Design that turns information* into something people want to engage with

Some projects need a new identity.
Others need an existing identity used brilliantly.

We help businesses and brands turn ideas, information and content into design that’s clear, engaging and beautifully put together.

How we can work together*

Editorial design

Long-form design is where our love of detail really earns its keep.

Reports, publications and brochures need more than a polished layout. They need structure, pace and hierarchy — so readers know where to look, what matters and how the information fits together.

We bring together typography, grids, imagery, data, colour and white space to make even complicated content feel clear, considered and easy to navigate.

Annual reports · Impact reports · Research publications · Prospectuses · Magazines · Guides · White papers · Brochures · Multi-page PDFs.

Graphic design support

For everything your brand needs beyond the logo.

We take established identities and put them to work across the things you actually need — keeping everything recognisable and connected without making every piece look exactly the same.

Brochures & publications · Presentations & pitch decks · Social graphics & templates · Event materials & signage · Infographics & diagrams · Print & marketing materials

A design partner

For businesses and organisations with regular design needs, Type & Thread can become the studio you call when something needs making.

We get to know your brand and how your team works, so you don’t have to start from the beginning every time. That means less re-explaining, fewer one-off design decisions and everything feeling much more joined up.

And because the details matter, we think about the practical bits too — from typography, hierarchy and image treatment to file setup, print specifications and final artwork.

Beautiful is good. Beautiful and technically sound is better.
