Sanders Design is a multi-disciplinary design agency founded over 35 years ago by Alan Sanders. With this history comes experience gained from working with a range of clients and small to large scale companies or organisations.

Since 2014, after taking ownership, I’ve had the role of Creative Director, Design Lead and Consultant.
