SO we create

DESIGN THINKING

“Imagine you had a superpower, what would you do with it?”

“What's your company's

unique brand story?”

“How visual

is your business?”

“Have you ever redefined

your boundaries?”

“What ideas can you

think of today?”

“What have you done that has been unexpectedly successful?”

“If your company was an animal, which one would it be and why?”

“Think of a colour,

how doe's it make you feel?”

“Have you ever walked

in your customer's shoes?”

“What would happen if you did things the other way around?”

“When was the last time your business created disruption?”

“Do you know what your brand means to your customers?”

“Visualise your success,

what it would look like?”

Our radical brand design for 4 All Green is defining this new UK gardening services company as ground breaking within the sector.

Successful businesses work with us because we help them become even more successful and sustainable with our unique creative specialisms, inspiring them to achieve their vision and the business goals.

We truly believe that every small business has the potential inside to be great and that this greatness can be released.

To do this we offer small businesses access to a level of creative expertise that is normally only reserved for bigger companies and international brands.

We view all our relationships as long term ones - just like a marriage.

To us a client isn’t 'just the latest business deal or transaction' it's a wholesome relationship of mutual trust built on knowing you as a person and your business as a community.

We work with businesses and people all around the globe; from the UK, Europe to the USA and Canada and because of our multi-cultural experience we see language and culture as an exciting opportunity to share and explore new ways to be creative.

We are a citizen of the universe and work with all types of clients regardless of nationality, race, creed, sexuality, belief or location - we would even want to work with Aliens if we thought we could add value!

Everything we create for you delivers a return on investment (ROI) for your business.

We help make your business shine and stand out from everyone else by putting the spotlight on you with well thought out solutions that are unexpected, original and necessary for your business.

Your business is like a jigsaw - many parts that have to fit together to work perfectly.

And this is what we do, we connect the pieces of your business's visual communication to your customers so that they remember your unique value.

Our creativity helps you drive forward your business in a different direction to your competition, enabling you to gain the strategic competitive advantage.

We are SO we create, a next generation creative consultancy that solves your business problems and challenges with simply wowderful ideas that make you feel great, your business more successful and your customers smile.

We are a very small but powerful team of creative oddballs that use our concentrated brain power and expertise to create and deliver exceptionally bespoke ideas that create value for your brand.

We are exceptional visual story tellers that use our creative specialisms and expertise to visually broadcast your unique business story to the world, enticing customers to buy from your business and not your competitors.

Just like the elite S.A.S. unit in the British Army we are always improving and developing our specialist skills so that we can create and deliver more value for our clients and their businesses.

We have endless passion for what we do for you.

This comes from the very heart of who we are, our purpose and our love for questioning why things are done the way they are and creating the best possible solution for you.

We love creating unexpected original ideas and we never bypass our unique creative process as we know that the more time we invest in thinking the more unique and unexpected our ideas become for you.

We can ‘actually draw’ and use our traditional creative skills, abilities and unique creative process to develop our ideas before using all the latest technology.

We use the latest technology to facilitate our deeply thought out ideas and to assist in taking them to the next level so that the design solutions we create are near perfect.

Other creative companies like to say that they 'think out of the box'; but to us the box isn't a box at all.

The box is a limitation to pure creative thinking and intellect.

We embrace simplicity and minimalism.

It's incredibly difficult to create visual clarity by simplification. Through simplicity we create pure clarity of message which communicates quicker to your customers.

We are creative explorers; and like the first humans on the moon we thrive on discovering new worlds.

We love finding new expressions of creativity that can be investigated and that can be moved forward to new frontiers.
