Working for The Scottish Government on the prescription charges campaign, we have designed a very simple web page, online advertising and a giant animated advert for the Transvision screen at Waverley Station, so get down there with your popcorn and watch it on widescreen.
And just in case you have not heard. From April 1, the cost of prescriptions in Scotland fell from £6.85 to £5.00. Further annual reductions are planned to remove prescription charges altogether by 2011.
Whitespace have completed all marketing materials for a new 500,000 sq ft development at Newbridge in Edinburgh, on behalf of Paradigm.
The site named AXIS will become one of Scotland's premier business locations served by two new hotels and proposed retail facilities. Whitespace have been involved in all aspects of the project from initial name generation, branding, on-site signage, brochure and website.

Whitespace Helps the Canadian Environment
Whitespace have seen the launch in April of the website for Vancouver-based environmental consulting company Teranis, after creating their new brand identity and communication plan.
The site combines the technical complexity of the industry with the aesthetics of the environment and uses on-site video footage and flash animation to bring to life the serious issues of environmental welfare and the procedures undertaken to clean up the damage.

Congratulations to everyone involved.
For those of you that have never visited Whitespace HQ, this is your chance to have a sneak peek around the office and place your vote! This Ain’t No Disco (it’s where we work) invites Agencies from across the world to show off their inner sanctums and like Pandora’s Box, once you look inside, nothing will ever be the same again (or so they say).
Whitespacers vs White's Pacers: Day 1.
Your favourite designers (us, we mean) are off to court today. Where we’ll be fighting White’s Pacers, the shoe company, over the ownership of our web address: whitespacers.com
The footwear manufacturer’s legal representative, Hugh Phibbs QC, will claim that various irregularities in the registration of our domain name mean that his client is entitled to share our website. And that we should therefore set aside 50% of each and every one of our webpages to advertise White’s Pacers brogues, boots and trainers. He will even suggest that we have a duty to design the banner ads ourselves.
Well, we say it’s totally ridiculous. Who could possibly believe this nonsense?
