What we do At Nous we assess and understand; strategise and scope; design, direct, and deliver the services needed to communicate the personality of brands. Large or small, start-up or long-established, our client base is as broad as our interests are wide. We dig deep into our clients’ worlds, philosophies, personalities and ambitions, not only to provide any immediate assets, but to create strategic clarity and provide on-going consistent support. Between us Nous has a wealth of diverse experience in harnessing brand value and we have all the in-house skills needed to deliver projects from seed to launch.
Our philosophy Nous is a very personal business. A keen interest and belief in our clients and what they do is our fuel. From that comes the most efficient distillation of their requirements and a honed, exacting focus on how to communicate their proposition. While our processes and methods are well defined, our approach to design is varied, always led by the fundamental user-experience. Ethics, decency, value and great care are the foundation of our lasting partnerships. In such a context we work with our clients to realise and communicate both their unique offering and best selves.
