Specialisms
Visual Identity

Logo design and beyond, our identity designers create the entire look and feel of a business, brand or campaign’s visual presence – providing useable assets and brand guidelines for future application.

Editorial Design

Our editorial designers work with clients and editors to create layouts with carefully selected typography and accompanying artwork, including photography, graphics and illustrations. For printed publications, we work with experienced printers and advise clients on paper stocks, formats, colour matching, timescales and sustainable options. For digital publications, we include levels of interactivity, and are designed with social in mind. Our editorial projects include Books, Journals, Magazines, Reports and White Papers.

Motion Design

Our motion designers bring designs, brands and content to life through animation, audio, typography, imagery, video, 3D and other effects that are used across online media, television and film. 

Marketing + Advertising Design

We create a broad array of marketing and advertising assets for print and digital channels, including magazine + newspaper ads; social media ads + banners; posters + billboards; signage + event displays; presentations + toolkits; brochures + leaflets, invites + menus; and vehicle wraps. 

Digital Design

For social and beyond, our digital designers cover all aspects of design on digital platforms, making full use of motion and interactive capabilities. Our web designers + developers create desktop, mobile and tablet-friendly websites for a broad range of organisations - they design and develop easy-to-use interfaces and ensure a user-friendly on-brand experience, balancing aesthetic appeal with technical functionality.

Naming + Copywriting

Freuds assists clients with naming recommendations, taglines and slogans for brands, products or campaigns.

Environmental Design

From office signage to vehicle wraps, merchandise to gifting, tailor-made events to tradeshow stands – our design team works with clients to ensure that the required space has the greatest visual impact. 

Data Visualisation

There are countless ways to showcase data across multiple channels, and our team of data visualisation designers and motion designers work with clients to bring information to life.

Illustration + Artworks

Our designers all have their own illustrative and artistic styles we can bring to a project, and we always look to outside illustrators and artists to be involved where a certain style is needed. Illustrative design can sometimes lead the visual design or be a small part of it – but however it is used, it will always bring originality to a project.

Case Studies

Nestled in the heart of The Cotswolds, Bull is an intimate 18-bedroom hotel, beautifully refurbished in a Grade II listed 16th-century inn. When the Bull opened in 1536, it was a coaching inn, a place for tired horses to recover and prepare themselves for the next long ride. The new Bull aspires to offer the same service to anyone on a journey who might need a moment to catch their breath.

Freuds created the entire visual identity for the Hotel, and in 2025, Bull won a coveted Michelin Key - an award given by the Michelin Guide to hotels and accommodations for outstanding quality and service.

Resonance by Heston Blumenthal was the libationary and culinary offering from the Fat Duck Group. Freuds was tasked with creating a brand identity for a luxury bar concept which spoke to the meaning of the word ‘resonance’ - the power to evoke enduring memories and emotions.

We landed on the idea of Resonance inspired by growth in nature. Finding fractal-like patterns repeating themselves in different settings, like branches of a tree, mycelium networks, in coral reef, the veins of a giant lily pad, the satellite images of city lights, the sounds and emotions in a busy bar cascading across the space. Each person that interacts with the identity will have a different experience and resonate with it differently.
