Argos has created a separate catalogue for its range of computers. Designed by Infocus Marketing Communications, How to Buy the Right Computer is launched next Monday alongside the new biannual general Argos catalogue. Argos design manager Helen Hopwood says the brief to the Buckingham consultancy was to ‘present in a clear and easy manner the range of computers we offer and help get people through the buying process – cutting out the jargon’.

Infocus creative manager Linda Bates says: ‘We packaged the information into manageable and accessible chunks, but wanted to avoid the rigid grid structure so often associated with information-rich leaflets.’
