core creative values
values
bam! ok, so that’s got your attention, briefly. at core the process of dealing with your creative needs is second nature, its in our blood. but equally important to us is what we believe in as a team, our values. this portfolio of design serves two purposes. firstly to demonstrate to you just how eye-catching and well executed our work is and secondly to give you an insight into the values that we believe make a great studio. we know you’re busy, but when you do next stop for a coffee, sit down and enjoy what could be a new beginning for the both of us.

the
in my
head possessed seems like a strong word obsessed maybe. at core we tend to look at things differently, we see what others don’t. its what gives us the edge, and you the goods. we know what you’re after, something better. there’s a lot going on in our heads. we’re not staring into space over another cold cup of tea without good reason. the creative cogs have already begun turning. the process of change is under way.

passion
ants in your
got
pants?
african jumping beans, they were a christmas present one year, bounced around all over the place, they could never sit still either. design is always on the move, always changing. we’re passionate about it, as a result we’re always on the move, always looking to be one step ahead, looking at what’s around the corner. so forgive us if we seem a little fidgety, its not E numbers, its excitement, its passion, its our next great idea.

honesty
pretty
welcome to the land of the living. where you can be guaranteed one thing, a good natter. and first up on stage, its you. tell us all, your needs, your expectations, your best jokes, the lot. in return you won’t get a vacant expression nodding politely, oh no, you’ll get ideas, lots of them. ideas, opinions, thoughts, feelings. we’ll tell you exactly what we think, its not always pretty, but at least its honest.

energy
that
it’s all about
tingly
feeling
praise be for carbohydrates! if the measure of a good studio is how many bagels you consume in one morning, then hey, we’re rocking. in reality its a kind of prerequisite for working in a design studio, that obsessive urge to rise to the next creative challenge and emerge victorious. in our studio every creative mission that comes through the door is a butterfly in our tummy, a quickening of our pulse.

fun!
look
on
your face that
ten minutes is usually long enough. by then you know you’ve made the right decision, you’ve met the team, you’ve seen the ideas (and loved them), you’ve helped yourself to the biscuit tin (bourbons are all gone, again) and requested your favourite track from the playlist. from then on it becomes fun, because having a well oiled creative machine on your side is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. as for the music, well, you can only hope.

experience
you
did
what?
you’ll find no botox here. not a face lift in sight, no tummy tucks or chemical peels. but don’t let our youthful looks faze you, behind these baby faces lies a fountain of knowledge. a concentrated source of design do’s and dont’s. we did our time experimenting, got our hands dirty and our fingers burnt. we’ve learnt how to push the boundaries without pushing our luck.

trust
your
remember those oversized cards on valentines day? parading hand in hand across the school playground, insisting that isn’t a love bite on your neck. new relationships have to start somewhere. and we soon learn, some are short others for life. we want to be that person you turn to in your hour of need, that one person you can rely on to do the right thing.
