about us
TWO:DESIGN is a privately owned, independent creative design consultancy founded in 1997 and is based in London, England. We serve national and international clients in the public and private sector, and offer a multi-disciplinary 'full service' agency approach specialising in creative direction, brand creation, brand management and as brand identity consultants.

Preferring to take a 360 degree or 'total design' approach, we have experience in handling marketing activity in print and online from concept to delivery across many media. The studio offers specialist experience, understanding and expertise in brand management and policing licensees across multiple territories to create a cohesive global brand or product experience for the consumer.

As founding members of the Elanders Creative network of consultancies, we are able to bring the power of a growing $300 million global company (Elanders AB) specialising in Infomedia production and delivery to all projects for the benefit of all our clients, coupled with the personal relationship of a small design company that cares about each client project.

We are comfortable working at board level with international brands and clients as a lead agency, or as part of a roster.

say hello
If you wish to talk to us about a project and see a short presentation of our work then please contact us:
studio: +44 (0)20 8275 8594
e: studio@twodesign.net

We are a small studio of under ten people who play as hard as they work. When you call, if no one answers then don't be disappointed, there are times when we are all busy doing things, we do want to talk to you, please leave a short message with your details and we will get back to you as soon as we can. If the sun is shining and it has been a long day, we may clear off early, to play football in the park, go to a gallery or go to the pub. Happy designers make good work and the result is happy clients, but this does mean sometimes we wont return your call straight away, please bear this in mind.

things we don’t do
Free pitch - if you want work for free go here
TV and motion work - but we know some talented people who can 'do'
Radio ads - see above
Buy media space - we leave that to the experts who we work with.
Allow studio visits - we'll save you time by visiting you, and we dont like to let 'other clients' see clients work in progress.
Offer an intern programme - we did, we got let down, we don't do it any more. Maybe in the future.
