. Calders Design Philosophy
Design is a combination of talent and discipline bounded by tradition and principles dating back centuries. Time has not changed the principles of design, only the methods and technology in which the final design is produced. Calders design personnel each with their own forte, enable clients to enjoy the expertise needed for their individual design. Being a design and print operation means our designers have an indepth knowledge of printing processes - an essential element in delivering functional design. . Computer Platforms & SoftwareLike 80% of designers internationally the majority of our workstations are Apple Macintosh. Recently we migrated our Macintosh operating system to OS X with the release of 10.3. We also run a parallel system on Microsoft Windows to accommodate applications from clients. Calders has a comprehensive range of software for Macintosh and Windows platforms. QuarkXpress™ 6.0 (Mac & Win), Pagemaker 7.0 (Mac & Win), InDesign 2.0 (Mac & Win), Freehand 11.0 (Mac & Win), Illustrator 10.0 (Mac & Win), Photoshop CS (Mac & Win), Coreldraw 11.0 (Win), Office 2003 (Mac & Win), plus many other minor programs too numerous to mention.
