We are

Our team is a wonderfully diverse bunch of characters who complement and learn from each other. We range from experienced old souls to youthful talent and from conceptual thinkers to sticklers for detail. This mix enables us to come up with the best ideas – and the most attractive packaging.

GALAD means...

galad is a Sindarin word for “radiance”, “light”, or “reflection”.

Galad means radiance, glittering, reflection; light, fire, brightness, shining, bliss.

Yes, we love Tolkien, we love The Lord of the Rings, we love epic fantasies and fiction. 

We are geeks and proud of it. 
You want to know why?

BECAUSE WE LOVE STORIES.

We are passionate about stories. We love to hear them, we do our best to live them, and we absolutely LOVE to tell them.

We believe that the best brands, best business and best relationships are a story in itself and are made through telling stories.

We seek the unique, learn the unlearn-able, simplify the complicated, build the loveable, invent the unknown and imagine the impossible.

Our mission is to put a spotlight on YOU and help design and create a better future for the world we share.

It’s our mission to be the  light that pierces the darkness – not merely the darkness of the vast expanse of the yet unexplored digital world and it’s possibilities, but also the darkness in the actual world. We, each of us and all together as a team, desire to see and make the actual world a brighter, shinier, warmer place. 

We want to shine the light on products, brands, business and individuals we believe in. We partner with those who share our desire for the brighter future, using all our creativity, experience and, lets be honest, pure grit.

What makes us happiest of all are partnerships that lead to impactful projects and meaningful relationships. 

Projects that tell a story, those that bring one more ray of light into this world. We love to create designs that brighten people’s day, love when the projects we are involved in enlighten, and we love to see radiant smiles on our clients’ faces after a job well done. 

Design is people work. It’s all about attention and creativity, yes. But mixed with copious amounts of empathy. About loving the work but also those we do the work for. It’s a balance between knowledge, fresh ideas, perfect execution, hard work on one side and always being aware that we are humans trying to show other humans how actually amazing some product / service / idea / brand is.  And that’s exactly what Galad is committed to.

We are, after all (and before all) our client’s biggest fans. 

We are not merely a team. We are a family. (Quite literally, but also metaphorically.)
We understand the importance of relationships and value them above anything else.

Galad is a creative agency, working across the globe helping companies and individuals shine their light and be seen in the best light (pun intended) through research, bespoke strategy, consultancy, graphic design and implementation. 

We are a group of lateral thinkers, visual explorers, creative dreamers, technical abstractionists and humorous, warm people who are constantly challenging the boundaries (and often each other) to create amazing and creative branding solutions.
