We are 14c

We believe that collaboration is the key component of every creative project – from tackling a design brief, to developing an educational programme or making a movie. Working as one unit with co-designed goals and objectives produces outcomes that create impact and memorable experiences for everyone involved.

 

We work in partnership with progressive organisations, community groups and schools to develop and deliver impactful, creative solutions. Get in touch, we would love to work with you.

Testimonials

  • Professional, educational and FUN! Cannot recommend 14c highly enough. Kids were engaged and loved learning more about how to use their phones to create more professional content.

    - Fresh Creations

  • Friendly, utterly professional and client focused. Would (and already have) recommend 14c Studio for stunning design work.

    - Albatross Arts

  • I worked with 14c on branding and marketing concepts for ten30 as well as various side projects. The creative input coupled with professionalism and friendly disposition ensured great work every time. 14c genuinely care about the client's needs and have the confidence and knowledge to successfully drive projects. Always a pleasure to work.

    - Ten30 fashion

  • A big and public thank you to 14c Studio for developing our new brand. This is the 3rd time I've used 14c for various design works, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you!
