Michael’s passion for creativity began at an early age, leading to an apprenticeship in the Signage Industry. After completing his apprenticeship, he continued to build his skills and experiences across various aspects of signage, manufacturing, installations, print finishing and customer service.
He always had aspirations to start his own small business, and after years of witnessing diminishing quality and customer service, decided that this was his chance to make a difference. Joining forces with a colleague to create an after-hours signage business, the satisfaction and enjoyment gained from the entire process of initially meeting with clients, establishing their needs and the best way to deliver them, then delivering a quality final product to be proud of, was too good to only be a part-time career.
In order to follow his passion and goals of always improving, Michael returned to study for an Advanced Diploma in Graphic Design, and in July 2018 Michael Attridge Design was established, with the goal of providing quality graphic design, printed collateral and signage with great customer service and integrity.
Whilst forming his client base Michael subcontracted to a signage company, where he was in charge of design, quoting and printing. This was to be a very important role moving forward as it increased his valuable knowledge in colour management and creating digital files for manufacturing.
This combination of experiences along every step of the process helps him to ensure a seamless transition as possible from the conception stage, through to on-screen and manufacturing if needed, troubleshooting any potential issues before they arise. This is his point of difference from others in his field, being a unique blend of practical and creative.
Michael enjoys workinging with various industries and organisations across a large variety of collaborations and puts great care, pride and consideration into each project and its intended use.
He can assist owners and management to develop their brand on every level, from initial brand creation or rebranding to creating marketing material designs and stationery, information booklets, advertising campaigns or annual reports. Existing designs can then transition across vehicle or location signage, promotional equipment, product labels or social media advertising
With a trusted network of suppliers gained over years of connections and experiences, Michael also can manufacture your final designs into finished products, documents and signage, ensuring your experience is as enjoyable and hassle-free as possible, providing peace of mind and a quality final piece to be proud of.
Since working with Michael Attridge Design, Michael has always worked to get our jobs done to meet tight deadlines. Although this is the case, he works well ahead of time to get the drafts to us and allows as many changes as we need to make it perfect. His work has been high-end across all of our platforms to create a whole product that flows really nicely and has some amazing ideas that we would have never thought of without his valued input.
“Above and beyond” is a phrase that comes to mind when thinking about his service levels.
