Who we are

Three decades of building brands
that hold up.

For over thirty years, Design Minds has helped Irish and International businesses look like themselves: clearly, confidently, and consistently. We specialise in logo design and brand communications, and we have been at it long enough to know that a mark is only as good as everything built around it.

We are a team of designers and developers, working with everyone from start-ups to Global Brands. The scale of the project changes; the care does not.

What we do

Logo design

The mark itself. Researched, drawn and tested until it works at every size, in every medium, for decades rather than seasons.

Brand identity

Everything the mark needs around it. Palette, type, tone, and the guidelines that keep it consistent long after we hand it over.

Print & brochure

Brochures, reports, packaging and point of sale, prepared as print-ready artwork by people who know what a printer will send back.

Web design

Sites built brand-first rather than template-first, so what you spent on the identity is still visible on the screen.

Brand communications

Advertising, campaigns, signage and exhibition. The places your brand meets people when you are not in the room.

How we work

Every project runs on the Double Diamond: diverge, then decide, twice.

01

Discover

We ask the awkward questions early. Who you are actually for, what you are competing against, and what is genuinely different.

02

Define

We narrow it to a single clear proposition. Most projects go wrong here, by trying to say everything at once.

03

Develop

Routes are designed, tested and argued over internally before you ever see them. You get considered options, not a mood board.

04

Deliver

Final artwork, guidelines and master files. Prepared so the next designer, printer or developer can pick it up cleanly.

The studio

The View, Malahide Marina Village

We work on the water in Malahide, ten minutes from the airport and half an hour from the city. Clients are welcome in. Most of the best work starts around the table rather than over email.
