Better Together Design & Print is the amalgamation of two creative minds, spanning over 30 years of collective experience in the creative- and graphic design field.
Whatever the occasion, we can meet a very wide range of your design and printing needs. We would be honoured to assist you in presenting your event or business in a professional and memorable way.
Our lives become Better Together at some point as a result of a specific person, a special celebration, an event, or even a new venture.
What does the word "togetherness" mean to you? Who adds meaning to your life, enriches it and makes you feel better? A new friend, family member, or a new baby, perhaps? We all have someone or something that makes our lives better!
We do celebrations best - whether it's weddings, new babies, special birthdays, a new business, or honouring a teacher for enriching and improving your child's life. We love celebrating the memorable moment when you realised your life had just gotten better, together with you!
Originally starting off as a small business producing hand-made event stationery for friends and family, word of mouth quickly gave rise to ‘Cards and All’.
After moving into a bigger and centrally located studio in Benoni, advertising in popular wedding magazines and attending wedding expos was the next logical step. With the addition of a laser cutting machine, the emphasis shifted from solely wedding and function invitations and stationery to the inclusion of a wide range of gifting solutions as well.
The search for a new challenge lead to experimenting with various printing techniques. In 2020 I was presented with a fantastic opportunity to purchase Lily James Designs, a medium-sized business primarily focused on fabric printing and gifting, with personalised blankets being the most popular.
Over the past two years, Lily James’ repertoire expanded and new in-house printing methods and techniques were introduced.
The need for a name change to something meaningful and relatable brought us where we are today. One evening, the title ‘Better Together’ came to me and, no matter how hard I tried to think of something else, ‘Better Together’ persisted.
It is a new – yet established – business, with dedicated and passionate people with decades of knowledge, experience, and skills behind it. We'll keep doing most of what we've been doing and it's the same person steering the ship, but we're adding more services available to you, such as graphic design and corporate gifting.
