About

  • Alexandra and Leo on Stairs Cornish Design Company

We are a leading design, brand and web agency based in Cornwall, creating simple, effective communication in corporate identity, print and digital design.

Our senior designers take the time to understand your company so they can help create your visual brand, delivering intelligent ideas that connect to your customers. We love the process, be it typography, illustration, photography, the colour palette or the online user journey. We make sure your company communicates, tells its story and connects to its audience. 

 

Team

A great team,
working with you.

We get inside the head of your business, so you'll come to think of us as an internal department with the flair of an independent creative agency.

We love design but we understand that it's a business tool with clear goals, so we also have a fantastic account manager and a part-time office assistant and copywriter. You always get Simon, Leo or Becky working on your important creative projects; that's why a lot of our main accounts have been with us for over nine years.

    Leo Stockley
    Senior Designer.

    Leo is a creative powerhouse, and has an in-depth understanding of branding with a keen eye for illustration and typography. A fantastic web designer who creates strong, structured user journeys.

    Clients love working with Leo: he has a relaxed manner but gets projects completed at lightning speed and normally under budget (which they also love). Leo has a background in magazine and packaging design. He always keeps a camera close at hand, and in his spare time loves print-making. Leo’s approach is ideas-led, beginning with the pencil, and there is consistently strong attention to detail, colour and craft.

    Alexandra Morgan
    Copywriter

    Alexandra has been with us since the beginning, and there isn’t much she doesn’t know about copywriting and proofreading.

    She's never far from a book, and holiday packing used to be an equal split between books and clothes. (The Kindle now allows for a few more wardrobe options.) Alexandra is truly inquisitive about words, and relishes the process. She can create the correct tone to suit any brand message, and also provides an invaluable proofreading service.

    Graphic Designer

    Becky is Design 79’s extra pair of hands, providing vital support for us.

    With an already established, and impressive, career in Graphic Communication, Becky brings her passion for all things design to the company.

    Becky's versatility, patience and attention to detail means she can work on both large and small projects for print and web. She makes full use of her BA Hons in Graphic Communication, and is enthusiastic to find that individual touch for each client.

    When she's not designing, Becky can usually be found outside, where relishes her time spent embracing everything outdoors, from the sea to the mountains.

Collaborate

Some great partnerships
making it right for you.

All projects require creative communication and account management, that's the core of our business. But we also contract in specialist production services when they're required.

The world of website programming is changing at breakneck speed, and in order to make sure your online project is future-proof we collaborate with some amazing programming teams. We also know all the right people for printing, fabrication, signage installation, filming and photography.

Process

Processes in place
for successful project delivery.

Debs will be your dedicated project manager, overseeing all aspects of the process and ensuring that expectations are exceeded and budgets kept to.

  1. 1. Listen.

    To gain a complete understanding of your company we ask the right questions, and we'll listen to you. What are your company's values? Who's the competition? What do your audiences want...?

  2. 2. Think.

    We'll brainstorm, sketch and research. Condense down the communication problem. Are our ideas memorable? Should it be an app? Where best to spend the advertising budget? Would a video best reach the target audience?

  3. 3. Create.

    The pot is now bubbling away, full of ideas. We'll review our work, challenge our thinking, and distill down to a beautiful, simple presentation.

  4. 4. Deliver.

    You love the idea - it ticks all the boxes for your company and tells a compelling brand story. The website build stage, the brand manual, the creative advertising campaign; we make sure that everything works and all business goals are met.
