Collaborate works from Haddington, East Lothian, with a second base in Edinburgh, focusing on branding and graphic design for heritage organisations and visitor attractions across the UK and internationally. The practice has built a track record in environmental and interpretive graphic design, the kind of work found at castles, palaces, libraries and distilleries where visitors need to understand a place through signage, storytelling and visual identity as much as through a logo.
Services span visual identity, brand strategy and positioning, packaging identity, rebranding and brand guidelines, developed for clients looking to reach new audiences, speak to existing customers, or connect with people at a wider scale. Projects typically move from strategic positioning through to the visual systems and guideline documents that keep a heritage brand consistent across signage, print and packaging.
Clients include Hampton Court Palace, Kensington Palace, Lindisfarne Castle, Innerpeffray Library, Bombay Sapphire Distillery, Lost Shore Surf Resort and Cask Finery, a client list that spans royal palaces, historic libraries, distilleries and newer leisure destinations. This mix reflects the agency's particular grounding in interpretive design for heritage settings alongside branding work for hospitality and drinks businesses, giving it a footprint that runs from centuries-old visitor attractions to contemporary resort and spirits brands.
