We’re a Newcastle based design agency, that creates beautiful things for the web, print, and of course, really great branding.
We’re a well mannered, small, but perfectly formed design studio. In our day to day, we work with some fantastic companies, and even better people.
We also work alongside some fantastic suppliers, who deal with all of the things we don’t! Our friends work in P.R. & marketing, photography, technical development and print.
We never mark up their quotes or invoices, it keeps things simpler for everyone. You know you’re getting the kind of value you should be, from everyone involved in your project, and we can sleep easy at night.
Although we specialise in branding & website design, we also offer other key services, including the design & build of e-newsletters, client managed e-newsletter systems, printed material including stationery, flyers & brochures as well as flash animation & full flash websites.
We have clients throughout the UK, some in Leeds & others in London. We’re easy to get in touch with, and you’ll always talk to the person actually doing the work, rather than a middle man.
Who’s Alan though?
Alan used to be Alex’s nickname. With questions like “what are me & alan doing” and statments such as “me & alan going for lunch” were common place, and it just seemed to stick!
We’re not the kind of people who will take on a job that we’re not confident that we can do, manage or complete. We just don’t like saying yes, then letting people down.
One thing we don’t do at me & alan is speculative work - we truly believe that speculative design (or pitching) is a really damaging process to the design industry as well as to our clients, and choose not to participate in it.
You will find that most designers have to ramp up their costs vastly to cover the initial ‘free’ bit of work they’ve done. Not pitching helps us keep your costs down, as we’re not doing non paid work for other people when we should be looking at your project!
So far, our portfolio and ‘approachable-ness’ has been enough for all of our clients to take the plunge! We strongly believe our work speaks volumes, and our clients agree.
So... have a flick through our portfolio - and if you’d like to know more after that, there’s loads more on our website!
Still want to know more? You should probably pop in for a cup of tea!
Give us a call or pop an email over and let us know when you’d like to come in… we’ll make sure the kettle’s on.
