About us

Hi, I’m Malcolm Buckland – I founded Design Eleven in 2002, almost 25 years ago.  

Five years of education in design school, followed by years of experience in the design industry, taught me the fundamental foundations of creative design on which I’ve built Design Eleven. 

Today, we are a team of multi-disciplined experts, working across every media platform, creating data visualisation, animation, digital design, branding, print design, illustration and photography. By bringing together the right talent for each project, we offer an agile and efficient model focused on our clients’ needs.  

In a rapidly changing world, intelligence-led design has never been more critical. We use data driven insights to ensure we understand the purpose and the impact of what we create. 

Our expertise can also offer our clients an agile mechanism to scale up or down their design resourcing. This flexible approach ensures we are there for our clients to lean in (and out) when needed.   

With workshops and training, I also have a passion for imparting over thirty years of design knowledge. Whether for a new, small design team or a board of senior executives, I provide creative direction and governance to ensure that creative strategies and in-house talent is deployed effectively and successfully.  

Throughout our ways of working, our ethos is aligned with our sustainability and environmental values. The purpose of creative design is not the production of material – it’s making genuine connections with a meaningful outcome. 

Let’s create something impactful. Get in touch.
