 years of experience creating everything in this industry from business logos to intricate film props. It’s what makes us stand out from other sign companies...we lead with design.

What can we do? Anything you can think of! We’re the concept gurus of the signage industry, there’s no idea too complex for us. Whether that’s creating something cool out of your current graphics, or coming up with something new. We can take your concept, logo or idea and help you create something to shout about.

We are tried and tested problem solvers, we are resilient, clever little foxes.

Manufacturing

You can have all the best designers in the world, but your product won’t be high-quality unless you also have skilled sign manufacturers on the case. Which is why we make everything we can in house, so we know for certain that all of our products are not only attractive but built to last. Us foxes love getting our teeth into a project which is why we prefer manufacturing signs ourselves. Our skilled workshop team has the added bonus of clear communication with designers, we never plan something that won’t work in reality. Cross communication is essential in any creative industry, which is why our designers never start a project without continuously considering the manufacturing at every stage.

Everything we make at Sly Fox Design is custom designed and manufactured to your exact needs. We always ensure excellent quality and detail by quality checking every stage of your product’s creation.
