Larger projects · Scoped by conversation

Bigger briefs need proper thinking.

Not every project fits neatly into a monthly plan. Some briefs are larger, more considered, and need a proper conversation before anyone starts throwing numbers around. Campaigns, brand systems, launches, websites and one-off creative projects all live here.

01 · What we do

The more considered end of our work.

Campaign creative, brand identities, one-off design projects and creative direction, backed by more than twelve years of creative leadership inside agencies and major brands before the studio began.

Campaign concepts

Launching a new product, entering a new market, or creating a moment people might actually notice? We develop the creative idea, campaign direction and visual system behind it, not just the individual reel, ad or carousel.

Brand identity and refreshes

Logo design, typography, colour systems, visual language and brand guidelines. The foundational work that shapes everything your brand makes after it.

Print, packaging and environmental design

Packaging, publications, signage, event graphics and the things that exist beyond a phone screen. We also take on selected website projects when the fit is right.

Project-based creative direction

Sometimes you do not need another pair of hands. You need someone to step back, find the idea and help your team work out what the thing should be before anyone starts making it.

02 · Why 55 Knots

A small studio, deliberately.

There is no account team translating your brief through four layers of people. You speak directly with the people thinking about the work and making it.

Twelve years of agency and in-house creative sit behind the studio, finishing that chapter as Creative Director at eBay Australia. That experience is paired with a Philippines-based production team we have built over seven years. Senior creative thinking up front, followed by fast and flexible execution once the direction is right.

We only take on a small number of larger projects at a time. If your brief needs more than another piece of content, it is probably worth a conversation.
