What we believe:

Here’s our brand story: We develop ideas without the hype, jargon and witch-doctoring that makes a creative pitch look and sound like a foreign language movie without the sub-titles. Design needn’t be complex. We’re passionate about common sense and the consistent delivery of a single idea wherever possible. Never myopic or precious about the solution - we find the style to suit the client, the product and the audience. It’s that simple. And it’s a set of beliefs which has earned us a small and loyal following, and more than our fair share of local and international awards.

Where we live:

Home to us is a lightly refurbished space in Auckland’s historic Britomart buildings. We’re a small team. Actually - just 4. But when resources are
needed, we plug in to a virtual network of illustrators, writers, artworkers and other creative types. We prefer our diminutive number because it enables us to be a little bit selective about the projects we commit to. More importantly, we’re able to put our names to all the work we produce. Clients also have unlimited access to the designers working on their projects without the inevitable filtering screen of account managers.

What we do:

We like to think of ourselves as all round creative problem solvers. Well, we like to anyway. In other words, we would rather not be thought of purely as designers, because we frequently have ideas (way) beyond our station. We’ve worked in interiors, architecture, presentations, advertising and predictably - brand strategy, web, writing, naming and graphics. We’ve written and developed genesis stories for development projects, developed websites for global brands, and, where we can’t do the work ourselves, clients rely on us to partner with them as brand champions to ensure other professionals correctly interpret the language of their
intellectual property.
