About
ION Studio provides an opportunity for businesses and organisations, from any sector, to engage and collaborate with the best creative design talent in the South West.
The studio brings together: design professionals and graduating students from the School of Art, Design and Architecture who work together to offer a fresh, enthusiastic approach to a range of multi-disciplinary collaborative design services, supported by a team of academic-practitioners and with access to cutting-edge resources and technology.
It provides a creative platform to engage the students throughout the year, with a focus on them being employed by the studio full time in June and July. It enables them to hone their skills, working on client-based projects, whilst gaining valuable experience of professional practice.
This collaboration between business and academia provides a unique opportunity to achieve original, unexpected design solutions.
Services
The studio provides a range of design services, which can be tailored to fit your project and budget. Whatever your project requires we can build a team to deliver it.
The studio can accommodate short projects through which a team of accomplished graduates and academics work together to solve a specific design problem. Examples of projects include: graphic design, print, video, web, logo, brand and corporate identity, product design, 3D CAD modelling and prototyping, product visualisations, interior design and spatial planning.
We also welcome larger-scale research and development projects that require an in-depth approach and more focused skills, expertise and resources. A team of academic-practitioners, supported by talented graduates will work with you over a sustained period to deliver exceptional results, using the latest technologies and resources.
All projects are professionally project managed with an affordable, transparent pricing policy.
