Just like our clients, we want to facilitate positive change
At nooh Studio, our vision is to be a pioneer in community-led design, from health-tech to charities.
Here’s how we’re going to get there…
learning @ nooh means
We’re great at delving into the unknown - we get stuck in and pride ourselves on learning fast, without sacrificing the careful consideration that great design requires. We are all about making positive change by learning through creativity, because creativity is imperative when it comes to advancement, in any sphere. You have to think outside the box, push boundaries and have the freedom to do so.
Encouraging creativity is at the core of what we do. We are ever-improving, always learning as we go and always open to collaboration. What better way to improve than learning through creativity?
storytelling @ nooh means
We listen to understand - it’s essential for clear communication towards varying audiences, ensuring we’re conveying your message in your ideal tone of voice. In today’s overly-automated, fast-paced and digitally-driven society, maintaining a sense of humanity is becoming the new superior choice.
In our current environment, businesses can no longer afford to be dehumanised, faceless entities, so companies need to connect with their audiences, pull at their heartstrings, and engage with them on a much deeper level than previously seen. In a virtual and augmented world, there’s a craving for authenticity; businesses need to be candid about why they exist and why they matter consistently across all communication channels. This is why brand storytelling is so important - there needs to be a cohesive narrative that intertwines both the facts and the emotions that your brand gives rise to.
Community @ nooh means
Connecting people and ideas, creating a safe space to collaborate and innovate. The heart of our company is the community - we have frequently been told by our clients, the specialists and experts we work with that it feels like a family; something we are incredibly proud of.
We work with a lot of charities, not-for-profits and organisations who inevitably do some of the most meaningful work. It is a deeply personal and sensitive time for families who are benefited by these, therefore, conveying the sense of support through community is of the utmost importance. The fundamentals of these companies are communities and family support. We strive to make a positive difference, uplift the lives of the community and create a sense of family through supporting each other.
Who do we work with?
We work for community-led, positively impactful brands from an impressive range of purpose-driven industries: from charities, NGBs, start-ups, personal brands, agencies and consultancies, to healthcare, health-tech, sports and eCommerce.
We want to be noticed by forward-thinkers, innovators and those who strive for the improvement of our society and environment, locally and globally, for both present and future generations.
Why does community & storytelling matter?
A note from our founder, Helena Traill
In 2019, with the help of a Kickstarter campaign, I published 100 Stories of Cancer - a book that compiles a hundred different stories from people who have been affected by cancer. From there, my interest in the healthcare and community space grew exponentially.
The aim of the 100 Stories book is to promote open discussion and to normalise the conversation around cancer by documenting other people’s stories and representing them through design, this time in print.
In many ways, 100 Stories is still the blueprint for how I approach design. By telling stories, we immerse ourselves in someone else’s emotional world. By giving people the space to share their own stories, we can connect through our shared experiences. When we do both, we create powerful communities.
“Within a matter of days, Helena and her team had both understood and captured the essence of what our brand stood for - and so why we exist - from a standing start. Helena has gone on to support us with not only the brand refresh, but a new look and feel and navigation for our website, and set us up for success when it comes to our content and communication.”
