About us

DayOne is a multi-award winning graphic design studio based in Kent, England.

We partner with marketing teams to create beautiful and meaningful creative work. By the way, we don’t use the term ‘partners’ casually; we truly believe that our finest work is the result of long-term collaboration with you and your marketing team.

The journey and destination

It’s quite simple really, we love producing excellent design work which keeps clients smiling, and their audiences listening.

For over 10 years Anthony, our founder, has been on a mission to build a design studio which simply made the experience of producing meaningful marketing communications, as painless as possible.

And so, DayOne was born with the idea that while marketing communication can be full of challenges, working with your design agency should never be one of them.

Through transparent communication, fair and predictable pricing, optimised workflows, on-time delivery and an exceptionally high standard of design work, DayOne is the creative agency of choice for those who want maximum value and minimal stress.
