design based on integrity, clarity and intelligence

Formally Clive Hilton Limited, we are a small design consultancy based in Buckinghamshire and we've been designing for more than ten years. Over that time we have established a reputation for drinking lots of coffee. The vast majority of our work comes from personal recommendations and word of mouth. And menacing threats.

how we work

First we listen carefully to our clients and then we go into a trance-like state for a while, after which a fully formed concept presents itself in living technicolour. At no time do we expend effort or get involved with anything resembling hard work at all. Not never. Ever. Well; maybe occasionally. And it says here that, "we're not happy until the client is happy". Actually, that's not strictly true; we're a lot happier once we've been paid.

our skills

Clive is a competent cyclist and some of his teeth are his own. He has a degree in Product Design and a Masters from the Royal College of Art in Design History. If pushed, he can remember how to make an origami water bomb.

 

Jilly has a degree in Sociology and, for a while, taught politics to the deprived children of an assortment of international ambassadors. This gave her an excellent grounding in her current role as our Project Manager. She likes going to The Sanctuary.

 

Heidi is to design marketing what lawn mowers are to daffodils. Through a thorough understanding of quantum mechanics she is able to combine five hundred years worth of marketing experience with a chronological age of a mere stripling.

 

Suz is a mathematical genius and knows more or less how many beans make five. In her spare time she likes base jumping from the local library roof and dancing. She looks after our accounts and has written numerous books on how to deal with the VAT man.

 

Monica can spell marcketing and only speaks when spoken to. She likes words like paradigm and yeah. When bothered, she can speak ten languages. Unfortunately, they are ten languages that no one else can.
