Micah Purnell is an award winning freelance graphic designer, artist, curator and author, with a taste for Norwegian sweaters, in Manchester, England.


His broad network of illustrators, animators, photographers and web developers means you have a one stop shop for any project with the ethics and direction lead by Micah. In all his projects he uses Design Thinking to find new ways to create “AHHH” moments. These always bring positive, memorable experiences.


We work with a variety of national and global clients including the NHS, The Guardian, Wembley Stadium, Department for International Trade, Havas Lynx, Tearfund, Bible Society, Pizza Express, Elbow, and The University of Manchester, not to mention his kids, who get him running around designing logos for their various enterprises.

As well as appearing in countless exhibitions over the last 25 years (including public group shows alongside Turner Prize Winner Douglas Gordon and global street artist JR), Micah has curated numerous projects with leading international artists, designers and thinkers on outdoor billboard galleries.


Features in publications include (among others) Prayer by the world renowned Benetton photographer Oliviero Toscani, published by Fabrica, Italy, and This Is The Place, which raised £130, 000 for charity after the Manchester Arena Bombing.

His work has appeared in The Guardian, Getty Images, Creative Review, Huffington Post, Creative Boom, Metro News, Artlyst, and Design Week. I’ve been lucky enough to speak ~ from London to New York and the People’s History Museum to the BBC.
