From Our Clients
Our clients know what they need and also know us best.
Here is a small selection of comments about our work.
We were most impressed with the professional services of Looking Glass Press in the up-dating and re-publishing of our Climate Action Kits in the Hindu, Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist and Christian traditions. Sharon was clearly dedicated to flawless, attractive and user-friendly results. Sharon was meticulous in her attention to detail yet met deadlines in a timely manner. It is always a pleasure to talk with Sharon, as she is friendly and generous-spirited, and she offered us competitive rates as well. I would highly recommend any business or organisation engage her services. You won’t look elsewhere once you’ve discovered Sharon at Looking Glass Press!

Sharon’s talents are second to none. I have worked with her for close to four years and her work is of an exceptional quality. She never fails to deliver outstanding graphical products to meet a range of our different campaigning needs, from social media graphics, reports, logos, banners and more. Her skills are diverse and her reliability is unsurpassed. Sharon works at the speed of light and never fails to deliver. She is such a delight to work with.

Projects—various memes, handbooks and flyers
In my career as a legal professional, I have enjoyed a happy and productive relationship with Sharon France and Looking Glass Press for over 30 years. Sharon has provided me with timely advice and excellent design options, particularly when we have had a need to re-brand or create a new brand.
Our most recent engagement we started with a re-brand and ended up with a suite of materials (business cards, with compliment slips, email footers, web graphics and signage) that we are delighted with. Sharon’s work exceeded our expectations.

It’s always a pleasure to work with Sharon, who produces very high quality work incredibly fast. I’m always impressed by her professionalism as well as her creativity in design and layout as well as in choice of images. Sharon’s patience and generosity also make working with her a breeze, when getting major reports designed can too often be highly stressful. I’ve taken major projects to her several times in a row and will continue to do so.

ABOUT OUR FEATURED COLOUR
LGP has adopted Pantone’s 2022 Color of the Year—Very Peri across our communications collateral.
At last, a colour we can LOVE! Last year was a struggle, trying to find enthusiasm for the yellow and grey combo that Pantone selected ‘to encourage resilience and hope’. Very Peri, on the other hand is a fun colour that brings LGP back toward our original corporate livery (a nice navy).
According to the Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute, Leatrice Eisman: ‘Very Peri displays a spritely, joyous attitude and dynamic presence that encourages creativity and imaginative expressions.’
So bring on 2022 and the opportunity to tackle a whole swathe of projects! We have readopted a previous byline – ‘publication design with heart’ because it really is about loving this world and this work.
May everything this year be fuelled with a very peri attitude of joy, dynamism, creativity and imagination!
