Big-brand experience. Independent-studio care.
Distinktive Design is a branding, web design, content and marketing agency based in Sussex. For more than 25 years we’ve helped organisations of every size — from blue-chip brands to first-time founders — look sharper, sell more and stand apart from the crowd.
Where we’ve come from
Our roots are in agency and in-house design for major national brands — the kind of work where detail, consistency and results are non-negotiable. Along the way the industry changed beyond recognition: print gave way to web, web to mobile, and social media became the shop window.
We changed with it. Today we combine classic brand and logo design with modern ecommerce, Shopify and WordPress development, hand-coded websites, SEO, social media strategy and content creation.
What that means for you
Whether you’re launching a start-up from your kitchen table or refreshing an established brand, you get the same rigour we’d bring to a national account — scaled to your budget and delivered by a small, responsive team who answer the phone.
- 25+ years in branding, design and digital
- Blue-chip, SME and start-up experience
- Ecommerce specialists: Shopify, WooCommerce & bespoke
- WordPress and hand-coded HTML/CSS websites
- SEO, social media and content in-house
What you can expect from us
Senior from day one
The people you meet are the people who do the work. No hand-offs to juniors after the sales call.
Strategy before style
We design with a reason. Every logo, page and post ties back to who you're for and what makes you different.
Built to perform
Fast, accessible, search-friendly websites and campaigns measured against real business numbers.
Straight talking
Clear quotes, honest advice and no jargon. If something isn't right for you, we'll say so.
In it for the long run
Most of our clients stay with us for years — for ongoing SEO, content, updates and new launches.
Local, not limited
Rooted in Sussex, working with businesses across the South East and the rest of the UK.
