Testimonials
“Rob and his team have been a pleasure to work with over the past couple of years during a critical time for us building up to Tokyo 2020. Their designs have added real weight to our media campaign, plus they’ve been great value too. Highly recommended.”
“Rob’s strategic design and creative solutions have been highly valued by us and his creative influence on the Crows brand will be a lasting legacy at the Club. We thank Rob for his wonderful work, his incredible attention to creative detail, his endeavour to push design boundaries and of course, his English wit and humour.”
“Rob is an outstanding creative who captures the essence of customer need which he allies to market understanding…..and he’s a thoroughly nice bloke too. A rare mix and one well worth connecting to.”
“Juggling the thought of a full rebrand whilst staying on top of my day-to-day work was daunting, but thankfully working with the KYAK Studio team has made the whole process a breeze! I was incredibly impressed with their creativity, fast response and overall support and guidance, even when I needed to pick their brains on matters outside of their remit. We collaborated over initial ideas so that they could then evolve these into a smart, modern, impactful design and brand concept that completely met the mark of what I was looking for. Their expertise in the fitness, sport and leisure industry meant they understood the target audience my brand needed to appeal to and I couldn’t be happier with the end result.”
“A big shout out to Rob and the team bringing my ideas to life. From someone who is a little less imaginative like myself and needs guidance, I highly recommend these guys. The initial brand review provided clarity and guidance on what the best process was and then into the development phase of the process, giving me chance to create content, add features, tweak, chop/change different ideas, ending in the final result. If you are looking for rebranding, marketing and an online presence I highly recommend the KYAK Studio team.”
“Working with Rob and the team at KYAK has been brilliant. I am absolutely delighted with the service I have received and the finished products are outstanding. I was hesitant about using a company to develop branding and produce a website for my business, but having worked with Rob and the team I can’t believe I hesitated! Their professionalism and customer service are second to none and the concepts they developed were unique and captured the ethos behind my business perfectly. Rob helped me through every stage of the process and made it as stress free as possible. He was super friendly and nothing was ever too much to ask, with every detail taken care of. I would definitely recommend using KYAK Studio!”
“I approached KYAK to design my logo and help create both business cards and social media assets and I wasn’t disappointed: A keen eye for detail and design and the ability to integrate that with the brief I’d given. What resulted was a high-end and sleek look which I was thrilled with. I valued both their creative input and the years of experience brought from working within the health and fitness industry. I would highly recommend KYAK based on the result and the ease of the process.”
