Design for_ 

Putting people, purpose and progress at the heart of design and digital innovation. 

Our Mission

Delivering digital and design solutions that change our world for the better.

Design for Change was born from real world experiences. For over 25 years we have both survived and thrived in the world of digital and design. Our secret? An ability to adapt and evolve to changing business and technology landscapes without forgetting who we are, or our responsibilities to the people and planet supporting us. Today we impart this experience and expertise with our clients; some are only starting their journeys, but many others have been in step with us since the beginning.

Sustainable design and change are built from the ground up. We form partnerships with businesses and organisations to help them achieve real and meaningful change that is driven by true purpose. It shouldn’t feel like just another corporate initiative or campaign, it should feel like a movement. Our solutions and strategies are always human-centred, prioritising user needs, accessibility, inclusivity and sustainability. The question you should be asking is not if you need to change, but when.

Visualising the Future: Scientific Data & Reports

Why Change Matters

Responding to change is not enough – it’s time to start driving it.

Our world experiences one crisis after another, from environmental collapse to social upheaval. While this can sometimes feel very far away from our day-to-day business, it’s our belief that every organisation has the potential to become a force of positive transformation. Our products, our processes and our decisions can all bring benefits to the people, communities and planet that surround and support us. Even better, we can adopt meaningful change into our core strategies and still see significant commercial benefits.

Adapt. Change. Evolve. Disruption is now the norm for commercial success, and the pace of change continues to accelerate. Once it was enough to keep up and follow trends, but today “followers” can arrive late and lacking in authenticity. Finding your purpose, understanding how that can and should drive positive change inside and outside of your organisation is a great place to start. Designing and embedding solutions that are scalable, sustainable and genuinely meaningful is where to continue. The result? A future where everybody wins.

  • 3.
    What services do you provide?

    Our services fall into four key areas:

    Strategy – From big brand strategies to project briefs, we can help you ask and answer the right questions to know who you are, what you need and where you want to go in the future. We’ll immerse ourselves in your organisation, ensuring your business and project goals align to deliver products and services that truly resonate with users and drive meaningful, sustainable commercial growth.

    Creative – Design is the foundation of everything we do, but it’s about so much more than just aesthetics. Sure, we’ll give you something beautiful, on paper or in pixels, but we’ll also create a solution that is practical, with purpose, and that delivers the impact you need.

    Experiences – People are at the heart of every business, from the ones you work with to the ones who use your products and services. Let us help you deliver authentic online and offline experiences, from beautiful websites and digital platforms to thought-provoking reports and publications.

    Data – With a portfolio and client list including some of the world’s leading scientific and governmental organisations, visualising data has become one of our specialities. Whether this is for technical figures and graphs within a report, or an infographic to translate complex data into meaningful information for a wider audience, our team have the skills and expertise you need. You can also trust that your data is safe in our hands – we often work with embargoed data and all our project materials are safely stored within cloud-based systems backed by the highest cyber-security standards and authentication.

    How much do you charge for your services?

    Every organisation and project are unique, so we don’t have a one-size-fits-all solution for our services. We work with every client on an individual basis, but don’t worry – bespoke doesn’t necessarily mean expensive. Our ethos is to be open, honest and transparent, really getting under the hood of who you are and what you want to achieve; we work together to make sure you have a solid strategy and plan in place, avoiding the dreaded scope creep and ensuring you also aren’t paying for anything unnecessary.

    If you have a new project you want to collaborate with us on, send us the brief and we’ll be in touch to discuss it further and provide you with a quote.
