Branding
Strategic brand identity design for businesses that want to be remembered — not just recognised.
Made in Nantwich — a design studio working across Cheshire and Staffordshire.
The city that branded the world. Yours should look the part.
Stoke-on-Trent is the only place in Britain where branding is literally stamped into the local industry. The Potteries gave the world Wedgwood, Spode, Moorcroft, Portmeirion, Emma Bridgewater and Steelite — names recognised globally, each built on a backstamp and a reputation for craft. Around that heritage sits a modern economy of advanced ceramics and materials, a serious digital base anchored by bet365, and a visitor economy drawn to Middleport Pottery and the World of Wedgwood.
That legacy sets a high bar. A ceramics or homeware maker is selling taste and provenance, and its brand has to embody both. An advanced-materials or manufacturing firm needs an identity that reads as precise and credible to national buyers. A Hanley or Trentham independent lives on how distinctive it looks the moment someone finds it. Heritage alone won’t carry a tired logo.
We build strategic, art-directed brands for all of them — identities with the confidence this city’s history deserves, handled in-house as part of our branding across Staffordshire, with the option to meet in person up the road.

We work across the full scope of brand identity — from initial strategy through to the assets your team uses every day.
Positioning, personality, tone of voice, and creative direction — defined before any design begins. The brief that drives everything that follows.
Logo, typography, colour system, iconography, and design language — distinctive, scalable, and built for the long term.
Clear, practical documentation for everything in your identity — so any designer, printer, or team member can use your brand correctly without calling us.
Stationery, presentations, brochures, social templates, email signatures, signage. The assets your brand needs to show up professionally across digital and physical spaces.
Not every brand needs to start from scratch. Sometimes a considered refinement — tighter typography, modernised palette, more flexible logo — is more valuable than a full rebrand. We assess what's worth keeping.
A structured process from brief to final handover. No guessing, no arbitrary decisions.
