/GRAPHIC
We love design. Seriously, we’re nuts for this stuff. Like ninjas, it’s what we’re trained for. So ditch Microsoft Publisher, fire your friend who is ‘having a play with your brochure’ and get the experts in. We do it all – you name it, we’ll take care of it!
/WEB
We have the tools to design and build a website for you that clearly positions you against your competition and engages and converts your audience. From beautiful brochure sites through to online shops, your website will be unique, appealing, powerful, super-easy for you to manage and epic on mobile.
/E-MARKETING
eMarketing is simple, immediate, cost-effective and measurable — it drives traffic to your website and boosts your sales. We create eMail that your customers will read and enjoy. If you are sick of photocopying, folding and posting your news, making the switch is a no brainer.

/SOME OF OUR CLIENTS INCLUDE
That's Week One done for the Huskies! It can take a while to get back in the swing of things after a break but it is good to be back into it. Coffee is our friend at the start and so is a celebratory wine at the end. How was your first week back?
We're back baby! We all had a great time off, travelling Aotearoa and dusting off all our summer hobbies. Now we're back, and ready to work with you on everything creative - from website design and development, to rebranding and print design.
If you're thinking of starting something new in 2022, get in touch!
One of our big goals this year is to get out and support small Kiwi businesses, and our summer break gave us the best opportunity to get a kick start.
From coffee and brunch and local cafés to heartfelt gifts, here are a few of our favourite Kiwi businesses that you could join us in supporting this year: Morningcider, Crave, KIND, Common Good Coffee NZ, Kintsugi.akl, Trees That Count #golocal #goodinthehood #morningsideforlife
Linus Pauling once said, "The best way to have a good idea is to have a lot of ideas." We're all about teamwork at Husk, and so when it comes to putting together your brand's vision, we will work together with you to get the best out of both worlds, yours and ours. Many hands make light work and many brains make a good idea great! Let's have coffee and thrash ideas for your brand positioning around - trust us, it is a treat of a way to start a day! 😁
Getting back into the swing of things in the new year can be difficult - we totally agree! Especially when you are longing for salt on your skin, sand between your toes and endless days relaxing far, far away from our desks. To help the transition back into routine, we gather the team on our first day back at work (before anyone gets a chance to open the emails) and hit our local cafe @cravecafe for a long leisurely coffee and catchup. What do you do to regroup?
