9 Years at Graphic House

9 years ago, two creatives moved into an empty beige-walled studio in the heart of Hinckley with just a printer, a kettle, and a shared vision. That space? Graphic House. That duo? Us, Alex and Elliott. And this May marks 9 whole years of Brio living, working, and growing within these brilliant bricks. From flat-pack desks to full-blown branding campaigns, the journey’s been anything but beige.

From Day One to Year Nine 

Let’s throw it back to 2017. The walls were a little emptier, our robot collection was still in its infancy, and the paint smell was still fresh. But even back then, the creative energy was strong. The room had good bones… and even better broadband.

Fast forward to 2024 and the space has morphed into something much more “us.” Colourful characters on the walls, shelves full of robot mascots, and two very well-worn desk chairs later. Graphic House isn’t just where we work, it’s our creative command centre.

What’s Changed (and What Hasn’t) 

Over the past 9 years, we’ve branded colleges, launched campaigns, reimagined town centres, and occasionally remembered to water the office plants. While the projects, clients and tech have all evolved, our commitment to creativity, personality and punchy design has stayed rock solid.

One thing we especially love? Visitors still comment on how “fun” our space feels. It’s part studio, part gallery, part toy museum. If you’ve ever been greeted by a LEGO Alex and Elliott or spotted a vintage tin robot staring at you mid-meeting… you’re welcome.

Looking Back, Thinking Forward 

Nine years is a long time in creative years, just ask our original MacBooks. But here we are, still making bold work, still experimenting, still arguing about fonts (lovingly, of course). We’ve built something special inside these walls. Graphic House has seen countless logos take shape and ideas come to life. We’re proud of the work we’ve done and even more excited about what’s coming next. Here’s to 9 years of Brio at Graphic House… and the next chapter of bigger, bolder, better design.
