Traffic Design Consultants

A studio based in Giffnock, Glasgow, Traffic Design Consultants was founded in 2001 as a graphic design and brand consultancy. The company has received recognition over the years, including a Scottish Design Consultancy of the Year Client Poll award in 2010, a Glasgow Herald Chairman's award in 2012, a Platinum Koestler Award in 2013, a Glasgow Herald Educational Initiative Award in 2013, and Scottish Design Awards finalist placings in the Best in Print category in 2023 and 2024. The team is small by design, structured to allow a personal, bespoke way of working with clients rather than operating at scale. The consultancy's work centres on brand narrative, design, material craft and art direction, with the stated aim of translating client ideas into identities, communications and tactile experiences. Its approach is described as people-led, with simplicity, purpose and attention to detail positioned as core to both the design and the user experience it produces. Alongside graphic design and branding, the site lists a broader service range covering web design, UX/UI design, search engine optimization, advertising, content marketing, public relations and social media marketing, delivered from its Glasgow studio. The team is described as becoming an extension of a client's brand through direct, ongoing collaboration rather than standardised project delivery.
