Massive thanks to the brilliant Paul Pethick, who led us through Lego® Serious Play®, a powerful way to unlock ideas, spark conversations, and give everyone an equal voice. As Paul says, it’s “play with purpose” and he’s not wrong. The workshop opened up fresh ways of thinking in driving collaboration and creativity with our clients. Big shoutout to Paul Pethick and Emma Hopton for bringing the session to life. If our Lego® models are anything to go by, the future’s looking bright. #lego #workshop #designagency #collaboration #purpose

We’ve been featured on Creative Boom – a spotlight on the work, the mindset, and the magic that drives Taxi Studio. This piece says it loud and clear: you don’t need a London postcode to deliver world-class design. We’ve been proving that for two decades – rejuvenating brands, transforming their futures, and leaving a lasting impact. Massive thanks to Abbey Bamford and the team at Creative Boom for the feature – and to Natalie Matti and Karl Wills and the rest of crew, clients, and collaborators for fuelling the ride. A special mention for Jamie Brown for capturing the new studio so perfectly! ✨ https://lnkd.in/eHv9F4eJ

A brilliant final day at The FUTURE Of... DESIGN, where Spencer Buck delivered a thought-provoking keynote, tackling the big question: Is Design Dead? His take? Design isn’t dead—but it is deadly effective when leveraged in the right way. He called out the superficiality of today’s design trends and the widening gap between ‘disruption’ and meaningful, long-term impact. He broke down how brands can move beyond hollow gimmicks to create designs that are distinctive, emotionally resonant, and built for the future. So, is design dead? Not if we push beyond the surface and create unforgettable work that endures. Thank you to David Butler, John Gleason, Fred Richards and Elisabeth Emory for an incredibly insightful few days and for welcoming us as sponsors.
