Hello. We are The District. You could call us a Creative Agency, a Design Agency, or a Branding Agency, to a degree how we are defined is irrelevant. What matters is what we do and more importantly how we do it.\\We work in brand, digital, print and film. Over the past twelve years we have helped clients sell energy drinks, got bums on seats and people through doors. We've put a Science Centre without a home on the map, brought bricks and mortar to life and changed the face of the high street through art. We are big enough to offer a diverse range of skills, but small enough to huddle around a coffee table and work as one agency. We're big believers in the fact that our clients are given access to everything that we have to offer. If you decide to work with us you'll have a direct dialogue with the people who run The District and they will have a personal involvement in everything that we produce for you.\\We are the sort of people who have a frontroom rather than a boardroom. We are not ‘yes' people. We are ‘hmmm, okay but have you thought about it like this' people. We are obsessive about the visual, but never let design lead the idea. That is the tail wagging the dog. At the heart of every brief there lies a question. It is our job to answer that question.
