About Us

The 16K Design Works are a creative design agency based in Edinburgh, specialising in graphic design, digital illustration & website development.

Established in 1997 we’ve now been in business a wee while and have done a bit of pretty much everything in our time. We tend to excel in areas where the client prefers exciting creative work that stands out against their competition. Design that is actually done by the fully experienced designer at the end of the phone.

We’ve worked with all aspects of graphic design, regularly producing logo’s, branding & signage, magazines, booklets & programmes, CD & record sleeves, leaflets flyers & posters, websites and online campaigns. Including everything from the initial brand to all the additional promotional materials required for a project.

We work with clients both throughout the UK and internationally. Tending to focus on the arts, leisure, entertainment and environmental sectors, although we’ve dabbled in most areas at some point or another.

We like to think our creativity helps us stand out against the competition, with our work feeling fresher, brighter and more exciting with every job. Each project is a fresh challenge that we embrace wholeheartedly, and it’s these new challenges that keep us excited about our work each day! We genuinely love what we do, and always aim to create the very best work we possibly can for a project, a design that we love and can be proud of too!

Don’t hesitate to call or email if you’d like to discuss a new project with us, we’re always looking for new work and no job is too large or too small.
