Capesthorne Hall was built between 1719 and 1732, on 100 acres of picturesque Cheshire countryside. Three centuries later, the historic halls’ distinctive Jacobean-style architecture remains as stunning as it was when it was first built. The hall grounds are complemented by its formal gardens, beautiful wildlife, chain of lakes and Milanese gates. Now, it has become a sought-after venue for weddings, events and even filming for period dramas and popular TV shows like Coronation Street.
The team at Capesthorne Hall contacted us to discuss a new logo, brand guidelines, brochures and a new website. Right from the first discovery call we knew we had a real opportunity to deliver a stunning new identity for Capesthorne Hall.

We wanted to showcase the Hall in all its grandeur, whilst creating a minimal, light aesthetic. Using a variety of Adobe software and influences from fine art, the logo was drawn freehand in the delicate style our client preferred.
We then customized a standard font with added glyphs to create a more curvaceous font unique to Capesthorne Hall. Together, the font and hall visual have given our client a contemporary new logo that reiterates their high-end services.

For ledgibility, text is kept the same size throughout the brochure, with the same font combination as the website concept. Making sure important information like dates and prices was easy to find and read was a crucial element.

“From the start of our journey, Gloversure have been fantastic. The moment we came across their work, we knew that they were the right company for us.
Wanting a complete brand refresh, including a new logo, new website, and two brochures, our brief was not easy. However, Gloversure were brilliant with the whole process. Every detail was worked on thoroughly, and if there were ever extra details and changes that we wanted, they were always quick to adapt as well as giving us professional advice for decisions that could have adverse impact.
The design team did an amazing job with our new branding producing exactly what we had imagined and beyond. And now having just launched our new website, the feedback has been fantastic, and we are so excited to show off our new look.
We would recommend Gloversure to anyone wanting a brand refresh or a new website!”
