XY&Z Creative is a small but widely experienced design agency. We work with clients of all sizes, delivering branding, graphic design, audio visual and web projects. We are based in the West of Scotland, but work with clients across the UK.
We got a Facebook message at stupid o'clock on a Sunday night. A friend of the company, Jamie Szymkowiak, had an idea and couldn't wait till the morning. He wanted to improve the representation of people with disabilities in Scottish politics and civil Scotland. He wanted our help, and we were delighted to offer it.

We quickly changed the emphasis from “20%” to “One in Five” so that we recognised the constituents as real people and not a statistic. From there is all begun to fall into place. We would use stark typography with a clear, clever fractional mechanism.
Launching a brand, web and print materials in a week of solid graft, with a narrative that was direct, the cause enlisted hundreds of supporters within days, the support of Scotland’s governing part within the week and is well on the way to the stated objective of drawing cross party support within the first fortnight.
This is more than a career to us. If clients weren't paying us to design, we'd be doodling away regardless. We probably shouldn't admit that, but we are also big proponents of honest client supplier relationships.
