Why

Everyone gets those "light bulb" moments, but due to a lack of know-how and various limitations these ideas never manifest into reality. Great Idea Creative Consultancy bridges the gap between your idea and your product.

We have pooled resources from all the design fields to make it easier for our clients to find anything design related under one roof. If the service you require is not listed on this site, please feel free to contact us anyway, we might be able to put you in contact with the right people.

How

We pay great attention to the finer details and our client's requests as well as being acutely aware of the technical aspect of design and the critical function of these creative disciplines. We believe that any Great Idea can be turned into a Great end product with the correct know-how and skill.

For the benefit of all parties involved, legal documents are signed to protect the client, the designer and the end product. Ideas, concepts and design are discussed, Great Idea Creative Consultancy does all that is required and more whilst keeping in contact with clients, to ensure the best, well thought out end product.

Prototyping and Model making

Rapid Prototyping transforms drawings and 3D renderings into tangible scale models and replicas using some of the latest 3D printing and Rapid Prototyping technology. For those unable to visualize a design from a drawing, a Prototyped model is invaluable in providing a better understanding of the concept.
What's more, by rapid prototyping your model, valuable development time and costs are saved thus fast-tracking one's design to the market. Whatever your idea, no matter how big, small, simple or complex, let us transform your concepts into 3D reality.
