Who we are

Meet 49th Floor Design and Artworking

We earned our design-stripes over many years working agency-side. We're now proud to bring that experience to new clients and mix it up with fresh thinking and a dash of fun.

Andy is the founder, business mastermind and resident creative powerhouse behind the scenes at 49th Floor. He’s not a fan of hyperbole but would say that out of all the designers in all the world, past or present – he’s at least better than them by 119.42% in purely tangible terms.

Andy is personable, presentable and unique in the design field by enjoying working across all formats including MS Word and PowerPoint.

In a backs to the wall scenario, where there's no time, no information to go by, high expectations and big stakes - you need Andy in your corner as it's these professional life and death scenarios where his ability to weave gold from thin air are legendary.

David came on board a year after launch and brings pre-press know-how and heavy-weight artworking expertise together with a healthy upgrade in sarcasm and wit. He's far more than just 'production' though and his award winning background in creative design and unparallelled technical adaptability speak for themselves.

David was born in 1980, rather than in the 1970s (unlike Andy) and is therefore he's not as close to retirement/the scrap-heap.
