Serosensa Creative Design Agency

Children's Book & Character Illustration

We've written and illustrated two award-winning children's books - When I Grow Up and The Big Build - between them winning four industry awards including two Platinum Muse Awards, and distributed free to schools across the UK. Every page is hand-drawn, vectored and painstakingly hand-painted, building characters children genuinely connect with.

Alongside publishing, we illustrate for board and card games, jigsaw puzzles, packaging and brand mastheads - work that adds a warmth and personality photography alone can't always achieve.

Brand Design

Far more than a beautiful logo - illustration is often where a brand identity really comes alive.

Marketing

Promo that promotes - illustrated artwork that stops people scrolling or walking past.

Vehicle Wraps

Even when it's parked, it's working - a hand-illustrated design makes a wrap impossible to ignore.

Product & Packaging Design

Done properly, it floods the mind with anticipation - illustration is often the difference between packaging people notice and packaging they don't.

Brochure Design

Beautifully designed and printed brochures that are simply too good to throw away - illustration adds a warmth that print alone can't.
