Apparently this is where I’m supposed to tell you that T Creative is an award-winning, full-service, multidisciplinary creative agency delivering innovative, customer-focused, end-to-end brand experiences through strategic thinking, disruptive ideas, meaningful storytelling, scalable solutions and digital transformation.

I might have missed a few.

If you’ve ever looked at half a dozen agency websites, you’ll know they all say pretty much the same thing. Change the logo at the top and you’d struggle to know whose site you’re actually reading.

I’d rather just tell you how I work.

T Creative is just me. I’ve been a graphic designer for over 20 years, and I still love what I do. Some of the people I worked with two decades ago are still clients today, which probably tells you more than any paragraph full of marketing jargon ever could.

I never really understood why some agencies make you speak to six different people before you get to the designer.

You came for the designer.

Here I am.

Most projects start with a conversation. Not a discovery workshop. Not a strategy session. Just a proper chat. I ask questions, I listen, I scribble notes and somewhere along the way the ideas begin to appear.

I don’t have a house style because every business has its own personality. My job isn’t to make your business look like mine. It’s to help people see what already makes yours different.

One week it might be branding a family jeweller that’s been around for nearly 50 years. The next it could be packaging for a new product, a website for a charity, a private chef, a speaker, a global brand or a business that’s simply outgrown the way it looks.

Outside work I’m usually making prints, wandering around Manchester taking photographs or getting distracted by old signs, faded lettering and things most people walk straight past. Those little details have a habit of finding their way into my work.

If you’ve read this far, thank you. It means you’re probably the sort of person who likes to look beyond the shiny homepage.

If you think we might get on, give me a call.  It costs nothing, and every project I’ve ever enjoyed started with exactly that.
