Website design for Helium Financial Planning
Our design solution focused on converting large portions of information into small, digestible sections with plenty of breathing room and paced with imagery, to make the content easy to skim over.
Designing memorable business cards
We pulled some business cards out from our archives to show a client a couple of examples... Turns out we have quite the collection!
Te Kupenga o Rongomai wayfinding and signage
After designing this community hub's branding, Tailwind was tasked with creating an effective wayfinding system and implementing a strong visual identity throughout the Te Kupenga o Rongomai building.

We created a new e-commerce website for the pharmacy with modern functions like Click & Collect, Google Pay, Apple Pay and more.
Website design for Ohariu Valley Construction

A highly-regarded new brand identity for Whisker Coastal Property
We chose to highlight the business's beautiful location, Australia's Sunshine Coast, with a palette of sandy golden hues and crystalline water. The logo incorporates a geometric 'W' and 'C', the latter shaped like a wave form with gradients to evoke the shimmering quality of the sea and sand.
An easy breezy change for Hamilton Dental and Prosthetic Lab
Hamilton Dental & Prosthetic Lab approached Tailwind Design to rebuild their website after struggling with a costly and unresponsive previous provider. Now they have a professional and smooth new website, with content that they have access to update themselves.

The My Upper Hutt website offers an engaging experience at every turn with tons of bold typography, motion and familiar language.
Securing a memorable brand identity for SecurityLogics
We responded to our client's brief by steering away from sharp angles and aggressive colours, opting instead for an approachable lower case logotype and memorable gradient green/blue palette..
A premium website for Watson and Wyatt Event Design
Our Queenstown-based client needed a website refresh that reflected their growth and expanded range of services. We’re grateful to this client for their loyalty throughout the years, and we believe that continuous collaboration with us has lead to a harmonious user experience across all of their customer touchpoints.
Simply Safety’s vibrant new brand identity
We kept pink at the forefront of Simply Safety's new brand and came up with the following concept: Simply Safety is like the laces to your boots, providing structure and safety to your business.
A new brand identity for Lower North Electrical
We thoroughly enjoyed this project to give local start-up Lower North Electrical a dynamic and unique identity. The result is a friendly and fresh look that establishes this new business as a force in the industry from day one.
Website redesign for Queen Street Pharmacy
Tailwind took on Queen Street Pharmacy's previous brand identity and extended it to flow throughout a bright, family-friendly new website.

A vibrant new face for Upper Hutt’s parks and reserves
An immersive new website for Silverstream Retreat
Silverstream Retreat was in desperate need of updates to their website. The design of the previous website had a rigid and dated classical design that didn't accurately represent the high quality of the venue and its unique atmosphere.
With much of the details out of date, and being too busy to meet the content update requirements of their previous web company, they came to Tailwind for help.
H2O Xtream Days of Summer
Let us bring in the New Year with a peek at a project we had a blast working on for H2O Xtream Aquatic Centre!
H2O was building an event to celebrate the 26-year history of the pool over the final 26 days before closing for refurbishment. They approached the Tailwind team to develop the concept and produce collateral to promote the event.
