Us

Neil (Copy) and Paul (Art) first met in 2016, while working at Grey London under Nils Leonard. Their previous agency experience of 20+ years each, includes Droga5 Sydney, DDB, adamandeveDDB / The Leith Agency, BBDO, DKLW Lowe and Leo Burnett. Since 2019 they’ve freelanced at agencies with in-house teams in the UK, US and Europe, both remotely and on-site.

Why us?

Creativity is our passion. But not the self-indulgent kind (at least, not when we’re on the clock). We get excited by big ideas and put in the work to get to authentic, original ideas fast, even when the goalposts keep shifting.

We cut through the noise and reframe problems to unlock long-term platforms, executed with modern campaigns, sharp strategy, exquisite copy and crafted visuals.

Hire us if you want a creative force who are on the same page, that’s nice to be around, who you can trust to make anything you throw at them as good as it can be.

We’ll make the worry go away.

What they say about us

“Paul and Neil are brilliant to work with.

They’re super talented and have that fantastic ability to take those nutty, complex problems and create elegantly simple solutions.

They are a creative team of the highest quality – and nice guys too.

The complete package.”

Ian Haworth, Executive Creative Director McCann.


“Paul and Neil are a fantastic team. Lateral thinking but extremely precise. Big ideas, but as granular as needed when we need to get granular.

They keep calm even when we are working with tighter than tight deadlines. They work hard even when we have all the time in the world.

They are fantastic to work with – everyone in the agency is a fan. And most importantly, they are just fantastic to be around.”

Lucas Peon, CCO The Gate London
