Brochure design in Calgary
01 / In short
A good brochure gets picked up, carried home and opened again a few days later, which is more than most marketing ever manages. That happens when it's easy to read and it feels like it came from a business that takes care over its work.
We've designed brochures in Calgary since 2007, for sales centres, member programs and retail. Plenty of them sit on a sales centre table next to a map, where a visitor gives them a minute at most, so we design them to be understood quickly and kept.
Shida Studio designs brochures in Calgary, including bifolds, trifolds, booklets and catalogues, for sales centres, events and mail outs. Each one is designed for the way it will be handed out and prepared to your printer specifications, with the right size and colours, so it goes to press without surprises.

03 / What we do
Laid out for the person holding it
We start with what the brochure is for and who will be holding it, then plan the pages so the most important thing is on the cover and the detail follows in a sensible order. If the copy runs long for the space, we'll show you where it can be trimmed rather than squeezing the type until nobody can read it.
04 / What we do
Ready for the printer
A brochure that looks right on a screen can still go wrong at press. We set up every file to your printer specifications, with the correct size, bleed, folds and colour, and we're happy to talk to your printer directly so nothing has to be passed along second hand.
05 / What we do
Matching the rest of your marketing
A brochure rarely goes out on its own. We can carry the same look onto the sales sheet, the sign, the email and the website, so somebody who picked up the brochure recognises everything else they see from you.

Questions
What people ask us
How much does brochure design cost?
It depends mostly on the number of pages and how much of the content is ready. A trifold built on your existing brand is a smaller job than a twenty page catalogue, so tell us what you've in mind and we'll give you a number for it.
How long does a brochure take?
A simple bifold or trifold is often a few days once the copy and photos are ready. Longer booklets and catalogues take more time, mostly depending on how quickly feedback comes back. We will give you a date at the start.
Do you print the brochures?
We design them and prepare print ready files for your printer. If you don't have a printer, we can suggest Calgary shops that our other clients use.
Can you update a brochure we already have?
If the original files are available it's usually a quick job. If they're gone, we can rebuild it from a PDF or a printed copy, and from then on it's set up properly for the next update.
Do you need photos from us?
Good photos of your work, your homes or your team make the best brochures. If you don't have them yet, we'll tell you where photography would help most and design around what you've in the meantime.
