About
An artist owned and run creative company.
We’re small, independently owned, and provide accessible services to agencies, individuals, brands, and businesses that want to make a positive social impact. We also create consumer products, original artwork, and develop original IP.
Our company is Black owned and operated, and is committed to encouraging diversity within creative fields. We work towards creating social good in a direct and tangible way — from the teams we assemble, to the work we create, we push ourselves and our clients to be good, do good, and create good work.
We’ve been contracted to create for local and national brands, non-profits, and educational institutions with clients including The City of Toronto, Tim Hortons, Pride Toronto, T1 Agency, Nissan, Blue Crane Agency, Canadian Tire, Kids Help Phone, Warner Music Mexico, and Queen’s University.
Purpose
We believe that good creative doesn’t just look good – it does good. It feeds our communities and nurtures emerging talent.
We believe that good creative is born from diverse perspectives, and we’re driven to bring these diverse perspectives together to develop creative solutions that emphasize social good.
We believe that good creative should be accessible, that you shouldn’t pay for overheads, bloated teams and unnecessary internal review processes that require eight VPs and meetings that could have been an email.
We believe that good creative should be rooted in ethical design, social good, diversity, community and sustainability.
And most of all, we believe that doing good is just plain good business.
