Design for Youth

From primary schools to secondary & third level colleges, from youth groups & youth cafés to state and semi-state youth organisations, we have huge experience designing with and for young people. We have developed many recognised identities for well known youth organisations including DCYA, Dáil na nÓg, Comhairle na nÓg, Ombudsman for Children, Youth Cafés in Ireland.

Some of our better known projects in this area include work for clients such as DCYA, NCCA, ECO-UNESCO & NYCI.

The Body Image Survey, launched late in 2012, detailed the findings from a survey in Ireland with a broad range of young people and their opinions and attitudes to their Body Image. We produced a distinctive illustration to brand the survey and designed an A4 report and a synopsis book, A6 size. It was launched by the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs, Frances Fitzgerald TD. Read more about it here

Two of our montage illustrations for the Body Image design proved popular among the young people, so much so that we were commissioned to produce a range of similar style illustrations for another DCYA campaign called ‘Life as a Child in Ireland’. This was the largest survey ever carried out in Ireland of its nature and proved very interesting reading, so it was great to work on.

The Rio+20 project was one we designed for ECO-UNESCO. Some of our work in the Education sector can be viewed here and some NCCA work for youth can be viewed here

Client Comments:

“I just wanted to let you know that we are getting really fantastic feedback about the ‘Life as a Child’. Everyone says its gorgeous. So thanks a million and another great success for the galz from Penhouse.”
