Archive
A directory of designers and studios worth knowing, spanning a range of disciplines, scales, and approaches across the creative industries. The archive is a reference point for understanding the breadth of the field, who is working, how they work, and what the industry looks like in practice. For those starting out, it is a resource for research, reference, and building a picture of the landscape you are entering. Beyond that, it is simply a space to look, seeing what others are making and finding inspiration in the work being produced across the field.

Studio Blackburn
Studio Blackburn are serious about brand and business. We bring play to work and work to play. Two unified ingredients we use to design for brands outside the margins. We use reason and function as much as creative experimentation, giving space and time for the best ideas to be born.

Two Times Elliott
We’re an internationally recognised, proudly independent studio that’s spent over fifteen years identifying what reshapes categories. Our focus is consumer brands in wellness, beauty, self-care and lifestyle - categories shaped by how people want to feel, not just what they need to buy. Our work translates cultural and behavioural shifts into brand strategy that drives genuine transformation - the kind that creates internal clarity and external momentum, not just aesthetic improvement.

Afloat
We believe in the power of visual design. That is why we aspire to create engaging concepts for a discerning clientele. Alongside an ongoing dialogue with our commissioners we start to rigorously observe, research, experiment and subsequently develop an emotional response to the brief. At all times, we strive to cut through noise and create value through design. Our approach has been kindly described as ‘quietly confident and bright with a touch of playfulness’. The studio is led by Lukas Muellner, who previously enjoyed a ten year’s run at renowned design consultancies in London, Copenhagen and Vienna. He has been teaching at the programme Fashion & Technology, University of Art and Design Linz since 2017.

Studio Airport
Our work spans across art, culture, ecology and science. We believe no idea exists in a vacuum, so with each project, we extract, curate and contribute to a wider creative ecosystem, telling stories that evolve and deepen over time.
