Brand update

Healthy Pixels has worked with Hardwired IT across a range of projects—including banners, a proposal document, and a logo revamp to give their visual identity a more contemporary look.

We kept the recognisable cloud from their original logo but gave it more depth and fill for better visibility. We also simplified the logo by removing confusing or redundant icons. While the typeface stayed the same, we switched from uppercase to lowercase for a softer expression.

As part of the update, we also prepared alternate colour variations and formats to ensure the logo could be used flexibly across different placements and backgrounds.

Website update

By late 2024, Hardwired IT was ready for a website upgrade. Their existing site had been built in-house and didn’t run on an intuitive platform, making it hard to manage and scale.

They also wanted a more distinctive design—something original that would support brand recognition and better reflect who they are as a business.

Solution

Healthy Pixels was brought in to deliver a full website refresh, including sitemapping, content, design and development. The client had one main request: to use red as a primary colour. Beyond that, we had creative freedom.

We introduced an accent colour for buttons and interactive elements, helping users navigate more easily. To personalise the main call-to-action—getting in touch—we even brought the cloud from the logo into the button design.

To avoid relying on stock imagery, we created custom illustrations to represent their core services and other areas of the site, giving the design more character and clarity.

The result

The new Hardwired IT website is fully on-brand, original, and more in line with what you’d expect from a modern tech company. It’s clean, recognisable, and—importantly—easy to update and maintain. The new setup also supports any future SEO plans to drive more traffic to the site.
