N9 is a creative agency that's been adding sparkle to brands and businesses since 2004. We specialise in bringing big ideas to life and delivering them across print and digital environments. We have a jargon-free, no-nonsense approach. You won't find a house-style or a templated solution, just powerful creative thinking that has a commercial impact, activated with experience, energy and commitment.

To summarise, here's nine rules we endeavour to follow;

  1. listen first
  2. know the market
  3. keep learning
  4. communicate well
  5. avoid a free pitch
  6. do not fib / jibba-jabba
  7. be ethically aware
  8. respect the budget
  9. be proud

And who's behind all this?

n9design was founded by Nick Warren, who's skills were honed in the show-business environment of London's West End. N9 aim's to bring the sparkle gained from this most competitive and creative sector, to ambitious brands and businesses that want to grow. Nick is one of the UK's most experienced designers within theatre marketing and continues to work with producers, venues and marketing teams across the country.
Nick, with many years of work in the creative sector and has reached that slightly awkward stage where he is older than he thinks he is. Spending most of his time colouring in, cutting out, and sticking down, he is driven with a fanatical zeal to keep things simple. Having ticked off life goals of having weekends off and being his own boss, it has been said that Nick is slower around the office on Tuesdays. Always looking forward, he is expecting to be found out any day soon but to date, hasn't done lycra.... oh.

Ultimately, at N9 we ‘Just Do It Nice’ - this is our mantra, a short-hand that reminds us that everything we do must have impact visually and to be considerate ethically. Read all about how this came about and the print edition that followed here.
