Whether it’s a visual identity overhaul for relaunch, building a brand from scratch for a fresh new venture or to tweak a few graphic design problem areas, we approach every job with enthusiasm and honesty.
We work with large companies, small/medium enterprises, charities and arts organisations and treat all our clients with kindness and transparency. We play fair. If we strongly disagree with the ethics of a potential client’s brand or product then we would not work with them. We also know our strengths. If we felt unable to deliver what you need, we would tell the truth and we would help signpost you to someone who could.
Why so brutally honest? Because we believe positive professional results are achieved through positive professional relationships. Bridging the gap between designer and client forges collaborative partnerships. Less clients, more workmates. You are passionate about your brand and we are passionate about design - working together should be fulfilling and enjoyable! Despite our varied and eclectic customer base, they all share one common goal for their business: longevity. In order to thrive, the foundations must be strong - we value building genuine and productive ongoing partnerships.
Meet the team
Tom Gair
Managing Director
Tom joined Bounce in 2017, bringing with him a background in project management. He’s our all-rounder and leads the team.
Tom plans most of our projects, gets stuck into the creative, handles research, and even jumps into web design when needed. He’ll most likely be your first point of contact at Bounce.
Chat to Tom about any of our services and he’ll figure it out. Ask him about vinyl records or cricket, though, and you might be here a while.

Sean Humphries
Founder & Director
Sean formed Bounce in 1996 amongst a tangle of Macintosh cables. Having worked in the industry since 1983, he’s done his time. Amazingly, he still loves to get stuck in on a Monday morning.

Talk to Sean about brochure design and blues harmonica.
