Radio communication is widely used across the business and helps staff to connect freely. With many radios becoming lost or unaccounted for, a new system was desperately needed in order to streamline stocktake. Philo was asked to step in and help our partner Calo deliver the solution.

Afternoon Design Studio
Afternoon Studio is a Tauranga-based design company that specialises in branding. Cam Attwood (the owner) approached Philo to create his website. This project was fairly light on software and focussed primarily on the user experience. Cam has some great projects to showcase so it was a matter of getting these across in a clear, functional way. It was also important that site visitors could navigate their way through key information and find exactly what they needed.
