A small studio that stays close to the work.

Fourteen designers, developers and writers in one room on Commercial Quay. We take on around twenty projects a year, so each one gets a partner and our full attention.

Started in a spare room in Leith in 2012.

Ines Moreau left a big agency in London to work with fewer clients, more closely. The idea hasn’t changed: small teams, fixed prices and a partner on every project. Most of our clients have been with us for years, and most of our new work comes from them.

2026

Fourteen people, 126 projects, still one room.

Four things we don’t compromise on.

Show work early

Rough sketches in week one beat polished surprises in week eight. You see everything, including the bad ideas.

Say it plainly

If a stranger can’t tell what you do in five seconds, the design isn’t finished yet.

Make it last

We design systems your team can run without us, then we stay around in case you want us.

Keep teams small

Two to four people per project, led by a partner. Nobody gets handed off.

The people you’ll work with.
