Graphic design

When images, text, colours and shapes have to ‘speak’ to consumers

A message’s visual presentation in print strongly impacts whether or not it gets across. The artistic creativity of our graphic designers ensures it will, and their logistic creativity keeps the design process efficient and cost-effective. We can coordinate the design process from the concept stage to the finished product, be it a brochure, product packaging range or outdoor advertising.

Image manipulation

STEP INTO OUR PHOTOGRAPHIC DREAM LAB

From simple retouching to complex image manipulation, we always make sure your product looks as good as it possibly can. Our retouching artists creatively eliminate any imperfections and subtly highlight the product’s most attractive features. When more substantial changes are needed – such as setting the product in a new background – our image manipulators take the photo as the basis of a completely new image.

Desk-top publishing

WHERE THE ELEMENTS OF YOUR MESSAGE MEET

Our desk-top publishers design and develop any type of printed material – from ads, brochures and catalogues to POS displays and trade-show exhibits. In doing so, their aim is to create materials that maximise visual impact and build your brand. 

Pre-press services

FROM DIGITAL PRODUCT TO PAPER IN YOUR HANDS

Lukkien also carries out all the checks and adjustments needed before the finished layout goes to the printer, and can coordinate the printing process. Prior to printing, proofs are checked to make sure that everything is in order. Colour management is vital at this stage: this involves checking that the colour of the product in print will correspond exactly to the colour of the product in real life. This is done together with the client and, to save time, can even be done online using calibrated monitors. 

Automated print production

PUTTING IMMEDIATE RESPONSE CAPABILITIES INTO YOUR HANDS

For clients who issue regular publications, speed, flexibility and control are vital. They want to be able to create or adapt advertisements, brochures, folders or POS materials themselves, at short notice. We can tailor specially automated processes and tools that will enable you to do that whenever and (thanks to our online platform) wherever you are. Using specially designed templates, linked to a made-to-measure Digital Asset Management system, you can largely compile your own publications in-house and send them as certified PDFs directly to the printer or publisher.
