Design that helps arts and culture organisations share their stories
Why arts & culture organisations work with us
Promoting arts and culture isn’t straightforward. Whether it’s launching a new exhibition, attracting visitors to a heritage site, or keeping audiences engaged across a busy season of events, teams are often working with limited budgets, short timelines, and high expectations from funders, boards, and communities.
We step in as an extension of your team: responsive, collaborative, and focused on making your campaigns shine. From gallery guides and exhibition branding to donor reports and visitor campaigns, we deliver creative that connects with audiences and supports your organisation’s goals, so why us?
- Our seven in-house designers produce bold, original creative at pace.
- Online proofing tools keep feedback simple and fast.
- With design, print and mail under one roof, we save you time and help your budget stretch further.
From first idea to final delivery, we handle everything – no chasing, no stress, just the difference a good team makes.
We’re the design partner arts and culture teams rely on: creative, dependable, and committed to helping you reach more people.

Circomedia
Bristol’s centre for contemporary circus and physical theatre needed a refreshed identity to reflect its bold, inclusive ethos. We created a modernised logo, vibrant colour palette, and clear typography, brought to life in a standout prospectus that connects powerfully with students and audiences.

Portsmouth
Historic Dockyard
We created the unEXPECTed EXPERIENCES campaign, with a bold strapline and dynamic creative centred on a digital cube showcasing the Dockyard’s attractions. The refreshed identity boosted visitor numbers, deepened engagement, and positioned the Dockyard as a place of discovery and surprise.

Army Flying Museum
We rebranded the museum as it entered a new era with Project Eagle, creating a bold, contemporary identity and human-focused proposition: Stories of courage, comradeship and innovation live here. The refreshed brand boosted awareness, improved visitor experience, and delivered a 22% increase in visitor numbers.

How we work with
arts & cultures organisations
We don’t just design for theatres, we work with them, building lasting relationships that help theatres thrive season after season.
Branding & Identity
We develop and refine brands that capture the spirit of arts and culture. From logo to tone of voice, we ensure your organisation feels cohesive and consistent across every touchpoint.
Video & Animation
From animated trailers and social snippets to digital screen content, we help your exhibitions and events come alive online and on-site. Engaging, shareable, and designed to capture attention across every channel.
Printed Materials
Exhibition guides, event programmes, brochures, and promotional materials that captivate audiences and showcase your organisation. On-brand, high-quality, and managed from concept to delivery.
Banners & Signage
From exhibition panels and wayfinding to posters and outdoor banners, we create eye-catching displays that draw audiences in and guide them through your space. Durable, practical, and designed to make an impact.
Direct Mail
Targeted campaigns that put your exhibitions, events, and programmes straight into the hands of your audience. With design, print, and postage all handled in-house, you benefit from quick turnarounds, cost savings, and consistent quality.
Digital Design
Eye-catching digital assets help you connect with audiences and keep campaigns performing online. We create everything from HTML emails and social media graphics to digital adverts and event visuals.
FAQs
Do you offer ongoing support after a project is completed?
Yes, we believe design support shouldn’t stop at delivery. We build lasting relationships with arts and culture organisations, offering everything from ongoing maintenance to rolling out new campaigns. As your needs evolve, we’re always on hand to provide updates, fresh creative, or extra support whenever you need it.
What is your process for gathering input from stakeholders?
We believe the best design work comes from great collaboration. That’s why we make it simple for everyone to feed in using an easy online proofing tool to cut out the chaos of endless spreadsheets and scattered comments.
Alongside that, we stay closely connected through regular check-ins, workshops and feedback sessions. It means everyone gets a voice, and we stay aligned with your organisation’s goals from start to finish.
Can we use you for print and mailing if we have a designer in-house?
Absolutely. If you’ve already got artwork sorted, we can step in to manage print production and mailing with our parent and sister companies, Bishops Printers and The Mailing People. Seamlessly managed through one account manager, saving you time and money.
