Temple Bar TradFest Cavan Musicians were invited to take part in a traditional music session in the Oliver St John Gogarty pub, Temple Bar, Dublin on February 3. The session featured the legendary voice of Seán Ó Sé An Poc ar Buile fame, Cavan’s lilter Seamus Fay, Fear an Tí Radio Eireann's Kieran Hanrahan,Dick Hogan Singer, accordionist Martin Donohoe, fiddler Gene Anderson and rhythm King Trevor Bury as well as a host of local Dublin musicians. The session marked the end of the 2009 Temple Bar TradFest for which designworks created the new brand identity. The festival organisers have declared it their best year to date and attribute much of the increase in awareness and numbers attending the festival to the impact of the new design and its effectiveness in print, signage and online. Designworks which celebrates 25 years in business this year was established by Killeshandra native Martin Gaffney. A design graduate and brand expert Martin manages a team of 12 designers and consultants at their Dublin based design studio. Martin's company have developed design for many of the country's best known brands and organisations including Shannon Airport, NSAI-The National Standards Authority, Discover Ireland and Connacht Gold. The TradFest organisers chose to work Martin's studio because of their excellent creative skills and also due to Martins interest and knowledge of traditional music. Also a well known flute player, Martin speaking at the TradFest session said "At any time, but particularly in hard times, business survival is about growth, creative design and brand development has the power to positively transform businesses and organisations. Design can make a real difference to the bottom line; building awareness, promoting products and services, but most importantly increasing sales" Good design and branding also wins awards, last week a brochure designed by designworks for Fáilte Ireland to promote Connemara won a HSMAI award. The awards are viewed as the country’s flagship tourism awards. Visit www.designworks.ie for the full story
