We build brands.

Then bring them to life.

A brand, design and content studio in Huddersfield,
for established businesses.

We’ve been building brands for more than a decade, and we stay for what comes after: the catalogue, the stand, the signage, the website. The same people design all of it, so five years on it still looks like one brand.

Twenty years in the industry, and a studio small enough that you deal directly with the people doing the design. We build brands that people who aren’t designers can use, and that still hold together years after launch.

How we work

Most projects run in this order: the brand, then the website, then everything printed, built or fixed to a wall. Some clients arrive with a brand someone else made and start at the website.

↓

Branding

Brand positioning first, so we agree what the business is for before anything gets drawn. Then the identity, or a rebrand of the one you have, and brand guidelines written for the people who’ll use them, most of whom aren’t designers.

↓

Website

Web design from the same system as everything you print. Every page is designed and signed off before it’s built, so nothing gets handed to a stranger halfway through.

↓

Graphic design

Catalogues, exhibition stands, signage, packaging, point of sale and annual reports. It’s where most people meet your brand. We did Belvedere’s positioning and identity, then their website, SEO and promotional material.

See your brand the way everyone else does.

A free audit of your brand out in the world: the website, the print, the signage, the templates your own team fills in. We do the work, then walk you through it.

Start before you have a brief.

You don’t need a brief. A name, an email and a few lines about where things stand is enough. We’ll come back with questions, and tell you plainly how we can help.
