The BellaFesta name and brand were developed by Octoberstone in collaboration with Sestina's Musical Director, Mark Chambers. It's fabulous to know that the weekend proved so successful. We're delighted to have played a small part.

Designing a web banner ad is a bit like crafting a great tweet in 140 characters. Every one of the pixels in this 970 x 250 pixel banner for Sestina must be made to count when trying to attract the attention of culture skimming web users..

When we established Octoberstone 24 years ago in October 1990, we never imagined that some of our work would endure for so long. One our very first commissions was from dentist Peter Smith for a logo for The Family Practice. The typography could do with a bit of an update, but the illustration still has the simple charm that it did 24 years ago. It's also pleasing to know that we have played a small part in the enduring success of many businesses and organisations along the way

Last week our friend Geraldine Graham of Lenamore Stables in Co. Donegal spoke to Victoria Derbyshire on BBC Radio 5 Live about her very special horse Lenamore Lucy Lou https://www.dropbox.com/…/zy4zpn…/AAC 4Xqeb_6jSuZM471ImbQ2Ra…
