Studio

The studio works with artists, cultural institutions, arts organisations, the music industry, publishers, brands and initiatives across branding, art direction, editorial and publication design, exhibition design, typography and websites. Projects begin through conversation and are developed into clear visual directions, shaping ideas into visual outcomes that are specific, considered and material.

Ashley Kinnard is a London-based artist, publisher and graphic designer whose wider practice also moves through type design and code. Driven by a restless curiosity, the work follows ideas wherever they lead, welcomes accidents, and does not always know where it is going until it arrives.

Conceptual typography, materiality, and print production are central concerns, alongside an ongoing engagement with independent publishing and visual research. The studio holds the view that the best design comes from somewhere close to instinct, not the boardroom.

Recent projects include New Contemporaries, ODDA Recordings, Stranger Pages, and SET Film Festival.
