What We Do
Design HQ is a design agency that operates differently from most. We are not a large studio where your brief disappears into a pipeline. We are a small, senior team — and we work on your project directly.
We offer two ways to engage: one-off projects with fixed timelines and transparent pricing, and design subscriptions for companies that need ongoing creative support at a predictable monthly cost. Both models use the same team, the same standards, and the same 48-hour turnaround on first concepts.
If you’re looking for a design partner rather than a task queue — that’s what we’re built for.
Your Creative Process. Reimagined.
Got a clear brief? Great. Just an idea? Even better. We’ll help shape it into a sharp creative direction.
We assemble the perfect mix of creative heads. They learn your brand, your voice, and your goals.
We explore bold ideas, refine what works, and perfect every detail, together.
You get polished, launch-ready assets, plus the reactions that matter.
Brand Identity
A great brand is more than a logo — it’s a complete visual language that your whole organisation can use. We build identities from the initial concept through to a full design system: durable, distinctive, and built to scale.
Includes: Logo system (primary, secondary, monogram) · Colour palette & typography · Brand guidelines · Stationery & social media kit
From £1,800 · Typical timeline: 2–4 weeks
Brand Identity →
UI / UX Design
Interface design grounded in research, not assumptions. We map user journeys, build wireframes, produce high-fidelity UI, and hand off to your development team with clean Figma specs and zero guesswork.
Includes: User research & journey maps · Wireframes & IA · High-fidelity UI · Interactive prototype · Developer handoff (Figma)
From £2,400 · Typical timeline: 3–6 weeks
UI / UX Design →
Motion Graphics
Lottie animations, scroll effects, product launch videos, and micro-interactions. We design motion that earns its place — performant, purposeful, and on-brand. Not decorative filler.
Includes: Logo animation · Lottie / JSON files · Social motion content · Launch or explainer video · UI micro-interactions
From £900 · Typical timeline: 1–3 weeks
Motion Graphics →
Web Design
Pixel-perfect websites built on modern stacks — Astro, React, Tailwind. We design and build sites that are fast, accessible, and beautiful at every screen size. Core Web Vitals green. No compromises.
Includes: Visual design & layout · Responsive prototyping · CMS integration · Performance optimisation · Launch support
From £3,200 · Typical timeline: 4–8 weeks
Web Design →
Print & Packaging
Typographically precise design for publications, packaging, pitch decks, and printed collateral. We understand physical media — colour profiles, bleed, and printer specs — so production-ready files are ready from day one.
Includes: Packaging design · Print-ready layouts · Pitch decks & reports · Poster & banner design · Production file preparation
From £600 · Typical timeline: 1–2 weeks

From bold brand identities to immersive digital experiences, we craft design solutions that drive results and transform businesses.
Why DesignHQ
48-Hour First Concepts
You share the brief — we share the first design direction within 48 hours. No long discovery retainers before a single pixel appears.
Unlimited Revisions
We iterate until the work is exactly right. No revision caps, no penalty charges for feedback — iteration is part of the process.
Senior Designers, Not Junior Pipelines
Your work is done by the senior designers on our team. Not delegated to the most junior person available. We’ve been doing this since 2016 — and the quality shows.
Full-Spectrum, One Studio
Brand, UI/UX, motion, web, and print — handled by one coordinated team. No briefing multiple agencies and hoping the output feels coherent.
Both Project and Subscription Models
One-off projects with defined scope. Or a monthly design subscription for ongoing needs. You choose the model that fits your business — and you can switch.
Proven Across 500+ Projects
We’ve shipped over 500 projects since 2016, across startups, scale-ups, and established brands. The experience shows in how we handle briefs, feedback, and delivery pressure.
Design HQ v/s Competitors
Design HQ
Faster, more flexible, and more reliable than in-house teams with AI-assisted workflows.
In-house team
Limited bandwidth and skills make scaling tough.
Creative agencies
Strong work but slow, costly, and rigid.
Freelancers
Unreliable, inconsistent, and hard to scale.
Self-service tools
Okay for basics, weak on strategy and creativity.
What Clients Say
Design at the speed of business — we're your dedicated creative team that delivers world-class design without the overhead.
"We come with messy ideas. They come back with a clear brand strategy that helped us close our Series A in three weeks. They don’t just design—they decode your brand."
"They didn’t chase trends. They built sharp, credible designs that helped us win Fortune 500 clients. B2B design is about trust—and they get that."
"In six weeks, DesignHQ delivered a full brand ecosystem—better quality, lower cost, and way faster than our last agency. This is how design should feel."
"Before launch, they turned us from ‘early startup’ into ‘enterprise-ready.’ Clients took us seriously. Investors did too. Design changed the game."
