Hambly & Woolley is a 9-person graphic design studio that has been quietly going about its business for more than 30 years. Our clients range from the education, health and not-for-profit sectors to interior and architectural design, retail, publishing and professional services. We make it our business to understand yours—and we love a challenge.  For each project, we assemble a team of disparate thinkers to achieve our goal: simple, hardworking design with clarity of purpose. 

We revel in our craft and frankly shrink from boasting about ourselves. While it makes us happy that we’ve consistently won design awards, it makes us happier when our clients meet their objectives and ask us to do more—or refer us enthusiastically. Many of our clients have been with us for years, even decades; we do our best work when we are your strategic partner. We’re proud that our work is both useful, and important.

Our values

We have the fleetness and personalized service of a small firm, but the professionalism and capabilities of a large one.

We don’t have a sales team–our projects are led by designers.

We ask a lot of questions, diving deep to gain intelligence and insight into your business objectives.

We fit the design to the problem, and not the other way around.

We do our best work when we become trusted long-term strategic partners to our clients, often over decades.

While design awards are a great recognition of our work, we believe meeting our client’s objectives—and earning the privilege of your referrals—means more.
